3d Model scratch built by: Nugget & NPanicLoDs by: Dodge33Skins by: PastaPhysics by: BazzaCSP Config by: Valentin KSFX by: Felix789The Chaparral 2 was designed as a follow-up to the Chaparral 1, but the two cars shared little other than a name. While the Chaparral 1 was the work of a company named Troutman & Barnes, the Chaparral 2 was largely designed and built by a team led by race car driver and engineer Jim Hall and his business partner James “Hap” Sharp.Hall and Sharp started by purchasing the Chaparral name from Troutman & Barnes. Starting with a clean sheet of paper, the newly-formed company set out to build a world-class racer capable of taking on the most advanced cars hailing from Europe and the United States. The Chaparral 1 had a front-mounted engine that spun the rear wheels, a setup that was quickly becoming obsolete in the early 1960s. Hall wanted to install the engine over the drive wheels without resorting to front-wheel drive so he decided early on to shoehorn the mill behind the passenger compartment.Chaparral teamed up with a boat builder based in Fort Worth, Texas, named Andy Green to design a multiple-box chassis crafted out of steel-reinforced fiberglass. Hall and Sharp believed fiberglass was better than aluminum because it broke locally, meaning it could be easily and quickly repaired in the pits in the event of an accident. Chaparral’s workshop was located a stone’s throw from the two-mile-long Rattlesnake Raceway on the outskirts of Midland, Texas, which helped engineers fine-tune the 2 without having to go through the time-consuming process of reserving a spot at a public track. The Chaparral team made constant improvements to the 2. As it got faster and faster, its body was modified with more advanced aerodynamic add-ons designed by Hall using knowledge gleaned from the world of airplanes.The original 2A was fitted with a roof and transformed into the 2D in time for the 1966 season. The car was unexpectedly plagued with mechanical problems but drivers Phil Hill and Joakim Bonnier managed to drive it to victory in the ADAC 1,000-kilometer race that took place on Germany’s grueling Nürburgring track, beating big names like Porsche and Ferrari and marking Chaparral’s first win on the Old Continent. The 2D participated in other events including the 24 Hours of Le Mans but it was taken out of the race by a mechanical failure after 111 laps.In the virtual representation of this car, you can select the corresponding aero upgrades in your setup screen, and also choose whether or not to drive with covered headlights. This car has an automatic torque converter transmission with a manual gear selection, hence you can't use manual clutch. However, don't forget to blip on downshifts!
