Detailed specs for a performance sim
Discussion
Following on from the desktop drag racing thread, does anyone have or have links to detailed specs for as many Noble models as possible?
Basically I purchased this
www.cartestsoftware.com/cartest2000/index.html
which has a lack of Nobles in its database of cars.
What am after is as many numbers as possible, but detailed ones, such as drag coefficient (along with height,width), weight distribution, gear ratios, diff ratios, tyre size etc. Power numbers can even be entered (500 rpm incremements) so actual dyno results can be fed in if desired.
Have had fun with this with TVR owners already for example building a model using custom dyno graph of a modified Griffith gave a predicted vMax matched the actual speed achieved at Bruntingthorpe

Thanks for that. From the specs on the site the only things needed on top of that are gear, diff ratios and the drag coefficient. PS. Oh, its not a game, but there is a Drag simulation amongst its features, so it could work out how much another 50bhp would knock off the 1/4 mile time.
Edited to add - should be able to look up the MTX-75 ratios, just leaving the 6 speeder now. Am sure Noble listed this on their website once, but just a simplified one with the M15 now!
