V8Mods is a selection of mod makers working together for the benefit of the NR2003 and NASCAR Heat community, we include members of The Mod Squad, Smiffsden, Ground Pounder Design, V8Thunder Racing and Project: Short Track.

The Classic Late Models is the first product of the team and is a port of the G3 Classic Mod from NASCAR Heat, we would like to thank DaveO for allowing us to convert his mod.

Special Notes:
In the Carviewer x-files, only the custom paintable parts are "rendered", anything on the car that you cannot customise in the template, is not included.

Chevy Nova & Buick Apollo rear bumpers are reversed, this was only picked up very late in the Beta process as most people who had painted a car didn't put logo's or numbers onto the bumper, it was only when one of the beta team added a number the problem was seen, so on these makes, you will need to reverse the logo/images on the rear bumper to have them show correctly, we decided against correcting this due to the time that would have been involved, and correspending delays.

There is a carset of 32 period cars included, along with the V8Thunder Drivers personal cars.
