I have been working on adapting (as I call it, though really it could be seen as converting) a Bentley 4.5l Blower from Google/Trimble 3d Warehouse to Racer. Everything has been going good on it (thanks Cosmo for fixing up the car.ini), right up until I tried to message the original author (PAV) on Google/Trimble 3d Warehouse and just get a server error message. I see no problem in releasing something made for the 3d warehouse, since everything on it is free, to a completely free game. But I also know that RaceDepartment (Racer's current community forum) would probably not look to kindly on this.
So here it is, the first version I'm going to release of the 1928 Bentley 4.5l Blower. Under the hood is Bentley's 4.5l 4 cylinder fed by 2 SU carbs and the Roots type Amherst Villers supercharger poking out in front of the grill. Power on this model is handled through a 4 spd manual unsynchronized transmission (shame I couldn't replicate that in Racer) which fed to the rear wheels. The engine itself was fairly modern for the time, single overhead camshaft, with 4 valves per cylinder. The engine makes roughly 175hp and 400Nm torque. The body itself is actually made of leather to save weight. Inside you get a comprehensive dash, with your two oilers (which I wish could work in Racer). The gauges from left to right are the clock, speedometer (km/h), oil pressure, rpm, supercharger pressure, fuel gauge (liters), and water temperature (F). There are lights, but none on the interior, and no brake lights (not sure if they had them or not).
