Noob's ProStreet Handling Overhaul

Noob's ProStreet Handling Overhaul is came to life with one goal in mind. Changing the unnecessarily sluggish and awkward feeling of the original handling. It's an alternate take on the ProStreet's handling with elements from past NFS games, combined with many fixes and adjustments.

You can look at all of the updates at the ModDb articles page!
Important: If you're upgrading from version 1, use a fresh copy or restore backups via VLtEd for the intended experience.

Oh, and I've noticed the Evo 9 might be overtuned? Ivan's Evo 9 seems to rocket off the line well ahead of every other vehicle even without my attempts at custom perf data.

I also wonder if it could be possible to fix some of the performance values because they seem a bit off. The E92 M3, for instance, has less stock power for some reason, and I've seen an AI Veyron (from R4BBIT's mod) run with a mere 620 or so bhp which is very strange.

Really enjoying how much more responsive the cars feel, ESPECIALLY with drifting since stuff like feint entries are actually possible now (it makes the more precise courses like Tokyo A and Ebisu Touge more tolerable). I do, however, notice some issues with Speed Challenges. First, the cars seem to all bottom out constantly for some reason, even when raising the ride height up. Second, I noticed the AI is far more prone to wrecking itself in speed challenges.

@Udana007 Yes have a discord, my nickname is the same. I noticed that the some cars may gain extra steering at top soeed for some reason. This can happen on grip mode too. For the speed challenge, i'll reduce the steering of more twitchy ones. But i can't make it too slow since you need to be able to make sudden adjustments at some point.

do you have discord? its better to communicate there instead of here
oh and i drove the speed cars you updated (porsche 997 turbo) and the sudden-jolt of steering when making smooth steering adjustments is still there, it happens when you go above 360kph-ish
