  • After a lot of thought and conversations within the community, we’re happy to announce that Stunod Racing will not be shutting down. The incredible support we’ve seen from all of you has played a huge role in this decision, and we’re truly grateful to everyone who values and contributes to what makes this community so special.

    We’ve been exploring ways to manage the costs of keeping Stunod Racing up and running, as the current expenses felt unsustainable. We considered moving conversations to Discord or creating a standalone site for file hosting, but those options didn’t really fit what most of the community wants or the experience we aim to provide.

    Here’s the plan moving forward: Stunod Racing will remain open, but we’ll be making some changes to how files are hosted. There will be a few upfront costs during this transition, but these updates will help reduce our expenses over time and make things more manageable in the long run. We’ve been working with a few members and programmers to figure out the best solutions, and while there are still some details to iron out, we’re confident we’re heading in the right direction.

    Thank you for sticking with us and being patient as we work through these changes. With your support, we’ll ensure Stunod Racing continues to be a place for creativity, collaboration, and connection in the racing community.

    Stay tuned—we’ll share more updates soon!

1982 NASCAR Budweiser Late Model Sportsman Series carset.


Carset is in honor of the late Sam Ard (February 14, 1939 – April 2, 2017)

The series was called the Budweiser Late Model Sportsman Series in 1982 and 1983, the NASCAR Busch Grand National Series from 1984 through 2003, the NASCAR Busch Series from 2004 through 2007, the NASCAR Nationwide Series from 2008 through 2014, and is now called the NASCAR Xfinity Series today.

In 1982 there were only 8 drivers that made all 29 races, another 16 drivers raced 10-18 races, and 155 drivers that raced less than 10 races. Jack Ingram battled with Sam Ard and ended up the '82 champion with 7 wins and a 47 point lead over Ard (difference probably being Ard's 5 DNFs to Ingram's 4). Ard would go on to win 2 championships of his own in '83 and '84 with Ingram finishing 2nd in both years.
Carset consists of 62 cars total, 52 paints, 8 alternatives, and 2 player cars to choose from if you haven't painted yourself a car yet and 1 roster.
Set is to be used with V8Mod's Classic Late Models mod available at Smiffsden

thanks Dave
Awesome set; Thanks a bunch; would also like to see somebody do the 1983 thru 1987 carsets for this mod; the bodies here are more accurate than on the Aero88 mod (nothing against that mod)

Thank you, and you're welcome. An '83 set is definitely in the works, DaleJrFan95 is also working on a late '80s set. Once the '83 set is completed and we see what years DaleJrFan95's set covers we'll see about the rest of the years you mentioned. Right now we have holes in the national series '83, '85, '86, '89, '90, '92, '93 and '96 that I'd like to see finished
What an amazing set on such an amazing mod! I'm gonna use the hell out of this!

What a great car set! The detailing on these cars is outstanding. Very few cars have been painted for this mod, so it's great so see someone give it some love and with such a fine collection of historical cars from 1982. Kudos to ThatGuy for sharing this with all of us! If you're a fan of the "Golden Years" of racing... this set is a must have!!!
