1954 Endurance Sports Cars (modded Cobra)

Based on the original ISI/Studio397 1967 427 Cobra, modified by woochoo & mantasisg to resemble a classic French 24-hour endurance race from 1954 (there were no Cobras in 1954).

Modified:
- Race-appropriate liveries
- Physics have been significantly developed by mantasisg , starting from the limited initial weight/inertia/gears/engines changes by woochoo.
- Brakes (most cars have pseudo drum brakes: prone to fade)
- AI have been tweaked by mantasisg
- Several evocative body meshes have been pushed and pulled from the original 427 Cobra mesh (and some added parts like fairings and fins).
- Additional headlights.
- Slightly modified Cobra driver model and new helmet/goggles, with some specific helmet colours.
- Sounds tweaked to lengthen audible distance, and louder backfires, and some other minor changes.
- Classes implemented (s8.0, s5.0, s3.0, s2.0, s1.5, s1.1, s0.75) for opponent selection and results classification.
- UI Menu listing changed (1954 Endurance) and sub-categorised by class (icons not yet updated).
- Not using new PBR livery materials, or wet body/wind screen system.

The car entries have race numbers in general order of engine capacity, with the lowest numbers having the largest engines. This is useful when choosing a car, and manually adding AI to an event.
