Great start so far for Cheng. As long as he can stay in 3rd up till the first round of stops, he could end up in a position to challenge for the lead.

Hey, JohnMaverick had a similar problem when he did me a render for a different car. He may know how to solve your issue

The 'problem' is in how the car has been build. I fixed a similar issue not too long ago for John, you see the car has been built up too good, and not good enough at the same time.
The car has separate parts that can come of, i.e. the sidepods. GP4 only can handle one side of the polygons that are made, so when the sidepod flies off 1 side would be invisible, not realistic of course. So in building the carshape the object was copied and inverted, thus showing the other side. For GP4 and Zmodeler these parts are one sided invisible. However other programs render both parts visible, and a conflict arises. There is not only a front and a back side anymore, but there are 2 fronts sides and 2 back sides on the same place. The programs will show this as a distortion.
My carshapes don't have that problem because my damage model isn't build the same way.
What I can do is take a look at the shape in the near future and prep it for render purposes only.
One last thing that bugs me a little bit in your messages (sorry! i can be annoying) is the use of 'TXT' files, I'm almost positive you mean to say 'TEX' files, tex is the name for GP4 texture files, txt is notepad format.
If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!

Not bad, but it wasn't worth the boost 
Team China
That was a fantastic battle Cheng had with Tobias. It's a shame the Netherlands car got caught up in the battle, as Cheng could've been a bit closer at the end to get by. Still, 2nd place is a great result for us. Now to see if we are able to keep our pace from this round into the next round.

Holy macaroni, what a close finish. Big thanks to Maikel for slightly blocking Cheng, might not have taken the win otherwise. I realised early that it might get close, as Cheng was closing the gap steadily after making the pass for second. Luckily I always gained a bit time during the pitstops, and also while lapping.

It was a good result after all, we just didn't had the pace to fight for the podium
