The Cost of Racing is a Custom Shaders Patch Lua app that reimagines every crash as an insurance claim. Instead of just seeing damage, players get a full breakdown of parts, shop hours, and medical consequences for each impact.
The app grades impacts by severity, calculates real-world repair and medical costs based on region, and generates unique claim forms and cards after every session. It even includes a Court system where fault and rulings are determined based on racing line and impact tier.
This mod is ideal for sim racers who enjoy immersive career-style realism, especially those who want crashes to have lasting financial and physical consequences. It pairs well with other career-focused mods for an even deeper roleplay experience.
