Recently, the Blackhole Motorsports team had an opportunity to conduct an interview with the Carshape and Texture Design Project team (CTDP) about their upcoming F1 2004 season mod for F1 Challenge 99-02. This is what they had to say:

2. How did CTDP get started, and how long has the team existed?
Well CTDP the way you know it now, existed since F1 2002 was released. However originally it was founded by Ethone, called ICP back in 2000. His idea was for a place with the best modders of the community in one group working on different projects. Unfortunately this idea failed so Ghostrider took the ICP and created a new modding group out of it (CTDP). At first there were 4 members (Ghostrider, BMWFan, Theflori, G.E.R.). We created carshapes for F1 2002 and implemented them in the RH Updates (with permission). Our first big Update was the well-known 1995 MOD for F1 2002. We worked on carshapes for F1 RC and Gp3/GP4 too, but we stopped working on these games because they weren't really friendly to edit.
With the release of F1 Challenge 99-'02 we started our first big project, CTDP2003. After TDG broke down, some ex-TDG members joined CTDP.
And now we are working on CTDP 2004 MOD, with more people, more features, more ideas and much more passion.
