The fumes would be nauceating P.S I won't give them a single penny
You mean the mod makers? Anyone tried it yet? Not had a chance yet to dload it
I'm awaiting more reviews. Some say it's great, but I often read the quality differentiates a lot between cars.

Yeah just been reading the thread over at Kunos site. Good news is a real skin pack has already been released at RD as well as a real car names patch I think The pro reviews outweigh the negs so far and you always get the odd neg review !

Next modern series will most likely be the Maserati MC12 GT1 at (random order): - Algarve - Zolder - Suzuka - Virginia - Atlanta - Watkins - Monza And you decide what the last track is gonna be

i quite fancy a modern single seater series but nothing too complicated to setup the car, so you can focus on the driving. Not sure what car that might be in AC? MC1 is a nice car but leaves me a bit 'm'eh' for a series.

MC1 is a nice car but leaves me a bit 'm'eh' for a series. You've got formula Abarth or what ever it's called - but they're not very interesting to drive. Formula Easter is exactly as basic as you'd expect from a 70's single seater - there's 'enough' setup options but it isn't silly

MC1 is a nice car but leaves me a bit 'm'eh' for a series. You are m'eh towards everything . Only modern single seater I can think of is the Exos T125, as the only alternatives are mods. Does this count as an open wheeler? I think the MC12 can be quite exciting, no ABS and a low downforce back end . Formula Easter is exactly as basic as you'd expect from a 70's single seater - there's 'enough' setup options but it isn't silly And it's also not modern . I just can't take the Formula Easter and Student seriously, they look like a vehicle from Dick Dastardly

Old Porsche-style balanced car ( 40\60).Very well made model and good sound ( from MC4 Grin) . Very interesting when driving in limits. I have no words to be contra this choice Smiley We will battle with MarkJ together Grin User choice track must be a Spa , sure

No idea what a formula Easter is had hoped the formula Abarths might be an option but not driven one since AC release Think I've only driven the mc12 for a test lap or two when it first came out.

Formula Abarth is one of most boring car in AC. Too much grip and too little power, boring and ez.

Ah okay, and by the by, I'm also well up for historic f1 cars but sadly I also think it might only suit the aliens who have more time than us mortals to set the car up and be able to handle the beasts. I did run races using them before though here and they were great fun

Formula Abarth is one of most boring car in AC. Too much grip and too little power, boring and ez. It also sounds dreadful - It's like Fiat heard someone say that Nissan's SR series of engines were really boring, soulless and terrible sounding, and then decided they had to be number 1 .... Jeffery - download The Formula Easter cars and have a race against the AI at the Baikerneiki circuit of speed (Truely excellent mod track by the way - we should be using it regardless). Make sure you don't start any higher than midfield and then battle your way through and then tell me you can't take them seriously - I know Formula Ford guys who have all the time in the world for them in real life. They also look and sound good on the replays. Formula student on the other hand is essentially a sprint and drag series. As per the name it's aimed at Uni students and the like, some of the Graduates I've had work for me in the last couple of years have been involved in it - great for Engineering students but not really sure about wheel to wheel racing in them...

Anyone try the Lotus Exos T125 Standard? It's a modern open wheeler, nothing too crazy, but still fun to drive.
More people prefer something like that over the MC12?

I have no words to be contra this choice. Agree with 125 standart. 1 medium compound, no rear tyres overhating ( they fixed it) . But not tested in 40 min, just 5 laps in silverstone. In warm time of year ( summer time) i prefer to drive easy setup cars, fun drivable (like F599xx), and don't wants to siting with PC and collect hundreds of traning laps in setup making.
