As the 850cc cars were small hit in previous online championship, I decided to work with even smaller engine cars. As the Shotaro's Suzuki Fronte Coupe originally belongs to under 500cc class, it needed some down tuned physics variation and of course, real world competition, so I decided to make the smallest racing variation that Fiat 500 had: Giannini 500TV Montecarlo.

Car as short: Fiat 500F (F means front latched doors) with high tune 499cc air cooled two inline outputting around 30 horse power. Car weights around 460 kgs. Giannini was the Abarth's competition in mid 60's and early 70's and while it is mixed up with Abarth sometimes, it really was own make with several Fiat 500 based cars homologated to Group 2 (meaning that at least 1000 identical cars were built)

The wip car is based on Speedster63's very nice 695SS model and I tried to reach him via email about permission, but without success. However in readme he grants rights to use his work as base for additional modding as long as he is creditted so I started the work on that basis.

Gravin is applying his suspension-magic (Thanks for that, Only the best is good enough for this one. Smiley ) and I have been doing other physics and graphical (3D and 2D) modifications.
Here's the development car in Puech Arnal. Still having alpha version physics.

Later on I will do new physics for 695SS and also Giannini 650NP Modena, which was competing against Abarths in under 700cc class.

Here's some more in game video from now almost finalized 500TV:

This car is sort of proof of concept that you don't need massive amount of power to have great time in GT Legends. This one has just 34Kw of in-game power. Smiley
