    Yeah think so...
    There is hope for a Bora (StockCar 2006) or some kind of modern TC model...
    Scirocco, Golf, etc etc

    Lets just say that these are the McLaren MP4/1C and the Brabham BT52.

    If so I have a technical question about the MP4/1C regarding your turbocharged intentions. Isn't that the old NA DFV's mesh covered intake in the 3D preview? So my question is this: do you intend to actually go for the latter season turbocharged engine with the McLaren? Or choosing the old faithful on purpose?

    More context for everyone (I'm not going to mansplain this to Renato :D): Technically the turbocharged engine was in the MP4/1E later in the season. The turbocharged Porsche engine in it was not ready and was thus unreliable. So it would also make sense to make this about the old DFV's last stand against turbocharging that ultimately took over in the 83 season.

    Duplicate liveries are still an issue with the A.I even when 'Maximun allowed' or fewer AI are chosen.

    I hope this is not the case, as it would make the class about as well balanced as the Mini vs. the Vette. The Cozzas in 1983 regularly got beat by turbo teams like Alfa Romeo, Toleman and even ATS in qualifying and only won races because the turbos handgrenaded and had worse fuel mileage. Since the lack of reliability or fuel consumption probably isn't a factor in most MP races, it just means this becomes a one-car class in practice.

    It definitely feels like the 8V version with the cylinder intakes opening over the engine cover

    I think that m0rta is wrong.....but are you saying he is right?

    Renato, is there even a minimum chance to have an Argentinian series as Turismo Carretera and some of their tracks in any time?

    It was about you giving him an unnecessary asinine answer. He can have his own opinion about the quality of shadows and express it without someone being an ahole about it. Simples.

    MONZA 1991. that's the dream(for me) right there. I've not seen this in an official game since Crammond's Grand Prix 3. A fully-realised 80s-90s Rettifilio, the quick-flick Roggia and the 'proper' Lesmo curves. I'm in heaven. I hope the replay cameras will also be as authentic. :)

    Please add global time settings for the default championships. Default lengths are too long, specially since there isn't a way to save midway through sessions.

    I can't say I find AA too troublesome and shadows are usually the worst thing in any VR title IMO....with that said, any work on image quality/performance or VR generally will always be appreciated.

    My personal desire for the 'to-do list,' fix the UI inputs for the set-up pages. I get confused every single time by clicking left to decrease a value on one aspect, say damper rates (makes sense to me) but clicking right to decrease a value on another, like camber angle. Okay, not a biggie admittedly.

    * I think those examples stand but it could be toe angle and not camber....or both?
