    F-Reiza Gen 1 confirmed, you heard it here folks :p

    (taking my legally obligated moment to gush over the '06 Sauber pictured by the way, MAN the BMW era liveries were absolutely gorgeous)

    That´s such a precise representation it´s actually the mental image I had in my head :p and as much as disassembling is required for any in-depth work be it on racing cars or racing games, as project manager who isn´t necessarily an expert in every component it´s always a bit unnerving to see everything dismantled spread on the floor and wonder if it will get put together right - and it´s all you can think about until it does get put together.

    Luckily the people working with me while similarly not great at time-assessing are brilliant at what they do, so whenever we´ve done it for milestone updates what gets put together again is always greater han what it was before - and that´s never been truer than it is for AMS2 v1.6. I´m actually giddy to write about it :)

    It seems to me that this update is so big that it will actually be an Automobilista 3. As Duke Nukem said: "It's done when it's done" ;)

    I think the Dev Note is really close. Can't wait to read what's coming apart what was written on the first note. Hopefully we will get new LMDH cars to complete the rooster and enjoy some championships. Personally i am looking forward Ferrari 499p and Peugeot 9X8.

    Graphicwise i would say i expect some improving with the headlights and the shadows. Fingers crossed!!!!

    Thanks Renato for the update, good call spliting the next dev update into 2 additional parts, can't wait to read them and try the new physic/content.

    It would be also cool to get a nice trailer for the release of 1.6 (edited) since it sounds like one the most ambitious update ever, maybe it would convince some of my friends who are still on the fence :). I just hope the update won't be released at the same time as AC:EVO. This could overshadow the new update a bit, since it is arguably the sequel to one of the most popular sim racing games in history.

    I think you're incorrect :whistle:
    1.49 is miles away with 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11 (and so on) in between.
