Hey man, that’s pretty negative and non-constructive. I didn’t think you supported that sort of forum engagement.
While we’re talking weird F1s, add the Brabham Fan Car to that list.
?? Try to think before you post.
I am perfectly fine with the Tyrell coming to game (if ever) as it did compete in races for 2 seasons. The BT-46 ran 1 race and got banned and the March 4 wheel never made it in to a race at all. Neither did the Ferrari 312T6 for that matter. I don’t think I’d have an issue with the BT-46 as the only reason it didn’t race more than once was rules changes.
How do you handle a car that has no available details on how it should perform? The 2-4-0 had initial issues with it’s gearbox (4wd unit) and the Ferrari was nothing more than a media piece.
The biggest problem with the Tyrell in video games is getting the 4 wheel steering right. Most advanced racing games physics don’t have a provision for it, I highly doubt Forza does either.
It’s true a number of the wackier cars have either never run or barely exist anymore. Can’t get much data on the Espace F1 when there’s only one in the world and a handful of people who can make it run.
But dreaming is cheap.
On a completely different note,
I don’t know about goofy, but a class of microcars, kei cars and other small city cars could be fun. After all FM7 had the Subaru 360, Citroën 2CV, and BMW Isetta, and there’s already the hot versions of the MkI Mini and Gen1 Clio. And it’s not just so I can have the Twingo of my childhood in a game.
Something that’s definitely goofy though, how about a DMC-12 but every time you reach 88mph the race starts over?
Sad thing is, you would have to swap the engine to get to 88…eternal E class for that car…lol.
Outside of riding lawnmower racing… (and I know it’s not goofy) I would really love if they would bring motorbikes into the game. Whether it be Motorsport or Horizon or both… I think it would really set the stage for a sweet expansion. MotoGP, sport, dirt bikes, rally bikes, and on and on…
I would like to add the Twizy F1 to this list!
Only if we have a swap option with an actual F1 engine.
For that matter, I’d like to see more goofy engine swaps. I was driving the Clio V6 yesterday, trying different engines, and thought it lacked a W12 option.
And why not EV-swaps and ICE-swaps options. I know it physically wouldn’t make sense, but Nevera W16 anyone?
