In general, the variety and fun factor of the scheduled feature events has been consistently improving, and currently I would say it’s very good.
The BT8 and the Ligier are both slow dogs and can’t be made competitive in the classes they are placed in. Reward cars should not be slow dogs.
The BT24 is amazing. Usually I can come up with a decently drivable tune on my own, but this car had me baffled and I finally gave up and started doing internet searches. Wow. Just wow. The men and women who drove these cars back in the day must have been utterly fearless.

The Rulebook Racers cars handle terrible ultimate Racers those cars handle bad to grand prix Racing the cars handle like your on Ice i haven’t done the last one yet haven’t enjoyed it at all because the cars handle terribly using controller Build from the Ground up Safilo - Safilo Grp.

I picked the Ferrari for the GP car. It was about as undrivrable as a car could be. I kept playing around with the setup and I stumbled onto something that worked. And the car was like playing with an old slot car afterwards. Couldn’t hardly shake it off the track. I’ll probably go back and try the Brabham and rerun the series with a similar setup.

7

If this wo4ks I might even give it a try on some of my other cars. I may have just stumbled on to a great handling trick. Or just something that worked on the Ferrari.

8

Hold your horses nay Don’t waste your credits That car won’t handle any better i have that car it slides like the other open wheel cars grand prix or the multiplayer mode formula 60s it’s. Just a heads up another way to try out Cars is to rent one to avoid the handling models short comings and making everything stiffer makes the cars undriveable only lower tyre wear & suspension stiffness works well with the formula 60s cars but it’s very difficult to control i don’t know what its like on wheel

9

Are you running them stock? I haven’t noticed any problems with them but I did tune them first. Suspect race tyres make a big difference.

10

It still happens stock or Race tyres & stock and Race suspension stiffness i use wired controller the Rear of the car keeps sliding even with increased downforce & the 60s cars do not like stiff suspension the cars don’t turn i notice small details that other people might not notice whenever I slide i react based on Audio because the wired controllers don’t have motors in RT & LT in them i.e vibration if they could increase the audio of the tyres that would be great i find it a bit underwhelming
