I beleive that the 300 SEL is one of the first, if not THE first, cars modified by AMG to hit the track and compete. I like the car and will definitely be picking one up. I'll be grabbing one of the wagons as well. While I'm not a fan of wagons in general, this one has an actual race history in the BTCC. Cars with some race history should be in FM4. Not that others shouldn't, mind you...but if it raced on the track in real life then I'd like to get a shot at the virtual version. The RX-7 has the potential to be a really surprising DRAG car. Live axle and all..
Anyone interested in creating a series in R3 class running the
GT3 Z4, 458 Italia, Lambo, Ford GT, and that new SLS GT3. I have a build for the Ultra R8 that may be able to hang with those cars. And if we wait till May we can get the 911 RSR GT3 in the mix too. We could do an FiA GT1 World Championship type thing. Eh?.... Anyone.
All that is missing is the MP4 12C GT3 race car. Can't beleive we didn't get that one.
Oh, and if we realy would like to we could figure out a HP handicap for the C6R and the Aston DBR to bring them into the mix. I tried it last night with the C6R and 25% slowed it down a bit.
HP handicaps in this game are strange. Not sure how well they work or whether they affect the cars Torque numbers...anywho.

Run one with and without at the drag strip Snappy, and then go back and look at the telemetry, it'll show torque as well as HP...
That's good news oldschool. I did a quick test at Silverstone with the cars and the Vette was still quickest by about 2 seconds as compared to the slowest one in the bunch. I only did two laps in each car so it probably doesn't mean much. Especially since I drove the C6R last and was feeling comfortable with the R3 cars at that point. Then I got into running the Scion over at Maple Valley with all the guys. Good fun that was. I'll try the handicapped C6R again and see how the other cars measure up.
I tend to keep an open mind on the car packs. I did get a season pass as I knew I would end up buying them all anyway so why the hell not, plus I HAD TO HAVE the Muscle car pack.
For me, the Volvo T5R is what I have been waiting for (owned a couple of these back in the 90's) the Caddy because it is going to be a hoot, the 300SEL as I love the idea of big cars that go fast and the others...well... I will still give them a go and might well surprise myself.
As with all franchise there is a certain feeling that you have to have the latest and greatest packs but I would buy another season pass if it became available just for ease. And no. I am not a T10 fanboy.
Maybe a FanMan.
But definatley not a FanBoy.
Look forward to the first all Caddy 'Ring battle...

I really must get my head around this forum, I have already put my name down for this (I think...) company permitting
Well I know we are going to make the perfect pair then because I HEART Muscle cars and cant drive FWD for love nor money...
Mind you I am not that good at RWD either...
Better get some practice in!
As for the Reggata at the Ring I think that has got some legs, will start on my 'special ring tune' immediatley.
P.
Yup just checked and your there right enough, Don't worry mate takes a while to get your head round things I still make a fool of myself, always practicing the wrong car, or the wrong track or turning up on the wrong day/time/month, I can't tune, or paint and can't overtake...but I get by

with a little help from my friends...
Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends...
Drove Jonesy's B class Cadillac, tentatively named The TiTanic, and loved it at Infineon long, which is not an easy track for cars in general, so give it a whirl guys, it's decent.
And the infamous Estate.
