Snappy is at it again!
Not giving anthing away, but lets just say I have a shit eating grin after playing in his latest project car. I didn't think he could top the STCC for fun and cars that Knight finds easy to throw around a track, but I think he just may have. 
How does one get said project car
Snappy is still working away and when he's ready to rock, jump on that sign up sheet mate.
I´ve got the Vodafone, I´ll send it to you asap!! Not sure about the other logos...
EDIT: What´s your GT these days?? Couldn´t find you from Live...
Teme, I think I might have taken you off my FL. I have been running out of room lately and we hadn't run any races since the GT4 series in FM3. When I get home later I'll send you a FR. Sorry about that.
Gizzie, did you get the livery I sent you? I added a couple of finishing touches after I sent it to you so I will resend it later today.

All ok Snappy, found you from Live and sent FR. I´ll send Vodafone logo when I get to my Xbox!
I got a feeling that I got the Petronas logo somewhere too, not sure though, but I´ll send it if I find it!!!
Is Petronas different than Patron?
I am definately interested in some Radical racing. Color me excited.
Okay, so here is the idea: Run a Mock Formula 1 series using the Radical SR8 with some minor upgrades and replica liveries of the F1 cars. I put the build up on my SF which is basically just wider rubber and a Race exhaust (had to have the flames out of the exhaust). The plan is to then run the lobby with a 30% to 40% HP handicap across the board just to make the car driveable for all skill levels. The build and the HP reduction result in a car with 300 HP that weighs just over 1400 lbs. I have been working on the liveries and have a few of them completed..
Lotus
Caterham
Williams
Sauber
McLaren (almost done)
Mercedes AMG (starting that one tonight)
If there is enough interest I will start a dedicated thread. I am looking to run a couple of short races tonight so if you're around just shoot me a message. Not looking to start this as a series for another few weeks. Also, I have no idea as to what day or time to run this series. I may start a poll later on. Cars would be fully tuneable but no alteration to the builds. Probably limited damage.
Oh I would love that Lotus version, propably no need to tell why...Could you gift me that Lotus paint Snappy???
Well I think you know my reaction
So this would be similar to Tony's Aussie V-8's with the downgarded HP? It was a blast, the only stumbling block was the start as the cars wanted to stall off the line. But I think it was a 50% HP drop.
Snappy, I should be on tonight. Is the retro night canceled?
@Teme - I'll send it over. Do tell why. I have no idea. Got a thing for Lotus?
@Zed - Retro Race Night is still on. We can race the Radicals before and after. I'm off tomorrow so I may be on late. LOL
Just that one guy from Finland is a member of Lotus F1 team, that´s all, nothing special...
Well actually Caterham has one Finnish guy too, but I just like Lotus more!
i got the paint snappy is very pretty, and i will be on in an hour or so if your around early snappy
I'll be on as soon as the Rangers game is over...and hopefully it's just the game and not the season.
Well I lke the one I have, so thats me sorted :-)
I'll try to pick up a car this afternoon.
Sorry I didn't join you last night Snappy. I was watching a little BTCC during dinner before I shuttled off for an rFactor F1race (haha, what are the odds
), then to bed (only to get up again at midnight for work 
).
I like this idea Snappy
!!!
Just not sure if I will be able to fit it in depending on when the races are run.
But if I can will definetly be there !
No problem Sherb. I know you're a busy Sim racer.
Does anyone have the "Santander" script with the logo?
I don't know what that is, or if I have it, whatever it is...
Found this online...I don't have it but it looks really easy. The torch thing could be done in 5 layers.
Picked up the car yesterday.
Thanks for the Lotus livery. Reminds me alot of the JPS cars of yesteryears.
That's it Oldschool. I just figured someone would have it. It's the Font that I don't feel like wrestlung with.
Depending when you are planning on doing this I am all over it
I'd use the ingame font and maybe just alter the "S"? Is it a major sponsor or just a smaller logo?
Bah double post.
Thank you for the paints Snappy, they are great!!
Had a quick run with stock Radical and the sound of that car is kinda...well, lame! So it made me think: If you are going to run a mock F1 series, then why not use the Mazda 787B, or what ever it was...I mean imagine 10-15 of those screeeeeaming at the track!!! Of course it means that you should make those paints all over again...And that Mazda is part of DLC pack, so ewery one are not necessarily able to join the series...
Just thinking...
