I keep reading great things about this mod for F12001 - sorry, but in my ignorance, what is it exactly - what era/type of cars. If it as good as you all say I'll buy f12001 tomorrow just for this mod.

I loved GPL and enjoy GP3 but from reviews I've read f12001 is better so the investment should be worth it. Thanks again.

The cars go as fast as F1 but have no aero, so unless you go around every corner at close to walking pace you just fly off sideways. Looks nice, sounds nice but I prefer the F1 cars myself. Scott A.

I think the mod is fantastic (even tried to drum up some interest in v.1 here at r.a.s), but I love the modern F1 cars. The GT cars do seem a little slow and tedious to drive after awhile. Going back to the F1 cars gets the adrenalin flowing again. I notice some people here who say they only want to play the mod and dislike the F1 cars. There seems to be some who only like a sim (and think it's realistic) if the cars slip and slide and have a squishy suspension. :-0 David G Fisher "Scott A." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:x5D88.15415$[email hidden]...

There seems to be some who only like a sim (and think it's > realistic) if the cars slip and slide and have a squishy suspension. :-0 > David G Fisher Hehe.. that would be me ;) I said that even if a F1 sim is realistic I do not like it... probably ESPECIALLY if it's realistic. So yes, I do prefer slip & slide sims... but no, I never said F1-2001 is not realistic, just not to my taste in driving. As F1 sims goes I think F1-2001 is by far the best... miles ahead of GP2� and F1RC. Mikkel Gram-Hansen http://www.racesimcentral.com
The cars are from last season I believe. There are Vipers, Listers, Two Ferrari's (550 & 360) And two variations of Porsche. It's well worth buy the sim just to get this mod even if you don't like modern F1. I've also seen pics of Le Mans prototypes being put together for a mod for F1 2001.
