That's why I urged Papy to do a "Can-Am: The Early Years" game (rather than the McLaren & Porsche parades it became in the later years): de Dion axles, tiny tires, wings, suckers, auto trans, streamliners, home-brews, turbos, everything but front-engined cars (where was Panoz when we needed him?).

Or maybe Formula Hemi. But then of course DC would call out the lawyers... ;-) Interesting mod; bit of an oddity in the GPL firmament in that it's not intended to be historically accurate. But it's quite fun nonetheless. It'd be interesting to see what the TC chassis alone would feel like with maybe a '67 DFV in back. As is, the things have so much motor that the power completely dominates the driving experience. First thing I thought of in my initial outing was that it reminded me of going from a 250 to a 500 back in my motocross days. Everything *looked* about the same, but; A) you suddenly developed a lot more respect for the throttle, and B) your old braking points no longer applied! I'd have preferred they left the wings off the first release since they don't do anything yet, but I gather downforce is in the pipeline for a later update. They sure need some; as is, there's such extreme weight transfer that the front end has a tough time finding bite if the rears are getting any. Bet with stickier tires the darned things would do wheelies. SB
I would like to see an oddity mod..the STP Turbine cars, the Vels- Parnelli Xwing cars....the 'could have beens with the should have beens' Sounds cool Dave. How about a Tyrell-Ford P34? I keep hoping someone will mod one up for us. "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
