    Oh the GLORIOUS Offy! (didn't that start out as a tractor engine?) and (be still my beating heart) is that the Vels-Parnelli X-Wing????
    (Sorry Chief, I've been offline for months, totally missed that!)

    jump in a Guest Car an join us, next Race is the Österreichring

    https://simracers.de/race-details/f170-master-oesterreichring.html

    The Österreichring is up there with the old Spa-Francorchamps as one of the world’s great race tracks left behind by a changing world said John Watson

    The new Red Bull Ring is a nice track but when you compare it to the old layout it is nothing. The old track was very fast, every corner was a fast sweeper and was taken in no lower than third gear in a five-speed gearbox and fourth in a six-speed gearbox. It had noticeable changes in elevation during the course of a lap. But the track was getting too fast and dangerous in the mid-1980s. By 1986 when turbos pushed Formula One engine power to upwards of 1,400 bhp (1,044 kW; 1,419 PS) in qualifying, saw Derek Warwick speed trapped at 344 km/h (214 mph) in his BMW powered Brabham BT55 on the run to the Bosch Kurve. in 1987 pole-sitter Nelson Piquet's time for the 5.942 km of 1:23.357 set an average speed record for the circuit of 256.621 km/h.

    After Risto lost his engine and Olliver won the last race it will be a great track to push Risto a little more.

    It is an amazing track for our F11970 Cars.

    New drivers are always welcome.

    Giving these our first run at the F3-Fanatics this week. Found the 67 BRM a bit tamer than I expected but maybe just haven't pushed hard enough yet.
    Thanks for all the hard work you have put into the mod.

    That 72' Viceroy Offy Parnelli was looking great, so the 70's Indy car mod is given up on ?
