[WIP] Brabham BT53

[nericksenna]

Some years back when living in Dallas we went to Fair Park as it was being prepped for a shifterkart race using the same layout. Those were just after winding down 5 years of SKUSA shifterkart racing with my son and I borrowed a kart to take a few laps. The track was almost too small for a shifterkart, let alone an F1 car.

As for the new car, if its anything like your previous work I'll be buying y'all a few more cups of coffee when its released.

Sorry for the off topic, but you wouldn't have any pictures by any chance to help me for my Dallas track ?

Story regarding the nose oil cooler.....

"In Canada, the Brabham team introduced a curious additional radiator on the nose that was mounted on the car that improved reliability. Piquet won the race (after having retired from the previous 6 races, mostly through engine or turbo failure), but the additional radiator heated to the point that Piquet suffered burns on his right foot when pushing the accelerator pedal down; The heat had actually burnt a hole through his boots and he went to the podium barefoot after receiving first aid."

Canada...

Dallas...

And here's the 1984 Detroit Grand Prix from the following week:
