the Parnelli is on the Way.......

Shouldn't be the USA flag of the right side of the car on the opposite way? (the stars in front and the bars behind)

That is, in fact, the convention: flag pulled back by the wind, so, stars always on the side of the front of the car.
 
yeah, but there are more Pics with Stars to the Front

lol I was just going to post that same shot to counter my own argument! Also there appears to be at least two different sizes of the flag decal. The F1 cars of this era, minus the huge air intake, probably aligned very closely to the Indy cars of the day. The Mclaren Indy designs especially.
 
Everytime I see the Parnelli I remember this story ....

“So 1976 comes along and I’m on the grid at Long Beach, third race of the season, and Chris Economaki puts a mike to me just before the off and says, ‘Mario, how does it feel starting your last F1 race? Vel Miletich just told me he’s pulling the plug on F1 to concentrate on Champ Cars.’

“No-one had said anything to me. I felt real stupid. I was so upset I almost didn’t put the thing in gear. After the race I didn’t even want to talk to them, I just went back to my hotel. Next morning I’m having breakfast all by myself, and Colin’s having breakfast two tables away, all by himself. He’s just had the worst weekend: one of his cars qualified last, and crashed out on the first lap, the other didn’t qualify at all. We look at each other, my chin’s in my socks, he’s even more miserable, and he comes over to join me. So the wheels start rollin’, and he says, ‘Drive for me, Mario.’ I said, ‘But you got a car that may just be slightly quicker than a London bus. We got some work to do here.’ We shook on that. I felt a horizon opening out. I knew Colin could make me World Champion.
 
I meant to say that the e-car (icon) appears automatically in the F1-75 list.
I didn't select or load it there.
It's just the icon, in the box it's the correct parnelli no.27
The e-car also has the number 27, is it because of that ???
No idea.
If I unsubscribe from the e-Mod, will it be reloaded with the next rF2 Strat ...?
Strange.

try unsubscribing/subscribing the 75er mod.
 
If there was a FE on track and a 75 car came behind it should mean an automatic blue flag, like get out you Duracell radiocontrol toybox :rolleyes:
