    Time to.... the AGS powered by Motori Moderni!! :D As a curiosity, Didier Pironi did a private test with this car, in order to see if he was able to race in F1 again, and he still was fast enough to be competitive in F1, but he couldn't find a good car for 1987 and decided to not return.

    Technically, I think the conditions of his insurance payout ended his return to F1, as the terms were for career ending injuries. He would have to have paid back the money awarded.

    Yes, there is always worst, especially the Ensign 1979, and a lot of modern F1 (but I don't follow anymore and for years it is not interesting for me)
    The AGS is not so ugly, but compared to the beautiful 86 season models, it is by far the "black sheep", even the font number is crap, and the test version with Pironi was even worst :

    You have the Christian Danner in the AGS set! He was well busy with Osella and Arrows that year! ... I know, it's just a working model. Great work and I can´t wait for a final revision, with real car specs!

    Keep it up!

    The real designer of that car made it look like it was crash-testing via fax-machine and pancake maker :D

    I'm afraid that your work makes the AGS more beautiful than it reality is, uh uh

    In reality, whoever originally designed the AGS did a much better job than what most of us could do if you really think about it. I know it was a terrible car, but at least it made it onto a couple of tracks. Anything I would come up with would probably not even leave the factory garage!

    Great work Cheif!
