Classics
 
Is it me or is taking (for instance) your stock 1960's 4 speed Jaguar E type out for a blast around the 'ring just as much fun, if not more than a modified, modern, 1000hp beast?

I think it's down to almost all the classic are so light n nimble and compared to most of the modern cars handle so much better than most of their modern counterparts....

Am I alone on this?

Maybe we should have a classics 'ring championship? ;) Pre 1970?

I have the 65' Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA tuned to 240bhp and its the best damn car so far , much more fun than any of the modern cars especially at the ring, so you might just be right :D

mindgam3 03-17-2005 10:16 AM

I haven't modified any of my classics yet except my cobra which has pants handling anyway... will have to give it a go ;)

I am with you guys, I always prefer down to earth cars myself.. 1000 monsters are boring and just too fast

There is a Mini Cooper 1.3i, I've seen in it in the car list. And, an exclusive Mini Marcos, that for the ones who don't know, is a special "race" car with fiber glass body and Mini mechanics.

RC45 03-17-2005 03:08 PM

^^^ I have the Mini Marcos... but no Mini Cooper :(

A couple of BMW Minis though.

:D :D good news :D :D. The marcos bodied minis look pretty cool, sadly this one that came 15th in the 1966 Lemans was stolen after the race :-( How about trying to reinact that race :P

That would be the NTSC-J car list then, IIRC, the old shape mini is only in the Japanese version of GT4

cooperluke 03-17-2005 03:24 PM

Stolen???

Isn't this one the same car???
Or at least.. a replica??

P.S.- This one is here in Portugal.

cooperluke 03-17-2005 03:25 PM

Hummm... the side repeaters in this one are different. They're just like the ones from the Mini.

BTW - that Cooper 1.3 is a 1998 "new" old model.

What we need is a pukka 1970's 1275HE ;)

Yeah I agree with you guys also. Its very fun to drive these old school cars. I havent had the time to race any of these old school racers at the ring yet. I cant wait until tommorow ( friday) and the weekend when I can play GT4 as long as I want without having to worry about home work and shit!

Thanks Dan! I didnt even think about that! Anyways has anyone driven the Ginetta G4? That thing kicks some serious ass! I believe its like 640 KG's or 410KG's or something like that (Yeah I know big difference between the two.)
But I tuned it to 200 Hp and drove it around and so much fun! I NEED to go to the ring and drive these today! :D I will be back with my review of it after a few hours when I test it out.
