picked up GT-legends on saturday. Its the same guys as the GTR series, just with all 60' and 70' historic racing. so many classic cars, Corvettes, mustangs, cortinas, capris, minis, alfas, porshes, and even a falcon spirnt v8! Its the best best historic racing game i've every played. until someone makes a game on the aussie muscle cars of old, this is the best substitute. 36 cars on track at once!!!

There is a similar mod coming to rfactor touring car legends mod all the cars from mid 80's to early 90's from the ATCC and ETCC looks the goods.
http://forum.rscnet.org/forumdisplay.php?f=1033
Its all in there pics cars just look in the threads.

Also there was a mod released for F1Challenge another sim that had old monaros and gtho falcons but that GTL looks alright.

Its a racing sim as close as you can get to racing real life without being there.
Here's the link where you get the game
http://www.rfactor.net/index.php?page=buyonline
If you do get it download all the mods and tracks for it there free and you can find all these here http://www.rfactorcentral.com/
Trust this games worth every cent once you get all the mods the best sim/game and if you want to feel the full experience get a decent wheel probaly get a used one off ebay for $30 to $50.

Got my copy of GTR2 today, very happy with it. I'm keen on the idea of a AFF race. Maybe we should make a small championship! With points and open to all AFF members.

Here's a list of those interested in a race (please add yourself if interested)
hot xr6
Martyvan
Ruger

Sapper · 05-10-2006, 10:21 PM

Matthew · 12-10-2006, 05:49 PM

thanks swoop ive further improved the setup softened the springs and rear roll bar stabilised heaps on power down and exiting the cutting all the way to skyline the car is dead stable doesnt understeer off in the wall and overall has better corner entry just to prove how good these changes are my new pb is a 2.8.750 can easily gain half a second in that lap and i can easily drive it in the 8's compared to my older setup which is the one you have my best was a 2.9.413 which i thought was on the limit and i could only just keep it consistant in the high 9's.
I feel theres more from the setup if you want my current one just ask.

brenx · 12-10-2006, 07:13 PM

I've got it also. It's not a game that will keep my attention for too long but then I have no steering wheel :( Well I do but technology/drivers/WINXP out dated my 12mth old force feedback wheel. Not happy!

Tickford · 13-10-2006, 11:22 AM

Matthew, I'd like to give your setup a go. Go you send it to me please?

Swoop, stop by the forum, I'm sure someone could send you the password. Server is currently cycling Symmons.

Matthew · 13-10-2006, 12:06 PM
