Any car from any year on any track, what would you choose ? You get 3 choices, in order please, and you are not limited to F1. 1) 1983 Brabham-BMW at Monza in 1971 2) Donohue's Can-Am Porsche 917-30 from 1973 to..... gosh..... Brands Hatch circa 1978 or so maybe ? 3) 1982 Ferrari 126C to South Africa in 1979, or possibly to Monza circa 1971 also.
Eh, pretty good question... I would start with a ground-effects era F1 car. Lotus 79, Ligier or William FW07 I think I would like to try the Gulf Porsche 917 down the 4 mile Mulsanne Straight. Third would be a '67 GP car, Ferrari or Lotus, to experience to drifting they did on the big tracks. Great thread idea!
1. F2004 at the Hockenheimring 2. Makkinen's evo VI (or a street evo 6.5 TME) in rallye Deutscheland stage(s) 3. any current top fuel dragster in the 1/4. i want to see what 6000hp feels like
1) Murcielago R-GT 2) 550 GTLM (i dont know if thats what its called) 3) 2007 HRT VE V8Supercar (even though its not out yet)
More.... How about a high-wing GP car from 1968-69 at a place like Laguna Seca ? And then a ground-effects turbocar from 1983 at the same venue or maybe Riverside ? Elkhart Lake ? Dijon ? And who could forget Roger Dorchey driving the Puegeot at LeMans circa 1985 or so at a reported 265 mph down the Mulsanne ? (before chicanes) How about Bill Elliott's 220 mph stock car at Talledega ? As was said prior, a dragster or funnycar would be awesome as well, good choice Matt. My only preference would be one of those from the 70's - back when they still looked halfway 'normal'. As far as circuits go, any circuit before they watered them down with chicanes is fine with me.
Mansells 1992 Williams at Spa A Sharknose - preferably at Monaco Lancia Delta S4 Through 'Killer' Keilder Forest.
the Ickx/Bellof Rothmans 956 around Nurburgring NS..... absolute no. 1 car/drive for me the 84 Tyrell does something for me... and i'd love to drive it at what was once the Detroit GP (in better then now condition) the 92 Allard JX2 at Spa... this car may not have seen much raceing, or have much herritage... but holy conoly... that car influcences aerodynamic work even today! thoeretically, it would have over 10,000 lbs of d/f @ 200mph :0 can anybody say 'flat out at Eau Rouge!' :-D
wow... hard choice... 1. F2004 at Sepang or Imola, ok, the 2004 on pretty much ANY course, I just want some time in an F1 car before I die... 2. 917 Longtail at LeMans, mostly just to show Vick Elford he's not the only person in the world who can drive one 3. Radical SR8 on the Nurburgring
1: Ford RS200 2: Audi Quattro 3: Bentley Blower (You gotta love a racing car with the supercharger in front of the radiator grille )
Ah, excellent choices, but let me come up with my owns: F1 1999 #4 at Spa F1 126 #27 at Brands Hatch F1 1975 #2 at Monaco
Lotus 79 , McLaren MP4/4, Ferrari 126ck. At Spa, Nurburgring Nordschleife, and Monza (with no chicanes but with the original banking) respectively.
