Its an amazing car, the relationship between the aero and the slicks, you can really feel when one is more dominate than the other and then add the crazy horsepower, all packaged in a super sim,   if this is how they were in real life......wow to the people that drove them.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing I now have a new found respect for anyone who drove it and even more for Senna.

Can't drive this car at all, the turbo is way too laggy and overpowering.

I've given this a short trial run yesterday, it's a serious beast that's for sure.  Plus you need to get used to keeping the revs up, otherwise it just doesn't go.

After getting used to driving this at 100% boost, it makes the F40 S3 feel tame... I think the 98T is my favourite car for a bit if fun driving.  Taking it around nordschleife when the sun is setting is really an experience.

Actually the F40 S3 version isn't bad.  The S1 on street tyres is more of a handful IMO.

Yep insane car, only just discovered how to change the boost... 1 to 0 keys under your function keys.... way fun setting on 10% and its just a slug of a car... go to 100% and whoa! A tiny bit to much power.

Latest update has allowed servers to force damage settings so you may need to learn to drive it without killing it.  ;)

I'm trying not to drive it too often.
It's like the best toy in the box. Only for special occasions. Besides, insurance are not interested in covering me in it.




Come on Marty, put em on your server lol

What track should I put it on? Also want to have a go in the robins. Maybe some of each should be a good mix.

I'd love to see this, like an open day, Maybe nords? might be a bit painful in the Robin top speed of 110kmh
