Probably the best lower formula mod.

Very good. I had a quick blast round the Brands Indy circuit last night and its very fun to drive. So much easier than the 79 F1 cars I was driving earlier too!

I typed that without trying it but just going on how quick it has appeared on there. Mind you I'm still picking myself up off the floor after seeing the Meganes are number 1. I hate those things.

Although I'm a little confused as to why as the mirrors are buggered for a start, something I'd have thought would be an obvious bug to fix.

yikes In my mind they are the best mod available for rFactor due to excellent physics, sounds and modelling added to the fact that there is constantly about 15 people racing them on the "Dutch Racing League" server.

The Helmet seems to be messed up on mine. The actual car handling seems to be spot on though.

The hall of fame lists mods in the order in which they entered it, not their ratings. I guess the Meganes have been out for quite a while.

I like them. Then again, I don't like the '79 mod all that much.

They demand too much effort and concentration. It only takes a minor misjudgment and it's all over.

I thought that to begin with but now its ok... I can drive consistently but not very fast! I think it's a case of learning what sort of inputs to make...

a bit like GPL (but I reckon it's a bit easier than GPL).

still, fair enough.

haven't tried the Formula BMWs yet... may do soon.
