| 1982 F1 cars were on rails anyway, it was the last year of skirts and ground effects. I can't say a 1982 F1 series is very appealing to me as a simracer : most of the tracks were dreadful autodromes, big gaps in performances between the cars, turbochargers, ground effects = boring | |

| I had V0.90 first and updated it with 0.92 then 092B:
V.090 http://www.varjanta.com/forum/1982-public-beta-released-t2359.html
Of course, ground effect meant the cars were on rails when running at higher speed but at lower speeds the ground effect should not be working and there should be a threat of loosing the rear end if you slam on the accelerator, yet it sticks and continues with barely a slide.
And I quite like the 1982 calendar, apart from the USA circuits...which suck. | |

| Gaps in performance can't be as bad as the 91 mod? Might have to D/L as I love the Ligier from that year. Would be fun to try | |

| On fast tracks my guess would be even bigger gaps than 1991 yes. Insane power difference between the turbo and atmo cars | |

| well the latest LE edition is not like on rails I can tell you! I tried it with some other guys and you had to lift at the bottom of Eau Rouge or else your car would crash out Yeah...hope an HE with sort of same physics will come some day | |

| There are some graphical glitches though. I ran the Arrows and the whole nose cone was missing(or rather see-through). That test "table" wing on the Arrows is insane though | |
