Since there is a good Rally cars, Sports cars and Race cars thread, I thought I'd open this one up to maybe spark some interest....

Please note that most of the links will be to ApexSpeed and you need to create a login to see the photos on their site.

Any of the above cars that can complete a lap at AMP would be faster than the Talon!

If formula cars made a comeback at AMP I would probably get one.

We have a plan but it's going to take time, unless 2-3 people buy Formula cars over the winter. :)
They fit nicely under an Xmas tree!

I did not know that 8O

There's also 2 versions, pre-2004 180hp and post-2004 250hp "Pro" version (thanks Wikipedia)

After what happened in Montreal in 2006, ie the " Flying Monkeys " 8O you wouldn't get me within 100 yards of those Mazda cars.

Just watched that again. I don't know that the Mazda's would have faired any differently than any other formula car in that situation.
I seem to recall some talk about the drivers in that series being rather aggressive... 8O

The Star Mazda was a feeder series where most of the drivers were out to prove something. Seemed like pretty aggressive/on the edge competition to me from the races I saw.

8O

Would never see that many cars at AMP anyway.

I mentioned Star Mazda simply because I'm been focusing on that car / series in iRacing and find it quite enjoyable. Good mix of power and down force.


EDIT:
In car footage
