Grand Prix Legends.

Old simulation. Dedicated people keep it going. It's a 1967 F1 simulation. The points you get are the point structure for the 1967 GP season. That's it. That's the only score. The season is slightly tweaked from the real '67 season because one of the circuits was so detested by everyone in real life. They had trademark issues for Honda and Cooper, but mods fixed that. No aero. No special tires, no tire changes during a race, no fuel fillups. Change your clutches, ramp angles, gear splits, toe in, toe out, gear splits, rear ratio, tire pressures, ride height, bump and recoil, spring rates, brake ratio, steering ratio, dozens of things, some of them details real GP teams didn't often change. Race against Clark, Hill, Brabham, Surtees, Hulme, Ickx, Stewart, Gurney, Amon, Parkes, Scarfiotti, Bandini, Rodriguez...also multiplayer.

These images are old, 2009 or so. Sim came out in 1998! Compare blue car to the one in my signature. Same car, different race number. In the sim pic, Dan Gurney is driving- you can tell by his helmet.

I was a big fan of need for speed back in the day, but it doesn't seem as good anymore. I enjoy Forza, I have both of the Forza Horizons. I enjoyed those, but I miss the extreme customization of games like NSF underground, carbon, original most wanted.

My favorite Racing game which i had the most fun in Was The Need for Speed Hot Pusuit and Grand Turismo series. But right now None as there arent any newer racing games that are good. IMO.

+1 for Gran Turismo & Hot Pursuit

Forza Horizon is my favorite Forza series. I like the open worldness of it.

GT3 was my first fav racing game. NFS games were meh, but Hot Pursuit ones were always my favorite.

Dirt3 is the BEST! Not a lot of people still playing, but those who do are diehards.

It was so damn nice. With all the short cuts in every stage every lap you made was different than the last.
