  • The progression of technology and the non-stop innovation to create the quickest machine are core to Formula 1. The late 1960s were perhaps the ultimate height in this ingenuity, when two massive changes in regulation for engine size and the application of downforce completely transformed the Grand Prix Car. In this mod ChiefWiggum has given us all a way to experience a little bit of what that period would have been like, mixing and matching parts from F1 cars between 1966 and 1969! With thousands of combinations and every part changing the performance of your car, there is a lot of fun to be had in this one!

    The '80s mod sounds like it's gonna be 🔥🔥🔥.
    This whole mix-and-match formula car bits idea reminds me of "Victory: The Age of Racing." It was very much on the arcade end of the realism spectrum, but it was possible to build some pretty realistic-looking cars from the early '60s all the way to modern times. Might be worth checking out if you haven't already.

    I have several ideas, how leagues could work. It depends on how random the result should be and do you want to have multiple classes (every part gets a score and every class can use a specific amount of points. in my example I will use the sum of 40 for all best parts together and class A will be use up to 5 points, B = 15, C = 25 and D = 35). I don't like systems, which penalize fast drivers/ winners, so there are no options for that.
    Option A: randomize who have to use which parts before each round (and reshuffle undriveable combinations like the best front wing without rear wing). This is the only option, which can be held without giving all parts a score.
    Option B: make 8 races and use a different class for each round and all drivers are in the same class and can select what they want (e.g A, B, C, D, A, B, C, D).
    Option C: drivers select a class and which parts they want and changes are not allowed. so when you want to be fast in monza and slow in monaco, select a good engine, but when you want to win monaco, you should select wings.
    Option D: give everybody part points after each round at the end everybody should reach class D (e.g 35 part points / (8-1) races = 5). If somebody skip one round, he still get the part points, else he wouldn't have a chance for the rest of the season. Added parts can't be removed (e.g second round monaco, third monza: if you buy wings for 5 points in monaco, you can't remove them for monza to buy an engine for 10 points.

  • @foolinjection
    @foolinjection 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Here's what I would do if I were running a league with this mod. I would be make each part a card... Shuffle them and then have the drivers draw a set number of cards at the start of the season. You then get those parts to bolt onto your car outside of the default setup.
    Podium finishers could get to draw more cards from the deck. Which they add to their parts bin to be able to use.
    As its all luck of the draw, there is no guarantee that the fastest drivers will always get the best kit. You have to build the best car with the list of bits you have access too.
    So you might be lucky and draw a Cosworth engine card... Or you might end up with a BRM H16.
    Either way you'll end up with a grid of very different cars which could evolve over the season as the drivers gain access to more parts.

  • @bob_._.
    @bob_._. 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    How much of a difference in suspension movement can you feel between the high and low wings? The early wings were mounted on the hub carriers so the downforce was only on the wheels (which as I recall is why they were banned, not just because they were mounted up high in clean-ish air) which allowed full suspension travel, while the low body/chassis mounted wings only applied downforce when the suspension was fully loaded.

    • @EmperorLjas
      @EmperorLjas 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@adammercer6004 Actually it was two flat 8's one on top of the other. BRM initially didn't want to develop an entirely new engine because of the cost but Tony Rudd convinced his bosses they would save money by using the 1.5 engine's internal parts (pistons and rods) and heads (after the 3 cam experiment failed).
      The two half's were connected by a central chain, but the two had different inertial characteristics. Rudd added weights to the upper crank to stop it from surging and dying with and in between cylinder firings. That and a heavier clutch basket and thicker than expected block castings made the unit massively overweight. It also never reached it's expected power ratings.
