Imagine gripping a huge steering wheel with your hands, in a very slim and tight cockpit. Your only protections: a thin hemet, a pair of aviation goggles and your faithful light-blue racing suit.

All around, cars shaped like cigars, on thin wheels, just as yours.

Before you a long and narrow road strip, with old tarmac covering it. holes and bumps are everywhere and security isn't the top priority.

Suddenly, the national flag is weaved by the started on the side of the road.

Squealing tires, hissing brakes, gasoline all around you, high speeds in very little cars: these are times where men were the set-up and circuit were made to see their limits, sometimes at the highest price. Times of bravery, of great intuitions and failures.

Today, I'm proud to present to all of you our work: one which claimed 7 months of our lives to be made, in which real legends have put their effort in (for this, I thank the former F1 driver John Surtees and the former Ferrari chief engineer Mauro Forghieri).

Our work has been focused on the most realistic experience possible, to fully experience the bravery of the era: over 7 months of work, research, trial and error, coffee and testing.

The mod you download here is a sum of all of this, plus the passion which made this work possible.

If I may add something, this mod has been a great occasion to work with great people: the hugely knowledged Ozpata, the greatly talented driver Chaoszero, the always handy (seriously, his 3D works are huge) Smallblockhero and the master himself, Slimjim. We worked almost like a clockwork: sure, we had our hiccups here and there, but work and commitment were never at risk.
