I don't understand neither why Mateschitz isn't forced to sell "Red Bull #2". It was forbidden to copy the cars so STR can use the old or similar RBR model, but I'd like to see someone buying it and making it a rival, actually.
His bitching last year at HRT didn't make him fans... Well, we can understand he was disappointed about the car, but Chandhok didn't need to run around and telling everyone how fugly his car is.
There are things you keep to yourself or in the team. Well, I can remember Jos The Boss, who would get a piece of telemetry from the Tyrrell garage to show that he's right, even if that's top secret for Ken But Jos was a special.
Well Bruno, beat Nick at the Pre-Season Test in Jerez, and you get your chance.
WAT(For the record, they were at BMW-Sauber from 2006-2009)
I could swear on Hamilton for winning about 2 times when Heidfeld came second.
At rainy Silverstone for example, where Robert spun into the gravel trap...
Heidfeld got 2nd two times at Montréal, first behind Hamilton, then Kubica. And Kubica's win was only possible as Nick drove a fueled-up car and Robert only had to pit once more.
Watching Initial-D turns you from a "I know that car's name" to the pro referer when speaking about (japanese) cars.
I think:
Hachiroku = AE86(It was called Corolla in Europe?:S)
FD = RX-7
FC = RX-7(The elder model before the FD)
Skyline = R32(R34, depening on which model)
Silvia = S15, etc.(There was also the Sileighty)
The Civic's being named after his engine, I think...
The later appearing Impreza could have been called Sti or something...
But yeah, GT helps you, there seem to be often cars that made an appearance in a car anime, it seems. At least I had the feeling when looking at several cars of the same model...
I don't. Oh wait, my post doesn't count, I am Quick-Nick Fan.
So what?
Fauzy? LOL! Tung? ROFL! Charouz? How often did he drive F1 car? Senna? Doesn't know what a good car is, and could he wring the car out to the last drop? I still remember his embarrassing exit at the Spanish GP...
Seriously:
If you want:
- Experiance
- Development on the car and set it up right
- Consistent performances not causing a high repair bill
Then call Heidfeld.
Everbody seems to look at him and think he's a nobody. I admit. He's not special.
But do you need to be special? He looks like like he could be your neighbout, that normal.
Do you need to have the Temper of an Alonso? The Aggresiveness of a Hamilton? The Baby-Face Hype of Vettel? The Legend Status of Schumacher?
I don't really. That's why I like him. He doesn't need to play the diva or something, he's just Nick. And he should stay Nick.
Btw: Did you instantly know or did you already peek at the game?
Oh d'oh, I posted the intro, and the car is visible, DUH!
EDIT: The first rival of Rinka and Akito(Yes, our heros if you wanna say so) is Saidou and his Silver S15, even easier to find out. Rinka's pretty tough to race with "her body on the line".
The cars Akito mentions on the way are much more difficult. IDX-2 or something?
Other examples from MDH1:
Celestia = Celica
Toreador = AE86 Sprinter Trueno
Laser(I think) = Mitsu Lancer
There was also a FD(RX-7), but I forgot it's fake name...
While playing Cosplay Fetish Academy, I started Moero Downhill Night 2.
"Yamada Espresso"
LOL! Now guess what car the pun is on, it's not that hard. The main heroine races it, with a 650ccm engine, less than a 1'000 kilo weight, a turbo charger and a carbon hood, I read. Built in 1992, it's a "Micro sports car", call it "The Japanese Lotus".
The solar car story is actually quite sad at the start
Well, I just warned you because I got it through downloading from a member on FAKKU, so I can't say if it works, but it seems you're a pro
Hmm, although Porsche isn't my love(The Blackbird wasn't either), it sounds interesting.
Still advancing in Cosplay Academy. It's actually longer than I thought, the chacracter is still "deepening" his relationship with Yuuki, much better than games that stop after the C, K&S.
Not to mention it's only the second visual novel I've ever played.
