I really hope the physics are up to it for this car, and the others of its ilk - especially important are the tyres.

It's also one of the better shades of "British Racing Green".
Love that classic straight six sound.

It's nice that we're creeping ever further back, generally, with these winners now. Won't be long before we get something "inter-war"...
 
The only negative I can think of about this choice, is that it might mean the inclusion of the DBR1 is less likely...
 
Me too. But it seems like they are too similar to include both, maybe.

Then again, the Kubelwagen and Schwimmwagen are pretty similar in age and function, and PD has included both of them, so... :lol:

If that's your worry then it will be in for sure :sly:

I mean if we can have every Skyline known to man, I think two notable aston race cars wont be trouble.

I would have said all those, but you providing the list saves me time 👍

That's not even the full list either but anyways the point has been made and I think a DBR1, DB3S. I'll keep waiting for the DBR1-2
 
It's unquestionably a nice car, however it will look out of place on the car list because PD probably won't have modelled any other 1950's sportscars. What category would it race in? Being lapped by Can-Am cars in the Historic Racing series, or racing stock Lotus Elises in British Lightweights? That's if it's included.
