How many cars have fallen/will fall into the oblivion of the forgotten because they lack the brilliant career of the 917k, the 787b or the GT40. And the more the time is coming, the more we forget... Sad, isn't it ?![]()
I agree with you and researching and reading everything I can find about 1960s sportscar racing I'm always finding something new or something that only exists in a few photos.
However, there's another way to look at it; how many legends are kept alive by being digitised? As more and more of these cars are sold like art pieces, into private collections to only be shown once or twice a year, these games let us make videos, take photos and even drive them on the circuits they raced on back in the day.
Younger people with no memory of the cars the first time around are still able to discover them, enjoy them and remember them.
Take a moment's pause and just be gob-smacked at the fact that in the centenary year of Le Mans, we have ALL but 13 (actually 12, 1929/1930) of the winning cars modelled in AC. Historic SIM-racing in AC is WILD. </opinion>
Absolutely, in 30 years driving all the games, I never expected the incredible amount of vintage content (both cars and tracks) that we have in a game the quality if AC. We're in a golden age of simming with AC, whether passion is modern circuit racing, drifting, vintage content or street cars on open maps, so need to appreciate what we have, not just wish for more!
