1992 Jaguar XJ220 Gr.X*

Sounds like it would be a whitewash for the moderns!

If the XJ220 ever makes it into the game I think if would only be an N400. If it ends up in Gr.X, that would be the saddest day ever!

If this is a simulator those cars will not match up on track. The older cars just don't have the overall grip levels of modern cars. Race them against themselves within their own class.

The XJ220 would probably go into the N600 possibly N500 class with its 542bhp. The Esprit would be N400. It's specs are pretty close to the Ferrari.

Thanks. I had a hard time researching for it.

New cars would win. Also all new cars were " flashy" and exaggerated during their times. The 50's had a fair share of cars with fins that we have come to adore. The 80's saw a boom in cars with pop up headlights. the dome zero and Cezeta took it to an extreme . Then there was the " wedge era" ..

Oh I'd love to see the XJ220 return, I generally prefer old cars because of how much I love to analyze and compare details about their design to others of the same era.
