I would love to have some early Formula 1 cars. The Alfas and first Ferraris. I find the cars of this era beautiful and their raw performance would be nice challenge.

Group B rally cars would be great, we already had some it GT4. I would be awesome to see how close in performance the new WRC cars have gotten to the old Group B monsters.

Some '50 and '60 sports cars would be great too. We already have gotten a few that I never would have heard of if not for the game, like the Ginetta and the Marcos, it would be nice to see a few more. It would also be nice if they could recreate the old classic sports car race tracks. Riverside was torn down a long time ago and it would be nice to have it memorialized in the game.

I also saw some images of the old Charger and Camaro with their new version. I hope there is also another old Mustang or 2. A 1967 Fastback and a 1969 Boss 302 would be nice additions to the Shelby GT350R. Having straight up races of the old vs. the new would be fun, but some handicapping might be needed. There could also be races of the old rivals (Camaro vs. Mustang, etc) and their new counterparts.
 
Group C cars and the modern LMP cars should be expanded upon from what they had in GT4.
 
Can-Am Series 60's all the way to the 80's and same with the Trans Am Series. wouldn't mind seeing some of the classic Indy cars.
 
Mid-sixties, so '63 - '67, Formula One; encompasses the "silly" era of 1.5 litre NA engines and the return to 3 litres before wings appeared in '68, "slicks" in '69.

'66, the year of the return of the three litre formula is especially interesting, since there was essentially mixed class racing between the adapted 1.5 litre motors and the temperamental new 3 litre architecture that matured through the season. (most races were won by the previous season's chassis!) It was also the year that the Grand Prix footage was taken, some during the races themselves. Wouldn't happen today!

I second the CanAm stuff; those things were mostly engine :dopey: Great sound, too.

In fact, I like all the suggestions so far! 👍
 
I wouldn't mind racing with Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz and Bentley "blowers" in the 20's.BRM, Maserati & Ferrari F1 cars in the 50's.Lister-Jaguar, Jaguar, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Triumph TR2 & Austin Healey Le Mans cars from 50's.Gurney Eagle, Ferrari, Lotus and Jackie Stewarts F1 car from 1967.70's F1 Tyrell Fords, Lotus 79 & more.The turbo F1 cars from the 90's.The N/A F1 cars from the mid 90's.Last but not least the Auto Union racers from the 30's.

S&S.
