Vintage Nascar stock car races anyone? Just a thought.

I put a few in the club garage. I used the below following body styles to represent the Big 3.

Did a little test session after one of the races with 4 other guys at Sunset Oval!

...but no Daytonas or Superbirds (too much aero advantage)

Doing it on the big ovals and ...

Substitute Torino for Fairlane Thunderbolt and Falcon?

I built all the cars for a 2 spec series for vintage stock cars about a year ago. you can use the Daytona and actually keep it within reason of the other cars. mainly the series was split into real early - 40 ford, Hudson, 57 Chevy then a late 60s early 70’s - Daytona, charger, 67 chevelle, falcon, 70 chevelle... I know im forgetting a few, you could also do a GNX spec league or an IROC spec series

Substitute the Falcon for the Ford Torino and Mercury Cyclone siblings...But no T-bolts or Hemi Darts.

Yeah, I could dail it back with the Superbird/Daytona, but it just dosnt seem to belong on the same track...(so it probably wont be included). But, I may consider the 67 Chevelle (Smokey Yunick) and the 70 Super Bee, for more variety if I get around to it. Basically its just an idea, right now, but maybe I will do a “1-off” race at the Indy Oval.

We will see what happens, as I’m really not into doing alot of tuning right now for a series, due to the lack luster response to the CTSCC. That’s my personal favorite of all race series, after vintage Trans Am. (So if that dosn’t generate excitement, then why bother doing the work for another series? Everything else for me is “Meh.”)

What we need in Forza 6 is a 1970 Monte Carlo and Torino Talledegas and Cyclones. We also need a 1957 Ford and a 1955 Chrysler 300C for a proper 50’s stock car vibe.

But the good news is there is a 1988(?) Monte Carlo SS that can do a proper 80’s stock car series along with the GNX. ;)

I think it’s just that having so many different race series going on its hard to do especially if your trying to hit a specific lap time, to then go and setup another car for a race the next day at least for me, isn’t great as you have 2/3 different handling cars so remembering which does what and when is tricky

I would also put myself down for that, hopefully I won’t have any more Sunday events this year so shouldn’t miss out any more of the races

Perhaps the SVT Cobra R could be used as a substitute for the ‘88 Thunderbird since they’re both fox-bodies, that way you could have the Monte Carlo, the GNX, and the “Thunderbird”.

Cool. I added the 80s and the 60s-70s nascar idea to the Forza 6 thread if you want to have a look.

Yeah, instead of playing tag, we ran a couple of 5 lap oval races.

It was fun, and the sample cars in the club garage turned lap times within 1 sec of each other, with differnt people driving them. so the builds are pretty solid. Just a matter of organizing a race date (or two for a mini series).

I will, do that. Thanks...

Tested that Daytona, and built it averaging @100HP LESS than the other cars proposed, yet the thing ran @10 mph faster per lap!

Guess it will be banned from any stock car racing series...just like in real life.

It does make a great A class car though; it handles very well, and makes decent power. I’ve used one over the years in on-line lobbies and it usually does very well.
