The car's description at Legendary Supersport would be nice IMO.

I'll get right to it.

I'm guessing if R* really want to sell these things, then they will fix them. Quick.

All the parts of this car are extras. Meaning a glitched bodystyle one looks REAL interesting

Sorry I couldn't paint the wheels. Stock wheels don't seem to hold paints :(

I'm getting tired of people telling me that a kreiger or a deveste8 is faster than these things, sure in a str8 they aren't the fastest (mainly because it's not BUILT for top speed) but on a track these things will destroy anything put against it. And if anybody wanna test this out when they are released into the game by all means buddy let's go I'm down! Theres a very good reason why these are getting their own class to themselves.

Wholly different disciplines, with different approaches and philosophies.

 

Here's a very good article pointing out the differences.

F1, or Formula One, is the highest echleon of motor racing. It’s a championship for both drivers and car constructors where they build the fastest and most expensive racing cars in the world. They race on around 20 circuits circling the globe. It’s directly descended from the oldest car races in Europe, and is the most prestigious championship as a result.

Indycar is a primarily American championship based mostly on oval racing, and has its roots tied to American dirt oval racing. F1 cars and Indycars superficially look similar because they’re both single-seat open-wheel machines, but the similarities end there. They’re worlds apart in design and performance. 

 

 

it is annoying me more and more the R88 essentially only has classic F1 liveries, and only two legitimately Indy-inspired ones. The person who designed it gave it Indy-style wing options, they clearly wanted it to look like an Indycar. Why only give it mostly F1 liveries? No red Budweiser, no gold and white Miller Lite, no red white and blue Dominos Pizza, no red white and navy Valvoline, no yellow red and black Pennzoil, no red and blue STP, no green and white Skoal Bandit. At most there’s a 70s McLaren, a 70s Sunoco, an 80s Dutch Treats, Fittipaldi’s Marlboro cars, and an 80s Coors Light. But the latter three are so generically modern and mostly F1-inspired that it only looks similar in a passing glance. not to mention none of the new racing wheels are based on the iconic aero-disks of the 80s and 90s.

I don’t even like Indycar and I’m pissed off, can only imagine how actual Indy fans feel.

Thx for the explanation! ^_^

I swear half the people on this page know nothing about f1 or about cars in general ,take a look at the frame and the defusers in back along with the whole back the most resemble of this car is to a 1986 lotus 98t the back and frame are almost identical yet most of you are saying this is a 91 get your facts straight. Now yes the nose tip and splitters in the front are different that’s because rockstar can’t make the car the exact same due to no licensing with lotus or any car in reality

No GTA:O car is gonna be a 100% dead-ringer to a real one, of course there's gonna be differences. There's reason to believe it's closer to a 98T or a 91 depending on what you think.

 

 

Also are we gonna ignore the fact that this car sounds like it has a DFV?

It’s got the front of a March 83C Indycar, a few wing and sidepod options of various Indycars of the early-mid 80s, and a few wing options of a 1985-1987 generic F1 car. The engine cover, cockpit, and rear diffuser area are of the Lotus 97T/98T. The liveries are mostly 80s F1 liveries with some hints of Indy liveries of the same era. And it’s got the longer ‘safety cell’ wheelbase of a 90s Indy/F1 car.

Overall it’s a mix of F1 cars and Indycars of the mid 80s, and can be made to more look like either depending on the mods you apply.

It hurts me to see this fine piece of machinery being ignored, I'm picking this up unread of the PR4 simply because of that John Player Special livery.

 

In fact, I might buy a few of these.

Alright y'all, its time to start getting excited about this one... I am ready to find out which one is better! I 100% love the design of the R88 better then the PR4, thoughts?

Interesting.. this one not being branded Progen but Ocelot, and the redwood livery available to recreate one of Lauda's McLarens is much better than the PR4's as it doesn't have the blue stripes, but a faint gold.

I have to admit that thoses blues lines on the PR4 trigger me a lot... I know that they're part of the Redwood branding identity in the game but some car juste have the red/white livery (Hello Itali GTB.) if only they could have been at least gold like the R88 it would have been much better imo ! 

And can't wait to have this little R88 in my garage !
