Felipe Massa back behind the wheel of the Ferrari F-60!!

Posted by MDBSnake 
Guess I got your attention now ;)

Got a RC 1:6 (around 70cm) Formula look-a-like car from my dad, in old Mclaren colors (black/silver) [www.osolo.co.uk] , fake sponsors and a Ralf Schumacher (:o) like helmet, decided to give it a full makeover!
Ferrari 2009 style! Driver: Felipe Massa

It's not perfect, I know - But I like it :)

Only one thing missing now. Getting rid of the Konag toys thing. Otherwise :D
Cool car, I love how it's rocking the prototype look. It's got the nose from the 2000 Prost, the bargeboards from the '98 McLaren, the sidepods from the '95 Ferrari, the windscreen from the 1990 McLaren circa Hockenheim(I think, or at least that one's nearest), the airbox from the Williams FW13(late 1989 and the B version in 1990), the flip-ups from the 1999 McLaren and the rear wing from the 1997 Ferrari.

So yeah, a pretty unique look. Nice one!

Ralf was rumoured to be heading to McLaren at the end of '96 I think it was, which probably explains his helmet in that particular car.

Might change the tyres ;) But that aren't stickers on plastic, it's some sort of rubber/hard plastic material with white kind of painting on it, I'll see or I'll change that ^^

All these type of cars carry a helmet like his
Ferrari alike:

Benetton alike:

Yeah, there was a lot of speculation at that time. Ralf had a well-publicised test with McLaren between the Belgian and Italian GPs in '96, IIRC.

Lol looks nice!

I really should do samekind update for my 1:5 car.. Planned already for ages, but it still looks same as when I posted pic to 'GPGames Forum Scale Model Section' some years ago. ;)



Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?
I'd sit on that thing and pilot it around :P
Now THATS a low downforce rear wing IWE ;)

Who's Kami? ;)

That would be Sato. ;)
i have an official McLaren car, 1:10 scale, see my post from March '08 if you haven't seen it: Click

and that low rear wing on IWE's car is a bit like the new-design wing they tested on the '97 Williams at Monza:

I remember that. Pretty insane idea. :D

I'd love to see how thin the front wing was on it. Must have been interesting to drive.
this is the only pic i could get from the '97 season review (have transferred all my VHS reviews to DVD, these are screenshots from PowerDVD).



this is the only frame the front wing is visible.

can you tell if it's a different wing to go with the new rear wing?

Williams did something similar on the FW12 in '88 at Hockenheim during practice

Difficult, but it does look as though the top of the wing itself is shorter than normal.



I had no idea that happened Damas!

Christ, you wouldn't want to test that at a place like Hockenheim in an 80's car!

And with that engine, regardless of revolutionary ideas, they were never going to catch the turbo cars. :P

Why FIA doesnt force teams to use thiskind wings instead of those huge ygly ones? Should have as positive effect for overtaking and for loosing downforce on back end of car.. ;)

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?
As opposed to tight downforce? :p

as long as they don't ever implement the horrible looking double rear wing with the gap in the middle, they looked awful.

The title has come to fruition now ;)



At the Ferrari World Finals Event in Valencia.

Also, they failed the driver parade quite badly
