      It was a lot of fun, but there were some pretty uncomfortable characteristics in both cars. It's a good thing I took them out, though, because now I know what to do to improve them. The Courier has been off the track for almost a year and the Cortina is a new build, so it's a good time to set them up right.

        I hope to drive some of these vintage cars someday. I'm doing an apprenticeship for Shadow right now, 70s-80s formula cars. We had an event this weekend here at Laguna but it got rained out today, no one drove but yesterday we qualified 3rd which was kewl. Also met my hero car and I died and spent so much time just looking at it.

          That's awesome! Is it a genuine Schnitzer? And what do you mean working for Shadow? Like a shop that works on their old F1 cars?

            It is a genuine Schnitzer and Shadow is a race team that built all their own cars. The guys who run it are absolutely unbelievable and have connections everywhere!

                I mean, like UOP Shadow? DN series and Can-Am Shadow?

                      I met them by accident. I was looking for vintage Ferrari parts and I was told to go to this "unmarked warehouse down the street." Turned out to be their place and I was floored when I walked in. They have 2 projects going that I probably shouldn't even talk about hahaha Have you met them??

                        I haven't met them, but I've always drooled over the Can-Am cars I've seen in person. Unfortunately the F1 program wasn't too sucessful, but the DN4 was an absolute monster.



                        By the way, the inclusion of only three Can-Am cars in Forza (one of which is three years older than the others...) is a complete joke.

                          The DN4 is currently powertrain and bodyless, it dropped a valve. It's just a bare tub right now, they're not sure if they wanna bring it back but it is amazing to see all the machining and rivet patterns raw like that.
