I saw that on the site as well. Reminds me of the Supernow FC.

The wing is actually from an e92 m3 gt2 but I made my own supports. But you didn't hear that from me. Haha. Actually the wing that ends up on the car might be bigger but it's all for a reason. I'd like to get a Kognition wing if I can swing it.

You guys will probably be getting lots of questions from me here, since this is the first rotary I've owned.

Well since I work on NFS, I might try to get it into one of our games first Shift would be fun.. but yes, there is potential there.

Function over form.. but being an artist, form takes a close 2nd place.

hate to go off topic, but f that scion, they re-engineered the whole car with a race purpose, so of course thats gonna set records, and obviously run circles around a production scion chassis lol

Do you model the cars in NFS? (I'm assuming yes.)
I was hoping for an FC in Shift. Maybe downloadable add-on* (hint-hint)? You guys keep putting in the (inferior in every way) 240sx, but never the FC. I guess it's not popular enough. The 3rd gen always gets all the attention.

*How about an 80's Sports Cars pack? You could throw in the FC, 944, RS200, etc.

(more) off topic
This isn't really the place for it, but since you're here I'd like to say I really like Shift. I seem to be one of the few ATi users (4870) with no major issues. (The controls could be better, I guess.)

I've always wondered why someone with the skill and money to be competitive in unlimited class time attack would choose a fwd car, especially a Scion. Does Toyota/Scion sponsor him? Don't hear me wrong, I respect what he's achieved. The tc just doesn't seem like a logical choice for a track enthusiast.

Yeah I've been a car artist since 2001 an am now art director for vehicles on NFS. I'm trying to get the FC into some of our upcoming titles, so stay tuned. An 80's sportscar theme pack would be awesome, it all boils down to how much it costs vs how much money the downloadable content could make though, so who knows.

I'm really liking Shift too, I'm more of a sim guy, but Shift on PC with a few mods and my G25 is tonnes of fun.

Chris Rado has done some pretty cool stuff with that, I believe he is sponsored by Toyota/Scion and does do a lot for the brands image with his drag racing and time attack competition. Would I want to do that to my car? No.. but if it meant the difference between being at the top of the pack or not, I'd try anything once.

Same here. I've been using that Real Mod and some xml tweaks for the G25.
