--------------------------------Additional Info-------------------------------
This is a compilation of the evolution of my dad`s car, which he uses when
driving a pilot named Joe Rotter :p
I also included his helmet with and without the great H.A.N.S.-System for best 
protection of the head and neck for the driver.

In 1996 was my dad`s first attempt in making a personal car. Due he loved the 
March and Simtek teams, it was no miracle to me that he would combine them.
As you can see on the car`s decals he also likes Coca Cola ;)
The car replaced the initial Simtek car before the GP2-Edit anniversary came.

When the first real great liveries came in 1997 I made some small updates on
the car to make it fit a little bit better. My dad had no zest again in doing
that and I focused on my personal car, so this livery is not as good as it
could be. 
Anyway, it was good for that time.

In 1999 I made the car numbers smaller to fit in the new carsets.
My dad still prefered racing to carshape making and so no further changes
where made. Aditionally I designed a team logo for the planned (but never
released) first F1GP fictional carset.

2002 was finally the time when I took some time and gave the car a small
facelifting to bring back my father`s zest for racing GP2 again and it
worked out quite well. We had some nice races :)

In 2006 I finaly revised my F1GP carset for a release at last and used the 
new standard for the number positions. No other changes on the car.

2007 brought the community the 2nd part of my fictional carset and I made
some sponsor switching on the car for that purpose.

In 2009 I was once more on a mission to bring that GP2-feeling to my dad
back and so I went for another serious facelift and best fit into the
great nl carsets. In combination with the great work of the community
(actual tracks and cars) it worked once more.


I hope you like the history and of course the car(s) :)
