Hi there! This is my personal fantasy carset. It was an old plan to make a fantasy season and here is the result. I couldn't find a nice name, so I've just called it SS1 (Single Seater 1, any resembrance with Formula 1 is mere coincidence).

I've found quite difficult to get design ideas to the cars. It looks very easy, but when you try to create 13 cars in a row you see it's not. I hope they look better in season 2.

I sugest you to use the 2008 NL carshape with this carset for it to look good.

The first season will have 10 races. Here follows the racing calendar (trackmakers: RR=me, TK=Thomas Kost, AP=Antonio Pessoa, AAS=Andreas Schulz, TDK=Tim de Klien, JE=John Edwards):

01. Brazil - Curitiba (RR) *not released yet
02. Canada - Toronto (TK - AP)
03. Italy - Syracuse (RR - AAS)
04. France - Dijon (TK)
05. Spain - Valencia (TDK - TK - AAS)
06. Austria - Salzburgring (TDK)
07. Netherlands - Zandvoort (TDK)
08. Belgium - Zolder (TDK)
09. England - Oulton Park (RR) *not released yet
10. Japan - Fuji (TDK _ TK)

Next season will have about 12-16 races.

By now I have only run the 3 earlier races (Curitiba, Toronto and Syracuse). I guess I will publish all files regarding the races (track .dats, magic datas and tyre data) so if someone wants, he may try to race with my configurations as I try to make all the races have the same difficult level.

All cars were designed by me, except the S. Sports which is my friend Emerson Santos's personal team. I've changed his bitmap a little and updated it to a more actual F1 style (Emerson is a Cart fan!). The FX car is based in the car I've done sometime ago for the GP2Cup team FX (owned by my friend Eduardo Andrade).

Even harder than designing a car is creating a team name. I hope you don't find they all too silly (and let me know if you think they are).

I've used some cars made by DJS, TDK and Daniel Te Hoonte as templates to create all my cars. The helmets were also made by them, by TK and Emerson dos Santos too. The cockpit was taken from NL 2008 carset.  I hope you guys don't mind ;P

There are no menu helmets becouse it would be a work too hard to make them all in the same standarts.

The Comet car is in honour of Super Monaco GP, the F1 game I've used to play when I was a child. The Blacksmith was planned to be called Tyrant, but I've changed the name.

If you don't understand why to drive fictional cars when we have all those excelent carsets for real series, here's the answer: that's why I don't feel happy when my real series don't look perfect in the game (I'm talking about car behaviors, difficult level, track layouts and a lot of other things cause I really bother about that kind of bullshit :P ) and with this carset I can make the races any way I want and I don't bother if they are not realistic.

Check out the GP2 forum at http://www.grandprix2.de/forum cause I'm thinking about making some reports about SS1 races.
