Micheal Schumacher goes head to head with the British Aerospace EAP
in....

'The Race...'

A typical Formula 1 versus something 'fast' contest....

The British Aerospace EAP was a technology demonstrator aircraft developed as a private venture in the 1980s and which eventually formed the basis for the Eurofighter Typhoon.

Michael Schumacher - born 3 January 1969 - is a German Formula One racing driver for the Mercedes GP team. Famous for his eleven-year spell with Ferrari, Schumacher is a seven-time World Champion and is widely regarded as one of the greatest F1 drivers of all time. He holds many of the formula's driver records, including most championships, race victories, fastest laps, pole positions, points scored and most races won in a single season – 13 in 2004. In 2002 he became the only driver in Formula One history to finish in the top three in every race of a season and then also broke the record for most consecutive podium finishes. According to the official Formula One website he is "statistically the greatest driver the sport has ever seen"

The Ferrari F1 Car is part of a package i found here :- http://www.simfly.eu/download_system.php?showinfo=691

The BAE EAP i found here at SimV and is by IRIS.

The Scenery is actualy the Hockenheim Ring which i found here :- http://www.simaviators.co.uk/olate/upload/files.php?cat=10

The trees i found at AVSIM and they are i think FSX trees for fs9, smaller than fs9 trees (not very autumny are they!!!!!)

And the Sky is those ever beautiful HDE Clouds.

I used FsRecorder throughout

Enjoy and Thanx for looking, good luck all Wink

Its not brilliant, but somthing different for this contest i hope!!! Grin

Its something they do now and then, usually the F1 car wins...they put them up against power boats, aircraft, and various other 'fast' stuff. The F1 cars acceleration often makes it a one sided contest!

Thanks for the comments

'pops'

You know with a bit of faffing about you could hold an 'online' race with these cars. The tracks a bit tight but it could be done. But then the cars dont really handle they just 'slide' Flight Simulator GP championship......cool! Wink
