Well... this is a tough choice
I went with the late 90s BTCC (because it's me, what do you expect) and the World Sports Cars, I feel like 1973 is a really under-represented period for endurance racing in sims

The 1950s, never been done properly in any race sim, but the Aston Martin DBR1-300 in PC2 was a promising start.

Funnily enough, that's exactly what I voted for. Apart from SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB of course. Thing is, it's like asking "Do you want coleslaw with your burger?" ... 50% of people are going to say "yes, give me TOCA and classic sports cars", whilst the other 50% say "'Murica, feck yeah" and the other 50% say "where are the other cars I want?", with the remaining 50% wondering where the other 29.5% learnt maths.Originally Posted by Tank621

Every car could be a race car, as long as you have the balls to drive it like that !

I went with 90's BTCC, and historic Trans Am, as that's likely the closest thing to our Touring Car Masters series. (and unknown at this point how much Australian content besides Mt. Panorama may appear in this title.)

I could make an argument for and against all of them. But the Trans American Sedan Championship, I don't believe people realize quite how diverse and interesting a series that was. People hear "60's Trans Am" and I'm sure the first thing they think of is Camaros but there was an over 2.0L class and an under 2.0L class, contested by manufacturers from Alfa Romeo to Volkswagen, and many in between. Including Saab! They also ran at some very interesting historic locations that haven't already been done to death in the world of sim racing. Seriously, anyone interested in the history of motor racing, spend five minutes reading up on it and watching some footage.

I really want to give Super Touring a go in a sim so that was an easy choice - second one took a bit more thought though
