Description
710 PS were squeezed out of the 3.5 V8 Cosworth engine to propel this McLaren into the fights which would have went viral, if Facebook and YouTube would have been a thing back in 1993. McLaren went onto full attack with the MP4/8, trying to grab another world championship to add to their trophy room. While the car featured innovative technology and an advanced chassis, the team was being led down by engine in the end, which didn´t offer as much performance as their competition was able to produce. Nevertheless this car put up a fight for the championship, especially since it featured automatic programmable gearbox, traction control and a host of other options, leaving the driver with more resources to concentrate solely on fighting for the top spots. At the end of the season, 5 wins across wasn´t quite enough to crown this masterpiece of a car with a title, leaving McLaren with a second place in the driver and constructors championship, despite incredible drives, such as, the legendary drive By Ayrton Senna in the wet at Donington. But even if YouTube was not even invented back then, video clips of fights of this cars are still among the top hits. Step inside the monocoque and go back in time to bring home the trophy the MP4/8 deserves!

the car has strange FFB oscillations (must reduce FFB strength) and very poor low speed FFB in my opinion.

This car is semi-automatic per Wikipedia so 397 had to respect that history... but I do agree that it needs more steering feedback... car spun without notice.

can you change the version of this car? because version 1.16 is no longer compatible with the skin mod from f1 1993. Thank you

Speedometer bug, when changing gears, continues at the same speed. Version 1.16.
