Re: The New Boys on the Block-YOU Make the Decision.
This is a brand new team and it was proved several times that buying the best equipment in itself is not enough to be competitive. Steady team building is more important, and for that, Cosworth is more than enough. In my opinion at least. We have no chance of winning races among normal circumstances...

Re: Rider of the Carpathians – First toe into the water

I would definitely would go for a carbon fibre chassis with one extra reliability point if it's affordable.

The story will follow the adventures of an amateur Hungarian racing driver, who takes the chance of his life and buys himself into Formula 1, in one of the most complicated seasons of all time - 1994.

You definitely have to repaint the cars, especially the white parts. I would go with painting for all the logos and details too. YOu can either use masking or print the logos on decal paper, it depends on your resources. To fix the suspension, my guess would be to look around among RC cars. They use...

They also negotiated for Minardi and Arrows, but neither team was for sale. Later however, I think it was the same investment group who organized the sponsorship so he could drive once again for Arrows (Lost, Boys, Orange and some minor sponsors)

Could this really be Pacific's old homepage?
I was astonished when I accidentally found this page.
Either that, or it is a really nicely composed tribute page. It is especially interesting to read the press releases. In my opinion, it's a very rare jewel of Formula 1 history.
