Enjoy what we have now until we have it because in 20 years from now we are going to compare V6 engines to the electric whining of straight cut gears on whatever electric cars there are going to be used like we are comparing V12s V10s or V8s to V6.

RSS always deliver.

OH heck no! 2026 is going to be crazy fast!!! Those new zones are awesome!

The cars look really good with narrower wings

Hey Mike.. I noticed that you have an SHH Newt shifter. About a year ago, mine simply stopped working with AC (but still works fine for other sims). I tried many fixes, and I can see it responding to inputs in CM, but it just refuses to work in-game. Did you ever have any issues with your Newt in AC? Thanks for any suggestions I might have missed!

This is the pinnacle of motorsport anymore. Bring back NA V8s or V10s. We're going to see the most artificial overtakes ever with these regs

Anybody else love that the steering wheel on the RSS Formula cars are the Gomez Sim Industries wheels? I love it tbh.

Pity engine still sounds crap

@simracing604 Big Mike !!!! hopefully you can give me some guidance. so i downloaded the new update and bought the DLC but long story short when i select all the classes for an IMSA race, the grid does not populate any LMP2 cars. I saw the new option to select how many cars of each class you would like to run and even when i do that it only populates GT3 and GTP cars... any idea how i can fix that ?

The only way to avoid monza t1 carnage

The car without electric power is barely faster than Super Formula How sad

Really like the way the car looks, narrower overall, shorter and especially that narrower front wing, looks A BILLION times better. Shame the PUs will be so 💩

Where can I get the content manager showroom?

I wish that the top modding organisations for AC would get together and basically be the constructors for an F1 esports league. Could start out with 5 modding teams with 4 drivers for each team and work up to 10 teams and 2 drivers each. If that happened, modders could use their cars to create an F1 single player campaign mod for AC and it would be way better than the official games. Call it Formula Alpha. Anyone out there with the ability to make this happen, the idea is yours... until it starts making money at which point I want my cut. 10% is fine, I'm not greedy.

F1 vs F2 lol

RSS Always does such great work with their many MODS, Mike.... but also looking forward to the 2025/26 version of SimRacing604 as well. [;]-)

Why is the driver hand animation shifting with the thumbs? Lol

Stoked about the return of the mega Bargeboards lol love the indycar look

2008ish

I don't know if its just me but the FFB on this and the V12-R feels a little... underwhelming? There's very little feedback from the wheel.

it's crazy how much I'm used to the drs beep for the f1 games and ac mods that I don't hear it anymore, every time you mention it I have to rewind to listen to it.

Pleasantly surprised at how much smaller it looks compared to the current spec. Ok the weight is still a major issue, but it looks much better.

Thanks for this video, used your link to buy the Formula legends pack, going to pick this up later and use the link again, hope it works and gives you a little something back. Love the channel keep it up 🙂👍

This makes me very happy Mike! Great for GT3 and other series w mods, and RACE 07 is wonderful for touring cars. A few years ago I raced along with the live real life season using an Aussie V8 mod and the FFB was wonderful; the curbs were oddly.....pleasurable. ; )

This thing drives better than the regular 2026 car

These cars feel so much better to drive than the vrc f1 ones

Bought the whole pack. Thanks Mike 🤙

I wonder this car got influenced by the V10s?🤔

Just got home from work, what is this? Oh wow man, just in time for Christmas. How do I put these under the tree?

i hope they make a 12k rpm v10 or v8 version. would be cool to see a mix of those with turbos and hybrid systems although that would be a LOT of work

cool, when can we get our hands on this?

Mike, you lucky lucky barsteward. 😁

This is messing with my head, because looking at the car, and hearing the sound.....is like I cant see that car making THAT sound lol

a couple of corrections on the video...DRS is actually active aero. Both front and rear wings flatten out when it is active. 2nd, the car has a KERS system, so their is a "hybrid boost" available

Is it confirmed that these cars will have v12 engines?

Interesting that both RSS and VRC seem to release similar cars… VRC via another company though. Why did RSS include Hybrid in the name of this car by the way?

Why is it called hybrid though if it's just V12?

V12. No No No. We want the V10. Its sound is so much sweeter!

Unpopular opinion, but I think V12 F1 cars sound better than V10 ones

Fuck it, this is what V12 was for. This twisted game needs to be reset, bring back the screaming engines!

This sound is INSANE

Looking mate! You’re making a lot more use the full track width here! It’s obviously easier in Formula cars when you can see the wheels fully, but if you work out what points on the dash or hood in GT/Protypes/road cars etc… that you can use as references that align with the full width of car you’ll find all that ‘free’ lap time that you’re finding here. Driving well mate! 😉✌🏼

So RSS moved onto fantasy cars now? 2026 regs are not finalized until next summer and V12 is unlikely to be part of them

This is awesome. Imagine if they made some classic stuff like 240Z, 300zx twin turbo, etc. I'd pay a lot.

Just purchased the GTM pack with your link. Just a little support for the content over the years. Happy racing!

Ooo noice. Reminds me of the V10 Formula car from Rfactor 2

Hello it is the me again I get notifications and I’m subbed and like every video I watch to help your channel!❤

cool video 👍👍

'Famous Last Words' is the title of this race Mike! Lol!

The grimace car is Hugh Chamberlin's team I think, hence the advert for the still excellent Daily Sportscar on the back, something you showcased repeatedly when behind it :D
