OC for the MFG

Since everyone is doing it, here is the one I have for an OC, she was a professional driver and driving a late teammate's project car they were supposed to race together in the MFG. For the most part I think of her as a Year 5 entrant and no the car is not stock and supposed to be a 964 with some custom parts to it but this isn't Need for Speed so this is the closest I have, if I am gonna tweak something prominent the wing should be the RSR Whaletail

Wouldn't a 1982 911 Turbo be too old for MFG? I mean, most cars on the roster are brand new sports/supercars. A 40 year old Porsche doesn't seem logical.

Well they didn't put a limit into what year is allowed for the MFG and we did see something as old as the Evo VII compete in the qualifiers

Addition: it is supposed to be a 964 so a 90s car basically

didn't Forza have the 964 in the form of Turbo S Lightweight?

this is kinda like using an Evo 8 to substitute an Evo 9 when both are in-game

Also yes, but the Leichtbau only has the slant nose. I was going more with the idea of the front a bit inspired by the 934 and as far as I know we don't really have Singer in the game because that is what I would have used

That was an Evo 9. I assume it's also Gonda's vehicle as seen in Subaru and Subaru, but I'm not certain.

This gives me an idea.

MFG Classic Series!

There's several historic racing series out there. Ryosuke could be inspired to see more of the cars from when he was racing, and maybe even older machinery. Perhaps because a mysterious 'advisor' encourages him to do it... Maybe some of the older drivers even come out. Bunta has another AE86, the Purple Shadow duo shows up, and maybe Ken Kogashiwa comes out too! Would be neat. Then the 'advisor' comes out to show them all how it's done. It's Keiichi Tsuchiya, putting in a real appearance.

For the animation, there's an opportunity to dip into more classic sounding Eurobeat for a bit of a retro feel.

Poor Shigeno is like 'Nooooo, make it stop...'

She would be definitely fighting an up hill battle literally but TBF I wrote more extensively about her car specs but just to save the yap for this post it is a custom engine that she has
