I was just wondering if Biante are considering bringing out some of the older V8s. I would love to see some of the cars from around 1996 - 1999. I'd like to see Lowndes' first championship winning car, DJR ELs and I also liked the look of Tony Longhursts Castrol falcons. Does anyone share my opinion?

hey FordFan01

Have a look at the New Models Showroom mate. There is a DJ Sierra there, and I'm sure everyone's seen - the VR/VS Mould. Apparently that'd going to be the 95 Brock/Mezera MHRT Bathurst car.

I'm guessing more VR/VS cars will come out subsequently.

Admin, please give us a rough list of VR/VSs that are going to be produced.

Thanks :)

All the Classics....
EL's
VR
VS

We DO take notice of your input.

One car that we missed was Craig's VT98 car. That is being worked on now.

VR/VS will include Lowndes/Murphy, Brock/Mezera, Brock/Skaife and Craigs Championship cars. We now have full data and pics of VN Commodores.

EL's will include DJR and others. Plus we now have a license for.................... second thoughts, I had better wait a while before mentioning this one!!

Thanks for the list admin, i appreciate it.
btw the way - you said Lowndes VT96car? do you mean the VT98car? or the VR96car??? (im guessing the VT98, because that'd make sense that you "missed" it, it's also a car I've urge Biante so many times to make......
when will the VR/VSs come out roughly? this year? or later? many thanks.

Thanks, thekid...ever vigilant!! I did mean 1998.

No fair Admin, you cant tease us that much without at least a bit more of a clue. Anything will do.

What time frame are we looking at for these older models ??

I would love to see a Brock VN. But i really want a Brock VK commodore. This is my favourite car of alltime.

Clue:

Its a 60's car, normally quite docile, but Colin got hold of it first and then Frank fine tuned it and the result was quite a hot machine.

Admin,

It's great to see Biante bringing out the older cars, could you give me an idea of the EL's that might be made beside the DJR falcons.
