It's would be nice if MagnaFlow would get evolved with GT for the street sportscar aspect of the sim but I don't think they'll be able to fill the race department.
 
They would be in the offroad race department at the least as they are ran quite often in the baja 1000, Dakar Rally on monster trucks and x-games vehicles.
 
I love this so much. To be honest, if this is nothing more in game than an Andretti narrated cutscene and driving this car solo around a track, I'd be happy. Its this stuff that sets this game apart from Forza. GT may not have livery editors, but it has a soul.
 
I am looking forward to Mario and his Hudson being featured in GT6. Please don't expect it to be Marshal Teague's Fabulous Hudson Hornet.

I gotta tell ya - it's gonna be a short track style modified. I don't expect it to have much stock front sheet metal and the rear fenders might just be arched/radius-ed. Oh, and it will most likely have bulky tube bumpers.

The car was raced in central eastern Pennsylvania - my cousins watched him race at Reading Fairgrounds Track. It was a short dirt track that is popular in this area of the North East.
 
I really like the stripped down version of the Hornet, but I would also like to have a stock 'base' model of the Hornet. That would be wicked to have cars from that era in the game.
 
Maybe this Ayrton Senna first Kart ? would be nice

This car should be ready for release today, as it made an appearance during one of the first 'First Love' trailer.
I'm pretty excited about this game content, maybe we'll also get our hands on the Andretti racing suit...
 
At the end of the video it says it will be released in GT6 on December 19th. I can't wait, really curious to see how this Hudson Hornet will drive.

It was pretty awesome seeing Mario Andretti drive his first love again, such a well done project. :)
 
Yes, the car's going to come to the game very soon - Dec 19. :-) Would like to know how long it took them to model it. If they're that quick, they should model lots of more cars...
