What really matters to me is how much data was put into a car.
The way I see it, feeling tells nothing unless an actual race driver says "hey, that car is really on pont" It's only to drive around there in the evening to see the beautiful vintage street lamps reminiscent of a historic town at Christmas to appreciate just how much attention to detail they put into their tracks, so I presume an equal amount was put into their cars, even if, as with any car when discussing physics, the attention to detail can only really be felt, not seen. It was also developed by the original developers, Image Space Incorporated, who also I believe made Monaco '66. The car feels natural for its era, and it behaves how you would imagine. The FFB is quite weak when driven slowly, I presume due to the lack of downforce and the relative lightness of car, but at speed around the corner you can really feel it, especially exiting Stavelot at Spa '66, it pushes you in one direction then immediately pushes you in the other as you correct it. I practiced and raced countless laps in the Lotus 49 in iRacing, a similar but more powerful car from the same era, but the BT20 far surpasses it in terms of physics and FFB. From the moment I loaded it and started driving, it just felt 'right' from the start. Like most, I've never actually driven a 1960's F1 car (or any other F1 car for that matter), but it handles exactly like I imagined it would, and this car along with Spa '66 were the only real reason I bought rFactor 2.
