I love Flatout 1 and 2. I also love RPG games. Do you think it`s possible to put together, the cars and racing style from Flatout, with an RPG game engine, (like Skyrim`s) and make a completely new game? I have an idea for a game like that. 
Well, the only thing that will fit the game setting will be randomised parts at classifieds, I think.
"Rusty small supercharger of responsiveness", "New performance air-cooled brakes", "Heavy long gearbox of momentum" and so on...
