I'm actually quite impressed.
On a lightweight car 21% economy isn't even that bad, although you should strive for something like 23-25% atleast. It depends on the car though (aerodynamics, gearing, weight, etc. etc).
I like the engine before the revision more by the way, just bear in mind that 51 man hours (/ production units as they'll be called in the next update) is a pretty tough build for a
cheap sportscar engine, but it's very cheap in material, so that compensates.
One thing to note though is that my guess is that the tameness of the engine is pretty shabby as N/A, but that's more of something advanced. You basically want your torque so your engine power is as linear as possible. In N/A engines you can achieve this by playing with your ignition timing and cam.
All in all, surprisingly good for a first attempt.
Also 50/50 weight distribution, nice job.
I'm planning to make a lightweight MR/MA car as soon as the update comes, and I'm missing a light N/A engine for it, if you want you can give that a shot.
I'm looking for:
- 300-350 hp
- as light as possible
- as cheap as possible
- 22-24% economy (preferably 24%)
- less than 55 manhours
(- as tame as possible)
