in-BRC engine reliability is eng.reliability*(actual cooling/required cooling)?
then i guess turbo cars will have serious trouble

How is fuel consumption calculated?

Automation generates both power (kW) and combustion efficiency (g/kWh) numbers for the engines, and Der Bayer's program uses those and the instantaneous throttle input to generate instantaneous fuel consumption. A while ago, I came up with a formula to approximate this based on fuel consumption at peak power, and that's what people in the thread have generally been using.

Can you explain again what each term of the equation is? I know the first two. What exactly is the third.....1kg/1000g? Is it an either/or constant?

Its a constant to change it from g/h to kg/h i believe

And...Pantera body failed to save again (3rd time). So I have submitted one entry. This Pantera body just fucking hates me, so I won't make another entry.

Correct - Der Bayer measures fuel tank sizes in kilograms (because measuring it in grams would be utterly preposterous), so you have to divide by 1000 to turn grams into kilograms.

so I won't make another entry.

To avoid that I usually Brctool-export the car while game is still running and sitting in overview tab.

[Lordred]

modified pit strat submitted.

I am entered with my NA body/engine. I was working on a second car to enter. I am done trying. No sense in submitting the same car twice, and the body I want to use is just a fighter.

[koolkei]

just make something for fun. some random van or something

[robt100]

Just sent a tweaked original and also a 2nd model in. Doubt i will get anywhere with them but thought I can at least compare turbo vs NA. and also experiement with some turbo settings for improved economy

[Puffster]

So I'm just crossing my fingers that the 666cc ecosportster will be able to take on killrob. The first tank should last for about 5 hours, so moderately confident.

Doesnt help if it takes 3 Minutes to complete a lap.
