Main reason being the car having a mod I don't have or just general uncompability, I'll give it a little thinking and maybe add High-Quality essentials as a possible allowed modpack

Are mods OK now?

edit: oh right......1 wing only, will correct that
but i just realised....this is a ricer challenge. why is the number of lip/wings limited again?

update: it's just eye candy now, it's been changed :)

koolkei, check your entry. That appears to violate the 1 lip (front) and 1 wing (rear) rule!

(Also that wing is a corvette6317 mod, which violates the vanilla only rule.)

(And I'm guessing the wing/lips are limited because dual elements implies some serious modifications and engineering beyond what a 'ricer' would have applied, though I'm getting some serious outputs from these engines with minimal changes...)

16. No variant bodies allowed

This means we can't reshape bodies, no?

On that note, BlahLord, the rules are pretty messy. Could do with some categorizing. Body rules, engine rules etc...

Re: Got Rice? Tuners challenge [Accepting Entries | 10.feb D

I'm fairly sure this means that we're allowed to flare the arches, but we aren't allowed to pick new bodies.

If that's not the case then I would definitely start to ask myself what kind of ricer contest this really is!

p.s. I'm going through all the bodies and realise the Rado pickup is not amenable to the placement of a wing over the rear tray. Is a lip acceptable in its place?

Oh, and the special indicators and the vent strips are also mods. You can't use decorative filler without the mods. I've done what I can with the vanilla parts!

(Edit #4, looks like thecarlover went way more full strop on this than I did LOL. I got to 600bhp and just thought eh, this'll do).

Re: Got Rice? Tuners challenge [Accepting Entries | 10.feb D

My peak power tune was around 600 horsepower, too. Kinda got there and figured, "This is already a bit much, so I'll just stop right here. After all, I can't fiddle with the quality sliders and keep it under the budget."

I know the engine I put in the Surge. That thing's good for 4 digits, with a few quality sliders.

As for decorative fill, I think I managed well enough with just vanilla parts.

Is today deadline for all categories or just grip? Is my entry accepted or should I revise due to probably illegal wing? (once you go mods it's damn hard to go back)

Might as well post my other 2 entries...

The Mariat Pimpmobile, and the Solo Hare Drift Custom

One is really not that powerful but has a luxurious interior, the other has 500+ hp and minimal comfort :lol:

All three of my entries are based on the same car. Parts were overnighted from Japan. It will decimate all.
