KOH pretesting

So I am working on a complicated race based on the King of the Hammers race.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W18ZZsQbc7o

What I need are submissions to test against the calculator.

very high weight Sportiness, Drivability, Off-Road
Moderate weight Comfort (the driver will drive as hard as they can without peeing blood later)

Basics
Tech year 2016
Advanced safety +5 quality
Any Vanilla or Steam body
$30,000 cost on the overview page

These "rules" wont be hard set at this point so feel free to submit whatever you want (actually please do)

Submissions
Model: KOHT username
Trim : (your choice)
Engine Family: KOHT username
Variant: (your choice)

You can submit as many as you want, I will give feedback as to how each submission did publicly.

Current feedback,
I made a sedan for the efficient future contest (not quite done), it took it 3:19:20.17 seconds to complete the 14.95 mile track
A truck I threw together did it in 2:19:48.92 which shows I still need to tweak it but its also meant to be tough.

So you're basically looking for stats like these?

Re: KOH pretesting

I should also mention that the cars get damaged in each section which affects the stats and how it does on the next section. (still needs the most revision)

Re: KOH pretesting

Pretty much.

What is the engine reliability at, as well as the quality slider for the tires and wheels, body, frame, and suspension
And its top speed

Re: KOH pretesting

That's not my submission, just an offroad supercar I made that seems to fit what you're looking for. 2:22 on the Automation track at half your max cost. Wheels and suspension are at +2, body at 0, frame at +2. Engine reliability is 69.2. 0-100 km/h is 6.5 seconds (compromised that for increased offroad capability) and top speed is 345.3 km/h (214.6 mph).

Re: KOH pretesting

I might be interested. But clarify please, I've looked on the internet briefly, and I cannot quite place whether this is a baja or a rock crawling competition :)

Re: KOH pretesting

Koolkei: no hard limit or deadline at this point, just working out the bugs.
The track has 10 parts similar to banhammer head, the slingshot, Bavarian bend on the Automation test track for a total of 14.95 miles each section beats up the vehicle at least a little bit.

Carkiver: I didn't figure it was, but since it was there I thought I would run the numbers to see how it came out.

Squidhead: Its both.

Re: KOH pretesting

Ok! Gotcha! And we may submit our cars whenever, rules are finalized. :) Will there be a pre-season test race? A few shakedown runs would be nice.

Re: KOH pretesting

Were doing the shakedown/bug testing now, I need to tweak things on my end for sure but need a bunch of different submissions and approaches to make sure its all working properly.

Re: KOH pretesting

I'll submit the Velociraptor for your bug testing, not as an official submission. There's a 2016 trim on it that costs a lot more than what you specify (with 0 comfort), so up to you if you want to try that as well.

Re: KOH pretesting

Ouch, I think your driver already quit, some kind of comfort is necessary.
