KOH accepting entries (Times posted)

The King of the Hammers is a combination dirt rally race and rock crawling race (sometimes called rock bouncing).

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

Max cost $25,000
Year 2016
Entertainment: none. (it provides the wrong kind of comfort)
Cooling >= required

Steam mods compatible.

The way the calculations are done for capability
your stat/stage stat
for off road only (your stat/stage stat)^2 That's why Hell is so brutal
The time is divided by the lowest, the top speed is multiplied by the lowest.

The damage rating for the section is divided by the lowest, except for when comfort is lowest, it is multiplied. (if your driver is not driving it to the limits its not taking as much damage)

Suggested minimum stats, you can come in lower but you should be higher if you can.
Drivability 30
Sportiness 20
Comfort 20
Off-Road 50

Submission format
Model: KOH username
Trim: car's name

I'm onto a decent thing so I will readjust that before sending it in.

What exactly do you mean by "the lowest"?

Say your on stage 1

Your drivability is 30, the stage is 80, 30/80 is 0.375
Your sportiness is 28, the stage is 80, 28/80 is 0.35
Your off-road is 60, the stage is 20, (60/20)^2 is 9

The lowest is the sportiness at 0.35 so that sets the speed for that stage.

Re: KOH accepting entries

Does reliability affect the damage taken?

Re: KOH accepting entries

It directly affects how much damage can be taken.

Re: KOH accepting entries

While we may not be able to design a proper flagship model for our own company, this kind of thing is right up our alley. After several hours of tuning and tweaking, ABR has come up with something that can only be described as the mad cousin of the Honeybadger. Sporting a power:weight ratio of 1:2,33 while still maintaining a decent reliability rate we have high hopes for our participation in this challenge

Will be updated soon... ish... perhaps... hopefully

Re: KOH accepting entries

Just to be clear, the max cost is for "Total Cost" in the overview tab, correct? I'm struggling to even reach 15k, so I hope I'm not looking at the wrong thing.

Re: KOH accepting entries

I found an exploit in my calculations concerning reduced damage for the comfort limiting the speed, It will be changed to take into consideration how much slower the comfort is making it vs how slow the cars abilities are making it.

Anywho, My entry.
