Aeroline Luxury Designs [UPDATE 2/18/2015]

[SuperSportNick]

Impressive, but effortless in everything except the manufacture! Btw Lockheed Martin build the F35, not Boeing and given the current fiasco surrounding that, you do not want Lockheed as a contractor.

With that much power, id have expected a faster airfield time but I guess all 2000hp cannot be used all the time on a technical track

Well it was supposed to be a joke lol but forgot it was Lockheed. Consider it changed! The F35 hovers nicely though Am already looking into a more track focused version.

Holy crap lol, that's like a new level of Veyron. I have never seen anything that Automation calculates total costs exceeding 300k, but that's also because most ultra high performance vehicles don't have super ridiculous levels of luxury trim in the cabin And the styling, wow! While the squarishness of the rear tail light isn't exactly to my taste, I can certainly appreciate what you were doing and it looks amazing.

I don't think such a car as that is ever well suited to tackling Airfield, nor should it be considered an awfully relevant performance measure. I'd be more interested to know if it gets around 7:30 around Nordschleife. Also those front wheels are giant, though I imagine given it's AWD and how heavy the car is, it's probably necessary.

Your critique of the taillights is noted! The front of the car is very rounded and flowing and then the back of the car is quite straight and square (lazy?). lmao. I did run it at Green Hell and it came back with a uh... sevenfortysometigjhs.....

Introducing the 2015 Aeroline Mongoose 4.5 and Mongoose 4.5R...


The standard Mongoose 4.5 is a luxury sports car, aimed to invade the $50,000-$75,000 sports car market, namely the Jaguar XK and C7 Corvette, as well as the Fleetwood, GT-Hyperion, and Calavante. The Mongoose 4.5 offers a more civil driving experience than the R model, with a slightly softer suspension and a better crafted luxury interior.



The Mongoose 4.5 features the same engine as seen in the 2015 Aeroline Storm. It's an all aluminum, flat-plane 32v 4.5 liter V8 producing 367hp @ 7500RPM. This engine was chosen for its versatility, reliability, and smoothness. Linked to a 7-gear automatic transmission and a rear-wheel drivetrain, this car can produce satisfying bursts of acceleration while also maintaining a 30MPG rating.

Engine stats:




The engine is wrapped in an AHS steel monocoque frame, chosen for the correct amount of stiffness for a smooth and luxurious ride, while also suited to perform during dynamic driving. This is also cost effective for production, and therefore makes for a less expensive product and minimal production time.



The body panels are manufactured with only the finest lightweight polymer materials. This also cuts down on manufacturing cost and time. Specifically chosen aero and cooling fixture help push the Mongoose 4.5 ahead of its competitors in styling and performance. Engineers at Aeroline wanted to ensure that the weight budget for this project included a luxury interior with luxury entertainment options. The Mongoose 4.5 also comes with all driving options and budget-detailed safety standards.







($60,000 as shown)


It was important to make sure that the Mongoose 4.5 be as user friendly as possible. With that in mind, performance had to be scaled back quite a bit for both stability and MPG rating, but it still produces an exhilarating rush when tested. The 367hp V8 pushes the car to 62mph in only 5.0 seconds, and clears the 1/4 in 13.2 seconds. It also has an electronically limited top speed of 160mph. Despite cut back to performance, enthusiasts who might want to visit the track can still expect decent performance. Our testers recorded lap times of 1'25 @ Airfield w/ factory sport compound tires.

------------------------------------------------------------------


The Mongoose is aptly named for its quickness and agility, and the Mongoose 4.5R is the perfect embodiment of that principle; offering super car performance on a premium sport car platform. Aeroline has dabbled with AWD and sequential gearboxes, but felt it overcomplicates and over-engineers for a pretty basic premise... big engine, light car... The Mongoose 4.5R is a track focused street legal sports car looking to dominate the Corvette ZR1, Nissan GTR, and all comers.



The Mongoose 4.5R uses the same all-aluminum, 32v 4.5 liter V8 from the Aeroline Storm, but this time Aeroline's engineers attached twin-turbochargers to produce a staggering 660hp @ 7700RPM. Linked to a true 6-speed manual transmission, the power is routed to the rear wheels and through the widest rear tires in Aeroline's production history. Comfort and economy are thrown aside, squashed for every bit of performance that can be gained!

Engine stats:




The engine sits in the bay of an all AHS steel monocoque frame, chosen for its cost effectiveness in manufacturing and rigidity for dynamic driving. The car also uses double-wishbone suspension front and back.



The frame is wrapped in lightweight polymer material. Cooling and aero fixtures were carefully chosen and placed by our engineers to maximize effectiveness and performance. Aeroline designers were forced to design a more focused and functional car this time. Although this is a more focused car than the standard Mongoose 4.5, it still has a premium interior with standard entertainment options and budget-detailed safety standards.






($89,995 as shown)


Its important to Aeroline that the Mongoose 4.5R is regarded as a truly undeniable force in the market, and therefore much time was spent tuning its suspension, aerodynamics, and gearing. As stated, the Mongoose 4.5R was originally fitted with a bunch of needless technology and eventually Aeroline engineers stripped it down to a basic rear-wheel drive sports car with a proper 6-speed manual transmission. The Mongoose 4.5R is a true driver's car and offers an experience that's exhilarating for the casual driver, and rewarding for the track enthusiast. 660hp propels the car into a 62mph sprint in 3.7 seconds, and clears the 1/4 in 10.98 seconds. It has an improved top speed over the concept, 202mph. Our testers have recently ran the car at Airfield and Nurburgring...


Our testers captured a 1'18 lap time at Airfield, topping many premium sports cars like the Nissan GTR, Lexus LFA, SRT Viper, and Corvette ZR1. This proves that its powerful on a tight, dynamic circuit. Our engineers actually tuned it here, so it runs with cars well above its price range including beating the fabled Bugatti Veyron.



It was also important to our engineers that it returned a decent Nurburging time, so its tuning was balanced between these two tracks with a heavier emphasis on Airfield as our engineers felt it was more similar to your local circuits. However, the Green Hell is another one of those obligatory right of passage things for all sports cars. The Mongoose 4.5R returned a time of 7'36, once again beating many sports cars and super cars. Our testers feel that it could run quicker times, but will leave that up to its buyers.

Introducing the 2015 Aeroline Serval 2.0R... [UPDATED 1/20/2015]


The Serval 2.0R is a lightweight, compact performance machine liken to an Ariel Atom or Bac Mono. With cat like agility and quickness, the Serval 2.0R is designed to attack chasing only the fastest lap times at your local circuit. It is the most performance focused machine in Aeroline's current lineup, designed from the ground up to be as explosive, as quick, and as agile as possible. The Serval 2.0R is a celebration of engineering mastery only brought to the industry by Aeroline.

**Engineers at Aeroline have updated the Serval 2.0R, modifying several aspects to push its limits even further.**




Engineers updated the Serval's engine so that it can fit transverse with a double wishbone rear suspension. The new engine is a hand built 2.0 liter, turbocharged DOHC 4 cylinder engine. It produces more power at 520hp @ 8,300RPM. It features a specialized magnesium block and alusil heads. It is much more reliable and responsive than the last version.

Engine stats:




The all new engine sits transverse over the rear wheels; connected to a 6 speed sequential transmission, power is routed through the rear wheels. The engine is wrapped in a lightweight carbon fiber monocoque frame finished with carbon fiber body panels.



The Serval 2.0R features classic Aeroline fixtures. The Serval is styled for function, with the cooling fixtures specifically placed for maximum effectiveness. This is a pure bred track car, so it features a budget detailed lightweight interior with NO entertainment options to save weight and distractions. Safety is also budget detailed and it comes with only power steering, ABS, and TCS driving options standard. The Serval 2.0R returns with a curb weight of only 1,711lbs.










The Serval 2.0R is not a user friendly car, it isn't made for the mass public. It's made specifically for closed circuits and for performance. Aeroline doesn't recommend driving it on the street, but as with all Aeroline products it is completely streetable. Our testers recently got a hold of it and want to share their results...



Updated suspension, a lighter engine, and R-compound tires result in an improved circle test. The Serval has an edge to it, but isn't completely untamed. Aeroline engineers recognize that a car like this is meant for experienced drivers only, and therefore the Serval passes the circle test slightly squirrelly compared to other R models within the brand.



Acceleration is a key point in the Serval's success. With a 0.30 P/W ratio (better than the Suzuki Hayabusa), it's a solid 9 second car with a staggering 1.2g-1.3g pull through 4th gear.



Testers record a 1'13.7 at Airfield, topping all entries on Top Gear's power lap list. Engineers say that this can be increased with more downforce, but will leave that up to the owner.



A 7'21 lap at GH is an indirect result of tuning at Airfield.

wow the Mongoose 4.5R is a beaut man, very good job, when I seen the Mongoose 4.5 I felt the front end lacked something. Then when I noticed that it was more of a base model and seen the 4.5R it all made sense. both cars are very well designed keep up the good work!

Thanks cannot wait for the full release on the Arrow. Beast looking car...

[SuperSportNick]

Thought this should constitute its own release, because it's dramatically different from the original car and the concept that it was based on. The Aeroline Force 6.6 is a masterpiece hyper car, the parameters of which were to achieve a true 300mph top speed, have a 2,000hp engine, have a sub-9 second 1/4 mile, be completely streetable and practical for street use, be reliable, and also be ultra luxurious. What resulted was a luxurious gran touring car which doubled the horsepower of the standard Bugatti Veyron 16.4 and as luxurious as any Bentley or Rolls Royce. The total cost of producing one runs $315,000.

Needless to say, the Force 6.6 is still available as quickly as our workshop can produce them and it still remains the centerpiece of the company. While the Force 6.6 is a capable vehicle, close circuit racing isn't quite its speed. The Force 6.6 produced a 7'20 Nurburgring time and a 1'16 Airfield lap. Though these times are quick, it seemingly leaves much to be desired. Outraged the CEO demanded more performance! He wants the Force to conquer Nurburgring AND Airfield together at once, at all costs. Aeroline Luxury Designs then developed an R model for the Force.

Introducing the 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6R "Furtherance", by Aeroline Luxury Designs... UPDATED 1/09/2015



The R Model required a complete re-worked 6.6 flatplane V8. Engineers realized that its impossible to tame 2,000hp. Typically cars with 2,000hp go in a straight line and that's it. They figure what the Force 6.6 does in stock trim is quite impressive, but if they were going to improve its lap times it would need a lighter engine which produced a lot less horsepower.

Re-engineering the engine to an alusil engine block, it now weighs about 40lbs less. It still produced 1,602hp but achieves peak power much earlier, making for a much more responsive engine. The engine is still reliable, still uses 90.3 pump gas, and is STILL completely street legal. It's also linked to an 8-speed sequential transmission which routes power through Aeroline's advanced AWD system. The engine has also been repositioned, and power is now routed through the rear-wheels instead of being AWD.

Engine stats:




Many weight cuts were made. Qualities went down. Interiors were downgraded. Engineers that work for Aeroline Luxury Designs department were disgusted by its simplicity and functionality. They had to add a double deck wing, along with other down force aero fixtures and additional cooling vents. The suspension was softened slightly, the cambers were aligned a little bit straighter, the front tires are a bit slimmer. All of these things for the sake of performance...










Despite all that was given away, the Furtherance model comes to the party with equal acceleration to the original. In fact, testers say it pulls even harder and maintains a 1.3-1.4G pull through 5th gear. The Furtherance edition comes with a 8.4 sec 1/4 mile, 14.9 sec KM, and a still respectable top speed of 225mph. The car can also produce a 1.8 lateral GeForce turn, and stops the world in 86 feet from 62mph. Testers wanted to share some of its performance here.


Bump test:



Circle test:

A picture perfect circle test. Just sporty enough to go squirrelly but also tame enough to bring it back. The 6.6R can also perform a 1.81g 820, and a 1.47g 65. This makes for an undeniably pen-point accurate performance machine.


Skid pad:

As stated, the Force 6.6R still has all the acceleration and MORE than the original model. Not only does it hit 60mph in 2.12 seconds, it clears the 1/4 in 8.4 seconds and full KM 6.4 seconds later; F1 car acceleration. Again, this is with completely street legal parts.


Finally, what do all of these modifications equate to? What are the final numbers of the 2016 Force 6.6R "Furtherance"?



This is the fastest lap time around Airfield, on a completely streetable car. It certainly beats all on Top Gear's power lap times, with the closest competitor being the Pagani Huayra at 1'13.8. UPDATED 1/09/2015



Our exhausted engineers and testers worked tirelessly to achieve the goal time of 6'59 around Green Hell. With the repositioned engine, the refined 6.6R engine, and the change to RWD it managed to achieve this goal. UPDATED 1/09/2015


Despite its weight cut, the performance modifications, it still remains a rather comfortable car with a budget-detailed standard interior and basic entertainment features. It also has budget-detailed safety features and it lost launch control, but still offers electronic stability, TCS, ABS, and power steering.

The price tag for a 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6R "Furtherance" is $7,000,000. If you think that's expensive, imagine how much more expensive this rare bird will be at auction 100 years from now! Which makes the investment worthwhile...

What are you doing with your suspension? Somehow the obstacle (2cm high) is being magnified especially in the Serval. The front moves 3cm which means it would be more comfortable with the suspension removed

The Serval just has a super stiff suspension coupled with huge rims (relative to the car body), low pro tires. Its a ridiculous car. But I've already got a better version ready to go with some practical dampening. Just needs an update.

[VosNox]

For some reason, I'm absolutely in love with the Spry!

[SuperSportNick]

Currently re-tuning the dampers on all my cars... this is a lot of work.

For some reason, I'm absolutely in love with the Spry!

Thanks, its a simple little car with a simple premise. The Serval 2.0R uses the same 2.0 4 cylinder engine, and it now produces 525hp. Tempted to throw it into the Spry for shits and giggles lol but trying to maintain some kind of standards

[SuperSportNick]

Teaser for a new compact sedan using the smaller mid-90's sedan model. It uses classic Aeroline marques in the fixtures, but is also brooding in its design. Going to use it for my first shot at a rally car like a Lancer Evolution or Subaru Impreza. It will come with either automatic, manual, or sequential transmissions and be FWD or AWD.

Right now its using the Spry "Sport Club Package" 267hp turbocharged 2.0 4 cylinder as a standard engine. I'd like to see a premium model and a true rally edition using a V8 but problem is the suspension setup doesn't allow for my current line of V8s which are all pretty small... might have to design a new one off motor. I already have it with full rally trim and aero kit and its using the Serval's 520hp 4 cylinder engine which is ungodly expensive. Wish this game had V6s because I-6s don't appeal to me at all.

[strop]

oh god damn that looks sick, as usual.

You could develop a super small V8, I'm fond of putting 2.0L V8s into these kinds of cars and then boosting the $^%&! out of them. Small motors rev like the bejeezus too, it would sound insane. That said, you may be better off with the i4, in terms of cost effectiveness.

[utopian201]

reminds me of the new Mustang

Thanks strop. Never really made a 2.0L V8 lmao but I'm give it a shot and see how it goes. New to whole rally thing, so to me it seems out of place to have such a small V8 but I've seen it before. The old Taurus SHO's had like 3.0L transverse V8s lol so its been done before on a mass scale. Might have to revert to McPherson struts for extra space, but I'd really, really like to see a V8 in there.

reminds me of the new Mustang

It's a weird car... from the front it looks like a Mustang, but at an angle it looks more like an R33 Skyline while the rest of the car looks like a mix between Lancer and BMW M3. It really looks like a Lancer EVO with the aero kit on. I feel its a pretty balanced car. Will post it soon in all of its versions!

[strop]

I fiddled for a few minutes and have a square block that fits in most frames that support AWD, even with double wishbones. 300hp, 95 production units, 3200 material costs and 70 reliability. It's by no means optimised but I can shoot it over if you like, see what you think.
