Perfect Race car Challange [Not Taking Entries!]

[Jakgoe]

How are we judged? Like, what are the criteria?

It is a race, look in the OP.

[strop]

Couple more questions:

Any limitation to quality on the safety?
Minimum reliability of engine and or overall?

[Speedemon]

In the OP it says that the saftey has to be set at Advanced 10s. And not any reliability factors involved. Some racing engines could explode at any moment!

[strop]

May I request that reliability be at least above zero? Because you can cheat by making overpowered engines that break or, more importantly, have zero ventilation, which would actually be (IMO), cheating.

[Speedemon]

Well the engine cannot break. That is one thing that would be important to put into the rules. So yes, the reliability of the engine will be above zero. Glad that you asked that!

So many air scoops! Radical!

[Speedemon]

Nice!

[strop]

So it should be no surprises as to which car I'm intending to enter into this competition.

What may strike some as strange is that it will have markedly less power than the original car...

[Cheeseman]

Who are you and what have you done with strop?

......

Seriously, are you OK?

[strop]

Strop is perfectly fine. He is right here, typing this post, at the computerbox. He has not been abducted by aliens at all, the very notion is ridiculous!

Seriously man, when you have ABS, TC and ESC, the car lets you get away with a bit more, but since we can only use power steering, it really does mandate some judicious management of the torque curve... if I want a car that does Nordschleife in under 7 minutes that is! ...and that's not even an appropriate track to be testing these cars on anyway, given Brands Hatch and the AT Test track are in the lineup! Oh god my car's bleeding horsepower

Here's my entry, a new luxury coupe turned into a hardocore racer.
I present to you...
The Rennen Kasai GTV8.




With an advanced 4WD system found in the Kusanagi R, and a crazy 4.5L Twin-Turbo Flatplane V8, this is one car you want to set your sights out for!

That's a really damned attractive design.

[VosNox]

Gentlemen, please. Take a seat.

[strop]

Why am I so tempted to scrap my original race car idea in favour of kubby's huge 70s sedan 4 Teh lulz? You'll be horrified to learn how fast I've made it (and that wasn't even with stripped interior).
