The FATI 126p Minicar. 1.9m wheelbase of glory! :)

I'll be much happier if there's somebody who's going to send in a Pyrlixbus with it's 4.6m wheelbase rather than having a gajillion 126. :lol:

Ì just realised I could do something with one of the lesser used mod platforms of this game... in its original glory too, huehuehue

Everything that you should know about the rules is the cream big letters and the part about naming the submission files. :)

Catalytic converters? pfffffffffffff!

I think the rules as is covered pretty much everything now. You can make ANY thing, use ANY fuel, and run with catalytic converters if you feel the need to spend more on something that reduce power and add weight! ;)

Re: Automation Lemons Time Attack Challenge!

For this challenge, I decided I would make an iconic car, except I would then cheap out on just about everything except the engine. What results is a car that, if it holds together, will go like the clappers (in a straight line, anyway).

Behold, the car that Felgen's Giugiaro wedge body was intended for... a car actually designed by Giugiaro, the Lotus Esprit!

(This one is the S3. Except then I took its i4 "pfffft turbo" engine and went TUBRO MOTHERFUCKER on it. 300hp? So weak!)

Something tells me I will be entering my not so successful PR78B, the one that was entered into the pocket rockets challenge. With a few tweaks.

Re: Automation Lemons Time Attack Challenge!

Well here is my not so imaginative entry, I guess I have issues making cars of my own huh? :P

Introducing the 1977 Desert Motors "Abraham Metropolis Car". The brakes suck, the engine is over emissionized and it weighs more than some homes, sounds perfect for Lemons!

Re: Automation Lemons Time Attack Challenge!

So, if I make a car from say... 1960, how much cash do I get?

Re: Automation Lemons Time Attack Challenge!

$9,725

Edit: 1960-1945=15 then 15*85=1,275 then 11,000-1,275=$9,725
