Riceburner Challenge - Read OP

[Manche]

regarding how much can each car cost...

[koolkei]

I say let people choose Ladder if they want.


That is all.

i highly doubt anyone would use it though

monocoque chassis started becoming viable for the average market since the 80s iirc?

[Microwave]

Yes guys, I get it
I'll update the OP when I've got time later.

[RoyalStig]

Why isn't the mid-engined variant allowed?

[Microwave]

Have you ever worked on a mid engine car? Total pain in the ass. Wouldn't be suitable for 16 year old riders.

[thecarlover]

By standard safety, you mean standard 80s, correct?

[Microwave]

Yes, I mean standard 80s.

Alright, so the budget for sport budget is wank, as Leo said.
How about this:
(The following numbers are the prices that the cars sell for with a 0% profit, if you're confused, I mean the price stated here:)

$17000 limit for base models.
$19000 limit for premium models.
$20000 limit for sport models.
It's only really possible to max out these numbers if you use mild quality sliders, I think they're pretty reasonable.
On the subject of quality sliders, I think we should impose a production units limit too. Any suggestions?

Also, rules have been updated in the OP regarding fuel systems and chassis and panels and such. Also added a rule stating that all models including the sport must have entertainment systems. Before telling me this is bad, bear in mind they're sport cars, not race cars.

[BlastersPewPew]

Ok, I think this is going to be good now!!! Only a couple little issues for me but nothing worth mentioning now, I can work around them

[Manche]

I can make a car that scores high on the converstible sport budget with 75% of the max limit, and that car has a tiny 2494 cc v8

[Microwave]

Don't pay attention to the markets, they're too broken to use to be honest.
Also, Blasterspewpew, feel free to tell me any issues.

[BlastersPewPew]

The only thing that bugs me a little is the tire limitations, base should be allowed to use the hard long life since well.....its cheap! Other than that I think this will be fun

[Microwave]

Hm... I'll add that.

Tomorrow I'll add the specific areas in which your cars are going to be judged, and I'll show you the points system. After that, I'll open the entries.

[BlastersPewPew]

Great, cant wait

[DoctorNarfy]

i don't really get why the mid engine Miata is banned. The Mr2 was Mid engine, the Pontiac Fiero was mid engine, I think it would make for some interesting competition, don't you think?

[Microwave]

Yes, they would make for good competition but as I said, they're a pain in the ass to work on and don't make sense from an RP perspective.
Ricers prefer Miatas and S2000s over MR2s for a reason.
