Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

The wait paid off and I actually won something! Woohoo! Thank you to Asdren, I’m glad to hear the Cefiro caught your eye!
Also good job to my fellow competitors, I hope you are all ready for the next round!

Now so far we’ve made relatively new…”tame” cars. While I did have my eye on something similar I figure I’d go back a little with some more room to work with. I know this may not satisfy the itch for everyone, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. I have the ruleset ready to go...

BEFORE THAT THOUGH. I’m not opted into the Open Beta. I’m not against opting in if the majority are in favor of doing so, but I’d like some input before moving forward. Do we make this competition now for those in the Open Beta or do we keep it at the latest stable version?

I don't mean to delay, but I think this is a required consideration since the update was released during the previous round and I know some people have already opted in and may not wish to opt out.

Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

I'm in the beta, so I would prefer that to be used, but I would be willing to make a car in the public release if that's what's ultimately preferred.

Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

^same vote here. i would get a car build in public release EVENTUALLY, but it's a hassle

FWD+inline 4+muscle car= bad combination?
i thought and at least tried to prove that wrong.
it just seems that either V6 or a V8 still is the king on a muscle car isn't it?

Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

This is a pertinent question. The rules of starting the new round are suspended until we have some kind of consensus!

Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

I'd prefer to stay in Beta (the new bodies are good and I'm reluctant to let those go). However, if it's decided to be public release, I'll have no problem with stepping back.

Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

Congrats to Sebesseg!
Maybe because I was thinking more cylinders are better, I ended up deciding to put a V engine with many cylinders in things that aren't really suitable in all of my entry to the competitions, but the Open Beta was a nail in the coffin to that policy. I'd happily accept Open beta, but I'm good with changing back to the public release.

Re: The Car Shopping Round (Round 7)

Really thought that I made the right car this time but damn you guys are really good. Congrats Sebsseb!
I would say open B but also have no problem going back.

Some would even argue that a V6 isn't right for a muscle car. RWD V8 is a "real" muscle car, V6 is only recent to have a cheap base model that's better on gas.

There's only one real way to make an FF i4 'muscle' competitor, and that is, build something like a Honda Integra :P

I haven't done any ranking, because ranking 17 entries on subjective criterias would have been quite difficult for me.
