[strop]

Oh man, so much variety, so hard to figure out... So we should only vote for one?

[UMGaming]

you can only vote for 1

[Riso]

My engine is the best compromise of size, power, economy and weight and should therefore go to the next round.

[strop]

Oh, I disagree! For only 5kg saving, you lose a whopping 15 points of responsiveness and 53 points on the performance index, therefore my engine should go to the next round

[nialloftara]

My engine's broad powerband and high torque will allow far more flexibility in gearbox tuning, there's a reason mine has the highest performance rating.

[strop]

Well actually that is very true, niall's engine has a sweet torque curve true to the grunty cars the tourers are based on, but... with that much power and that much weight, I found it more difficult to balance the chassis to get the power on the road and have the car handle reasonably!

[Lordred]

yes, but the LHE better then 100hp/liter baby and inexpensive V6 will let you throw ALL the money at the car.

[UMGaming]

Hi guys, I was wondering if you would like me to add a "upgrade" system where the engine surplier and the teams both get two upgrades through out the season. Upgrade 1 and 2 will both equal to $5000 in game. You as a team and or engine surplier will be able to use these upgrade's any time in the season (after the race 1 tune deadline) therefore it will add another level of strategy to the compitition.
A simple yes or no is perfectly fine for an answer.

[strop]

Hmm... That'll be hell on your logistics and organisation and will delay proceedings. I vote nah.

[UMGaming]

True, I think ill scrap the upgrade idea unless someone convences me not too

[Riso]

Yeah, that upgrade thing seems like a lot of work.

[UMGaming]

Battle for 3rd Engine spot, winner takes all

If you have a problem with the game not extracting the engines, just place the lua files manually, I had to do this with some engines.


I am looking forward to the car submissions.

[nialloftara]

Okay so you have said not to tune our cars, so is this just a body shape and styling round? What specifically are we making here, I know strop had asked about engine fitment and costs factoring in as being possible issues.
