so does this mean that what we post will be changed when you do the weighting? because if so i think i'd wait until the open beta to launch before making a vehicle

ah kk, making mine now, just need to increase the weight an extra 100 pounds and it should be good to go
EDIT: nvm, that last 100 pounds was impossible to gain, complete redesign required

I'm gonna say here, My RallyeWagon was/is inspired by the Volvo BTCC car from the '90s. I do enjoy channeling the stupid and illogical.

Re: Homologation 1988 Group Automation [Open 7/?]

Those would be the three top market positions for the vehicle.


You may notice that so far everyone has one of their top 3 in FSP (Family Sport Premium). This is me taking internal notes as my next competition I plan to make heavy use of the Markets tab, and less reliance on calculations.

I also will build more benchmark cars in the future, to help saturate the market segment. For now they are just notes.

Just got the base (no sliders) built, its 1hp short, $8000 and meets the rest of the requirements... time to throw money at it.

Re: Homologation 1988 Group Automation [Open 8/?]

Is max power limited by weight too? As in, can a 1170kg car have 229hp, or it needs to be heavier? Also, do i really have to bring the total cost to 12000?

Re: Homologation 1988 Group Automation [Open 8/?]

Answer to first is pretty much no, I submitted a 1170kg, 229hp car.

It was a lot of work getting it to 12000 though!

Remember we only have 8 entrys so far, and if you want to enter, you need to do so before you play with V12s.
