Best in class' the key advertising words of all marketing heads, it doesn't matter what the others can do, all that matters is that your car excels over the others in the field(s) you deem important.

The goal here is to create a well rounded vehicle, but the prize is to receive the 'Best in Class' award.

All entries who receive a 'Best in Class' will be reviewed. Any vehicle which does not earn a best in class will only get a snippet.

Medium Compound tires only.
No Negative quality in safety.
Total Cost: 15,000 +/- 2,500
/DA RULES:

MODS: I am running the Steam version, so only use workshop mods. (No VMO mods)

The Class in this case, is the 30,000$ car class, every car submitted will be priced at TC*2 for the sake of this competition.

Is there some kind of balancing mechanic at play here, in terms of offsetting the values per class with the cost, or otherwise? I forsee amazingly skewed marketing ploys as entries, no prizes for guessing how I'd build mine

[Tycondero]

Yes, I would also like some more details. Maybe you should also specify the year = 2005 in the rules?

That is the entire point of this competition marketing ploys.

But I will add a 10 position to the list: The Jack of all trades (Above Mean in the most categories)

That should be self evident.

FYI the next patch (at least the beta version) MIGHT (BIG KEYWORD THERE!!) hit before your challenge runs its course, may want to state something to the fact that only entries from the current pre-patch version are permitted etc.

[Lordred]

I was afraid that might happen, and it has prevented me from hosting a competition thus far, but I decided to just try anyways.

[Leonardo9613]

The next beta patch will take at least two weeks to go into open beta phase, so Lordred will have plenty of time until the release is pushed to everyone.

what do you send in now?

i'm kinda confused with the new system

[BlastersPewPew]

Anything, just make a car that costs between $17,500 and 12,500. That is it, you can focus on a particular area or go for the best you can do on all areas

[xABSOLUTIONx]

let me rephrase that - what files do you send in?

[BlastersPewPew]

Just click the "EXPORT" button and send the folder the game creates.

EDIT: Which should look very similar to this "C:\Users\*yourusername*\Documents\My Games\Automation\Export"

thanks a lot!

and wow is it easy now..

No Negative quality on safety is a big punch in the gut, but I'm working on something that I expect should need high safety anyways.

Personally I like my airbags without shrapnel inside
