The year is 2012,

Just a few rules

Spoilers on the back half only
Safety >40
Loudness <50
Emissions < 200
No semislicks

The basic scoring is simple
Gasmea - Hyper - Competativeness

I believe that when all of the cars are in your score and mine will differ because I will have so many competitors in my list

Cosmetic score
After the deadline I will post pictures of all of the cars and their entry number (order in which they were submitted) You plus anyone else will then vote on your top 3 choices, favorite first.

First place will get 5 points added to their score, 3 for second and 1 for third.

Deadline Midnight US mountain GMT-6 I think? Wednesday Morning December 1st.

One week will be given from the time I post the pictures to the close of voting.

PM me your submissions

First block your name Second block the cars name, company Third block your name again, fourth block the engine name (optional).

Now I realise that the year is 2012, not 2015. If I went lore-friendly, GG wouldn't have a viable car for this segment (or they would but it would be non-competitive).

So should I just aim to max out the score instead...

That is entirely up to you.

Hmm it seems that I just made my Buffalo trackpac in that time period, might have to do some tuning...
Or I could build a earlier banshee or warpwind... So many options for sub $50k hyper cars...

Is there any cost/prod unit limit?

I have made a great, but terrible choice going with a Rear Engine V6. I hope. Also, having a higher top speed lowers desireablity in hyper. I don't understand that at all.

Depends on drivability and sportiness. More top speed may mean more prestige, but if it comes at the cost of drivability and sportiness, those things may outweigh it.

And using a rear-engined car does make it very difficult. You'll have to use very funky setups to make the car drivable for a start.


Echoo0o: I don't think that would be useful, because there's already a soft limit in that desirability is offset by budget in market simulations.

I've abandoned the idea of a rear-engine car (Mainly due to the model f*cking up) so F4/FR it is!

Edit: Just built my car. Makes 500g of front downforce. 500 Grams. That's jack shit.

Mah car's production cost is around 60000 and I have a healthy three digit competitiveness :D

No limits on cost or production units, but the game does take those into account on the competitiveness score.

Okay, I think I've got a decent enough 'competitiveness' number (though it required me making a couple of design choices I decidedly did not like). I love how customers who buy hypercars have absolutely no conception of fuel economy. 35L/100km? That's ok, it has over 1300hp!

Somehow I expected that from you.

Well I guess this would be an apt place to continue the power wars. I see your 1300HP, Strop. I will attempt to raise. Don't ask me to make it corner better though. I'm terrible at suspension tuning.
