BRC QuER - Hockenheim 1000 km 1976 [FIX]

[Packbat]

@Der Bayer: ...huh. That's a simpler formula than I was expecting.

Love how Erin Motorsports has adapted the teal colour to their racing machine, will be enteresting to see if it helps in regards to accidents.

It is always fun to try something new, so I went with a different idea.

18" tires and 265 width? Check

0-100 in 5,1

80-120 in 2,2

290km/h top speed

Track times of mid/high 2.24's with NA engine

Still somewhere between 0.4-1.0 sec to be found fiddling with settings at least.

Apologize for sad/boring look, not finalized yet

You must have a significant engine in that to get it to 290! XD

I wonder how much it weighs

[Zabhawkin]

DMA is working on one, but its still a pitstop per lap slower than what has been posted.

[GenJeFT]

If I didn't make a mistake, this is how the finishing chances are:



It shows full throttle time for engine reliabilities 5-50, so for the 1000 km race you probably need to look at 4,5-5 hours.

I dont think a lot of cars will make it.

[Packbat]

To be honest, I'm glad I don't have to aim for 80 reliability to have a good chance of making it, because I seriously thought that's what I would have to do.

Being based on the initial drawings for the ABR Honeybadger, or rather the bastard cousin the Rabid Honeybadger, it is based on the principle more is more!
Powered by a 6798cc NA V8 producing 548hp and 705nm it weighs in at 1563,8kg which should be enough to survive even the worst destruction derby.. Engine reliability of 42,9 should be plenty to finish I hope

Hating the bugginess i get when I try to fit wings, all my cars are without wings or lips, just so I don't start hating too much, but aero work is required to reach 290 yes

[squidhead]

You didn't get even a 100hp/liter out of it? Most of the budget went into things other than an engine, didn't it?

Perhaps

But getting the power down and lowering drag was where most of it went, along with +15 safety to get the much needed weight. And with 45% wheelspin, I figured enough hp, and went for reliability.

And compared to the 530hp 4L turbo I made, this engine is much more efficient at getting that power down and out at almost same price...

[squidhead]

45% wheelspin?! Wow! I am guessing you won't like the rain much?

[Sanguinity]

I would gear a bit more conservative, to be honest. 5.1 to 60 is nice and all, but 548hp and 45% wheelspin is too much.

[strop]

Just to be absolutely sure, as I'm in a bit of a hurry and can't read all 10 pages... no limitations on format or drivetrain choice?

And what was the verdict on aero again?

No limit on aero

[squidhead]

ANY aero. ANY drivetrain. ANY body if it is from 65 to 76.

Also if your name is NormanVauxhall you should stop trying to build reliable engines. It's futile anyways.
