BRC QuER - Hockenheim 1000 km 1976 [FIX]

[robt100]

What about actual drivability of the car? You get wheelspin every single time you sneeze at the throttle pedal and I'm pretty sure you'll be getting a lot of driver errors. And if the rain starts you won't be able to use any power at all.

Stats are:
Drivability: 20
sportiness: 42,2
Engine reliability: 25,2
Approx fuel consumption: 240kg/h
Fuel tank size: 86kg

Pitstop every 8 laps, and fresh tires to boot, but probably not worth it, with long refueling times as well. Interesting to se the comparison though

Drivability: 19
sportiness: 46
Engine reliability: 35.6
Approx fuel consumption: 147kg/h
Fuel tank size: 100kg


seems I will get further per tank......but then spin most laps anyway

You have to look at the trim to find the actual numbers used: track tameness (drive) and track sportiness.

Well, it took some cajoling, but PAW's engineers have relented and got to work designing two cars for testing.

PAW HHR Special cropped.png (242 KiB) Viewed 14111 times

The HHR Special is a high-speed, high-fuel-consumption prototype pushing 437 hp out of a turbocharged 2.8L V6. Initial estimates are 24-30 minutes between pit stops.

PAW Ectophylla cropped.png (237.97 KiB) Viewed 14111 times

By contrast, the Ectophylla is a grippy, lightweight exotic with 374 hp from a turbocharged 2.0L flatplane V8. Expectations are 27-35 minutes between pit stops.

Both cars are ... *ahem* "exciting" to drive - TrDr/TrSp of 21.3/35.7 and 21.9/33.7, respectively - so PAW plans to change drivers frequently to minimize the effects of fatigue. With engine reliabilities in excess of 40 for both cars, however, we do not anticipate any failures during the race.

So, if I have done my maths correct, I can last 40 minutes on a single tank of fuel, while doing low 2:22s'. I'm pretty happy with this.

Thanks for the guide, Packbat

[Riso]

I've shown this in the BRC66 thread already but this time I am sending it: The Mantis.

Granted, the front picture is not the updated '75 with 265 wheels and aero bits but it's nearly the same.




Available in 492 hp, 4988cc V8 NA and 535 hp, 3996cc V8 Turbo versions.
Double Wishbones front and rear, full aluminium body, steel monocoque, mid-rear longitudinal setup.

hmm, i actually haven't tried MR bodies. are the aerodynamics really that much better on those?

and im still stuck on low 2:23s. at least it's progress from 2:25, but not enough progress

...well, I guess I can write off any hopes of being competitive this season.

(Glad to be of service!)

[squidhead]

I assumed most people got similar consumption, save a few people in 16 liter jeepers things. :\

[Packbat]

Well, sure, but I've got a shorter range and I'm in the high 23s, low 24s.

...what's your engine reliability like? Maybe that's why I'm getting hammered.

Presenting:

Smooth Nobeauty 76
Flatplane 4.3 V8, 453HP, refuel approx. every 37min, Trt/Trs 35/39, engine reliab. 39
...

Smooth Laggator 76
Turbo 4.9 fp V8, 844HP, refuel approx. every 9min, Tst/Trs 11/37, reliab. 39
quite spicy yes... in 4 laps it needs to gain 20+ seconds for a pitstop.
I really wanted to make it extreme...for research purposes

Drat , my cars are finished, but i think i'm running in the open beta. What can i do about it?

[UMGaming]

Could I get my first car changed to number 24 and my 2nd car changed to 25 or do you want me to send another revision?

[Der Bayer]

Done.

Drat , my cars are finished, but i think i'm running in the open beta. What can i do about it?

I don't know. Try exporting them and importing them in the public version. I cannot guarantee that this will work though.

[Matti]

What are the rules of this? Did I miss something? And can I run 2 identical cars?

I am now in 2.23.xx with sub 4-litre NA injected mid engine.


P.S. Can I get the Nr. 96 as I have in BRC66 ?
