International Racing Championship ( October season )

[Microwave]

So, to be clear, there are 5 points allowed for platform, 5 points for engine, and 5 points for trim. Additionally, the engine must produce between 295 and 300 kW. So not 294.9 and not 300.1? My car is completed, but I just want to make sure I have complied with the rules. I've ruled out any competitive OHV, as I simply cannot get 4000cc OHV which can produce 295-300kW. (I didn't try turbo, because I absolutely suck with turbos) Best I could manage was 280kW (long, short, or medium stroke). The only way I managed to get past that point would reduce economy lower than 15% because of the 5 point limit. I'm actually really bummed about it, since I like to run OHV engines.

I used one of my mass produced V-8s, it's a 3.8L DOHC (I think), puts out about 390 horse stock, just slapped a race intake on it, 100 octane and bam, 402 horses.

The picture with the limitations isn't working, that must be the price to pay for leaving it to the last minute...

Has anyone saved it and can send it to me?

Camoria is using a 3.4 V8 SOHC of my own design, I actually had to detune the engine because in its original form it was putting out 330+ kW. Which is against the rules.

It's been hard for the car designs too. The headlights were always just slightly off...#realprobs

[Microwave]

Just realised I forgot to tune the gears and use the quality sliders... crap.

[07CobaltGirl]

I just realized the deadline was 7 September. I kept focusing on the first race being 9 September. Oh well.

[Lothoren]

So how did the first race go?

[Microwave]

Yeah, I'm eager to see the results

[Tiranth]

Yeah, I'm eager to see the results

No results yet. I´m really sorry. I had to work like crazy for the last few days, even sunday. 14-15 hours a day. We had to finish several exhibition stands in Hamburg and time was very limited.

BUT, today is my day off and i was able to check all the cars you sent in.

Short story: 7 of 8 failed to meet all requirements and restrictions. i give you 4 more days to redo and refine your cars and make them race-legal. So new entry deadline is 14th of September. Send the files in via pm and PLEASE name them correctly.

long story: I made a list of the flaws you should check. please make sure you are within the rules.


Odimur: engine displacement

jhd1124: rear suspension, rear brakes

Manche: chassis material, body material, engine material, loudness, top speed, rear brakes

harizvet1: chassis material, trim quality points

Lothoren: cooling capacity

Leonardo9613: engine reliability, top speed

oppositelock: chassis material


Chassis must be made of regular Steel !

I noticed that some of you put the quality sliders on the interior and safety on -15. Please leave the sliders at 0 if you don´t spend points on it.

Pm me if you have any questions.

Cheers

I wasn't sure about the reliability, what do you want to say with more than 33% reliability? You meant more than 33?

[Tiranth]

Exactly.

[Leonardo9613]

I just checked and my engine has 46.8 reliability and the top speed is lower than 302 km/h, at 281. There must be something wrong somewhere.

[Lothoren]

Yay revisions. Proved slightly tricker than expected lol.



For those who like to see their competitors, here is the rear guard aka Dalora Outcast

[Microwave]

God dammit D;

On the bright side I can fix my gearing!
I'm really surprised I was the only person to conform to all the rules.

It showed other stats to me ingame, but don´t worry.
I will inform you if there are any errors with your revised car.



Also you guys showed me that i have to rewrite the rules for the next season and lower the possibilities of breaching the rules.
I already took some notes on how to improve it. For example: pictures of the legal car bodies will be added

Are you okay with the information written in charts or do you prefer another layout?
Where do i have to be more precise?
Ideas are welcome.

Cheers
