Group B Rally

Err yeah. Something like that Can you imagine the size of the flames this thing's gonna spit out?

I'll get the marshmallows and the roasting sticks. Time for some GG sponsored smores.

Well, I wouldn't normally have a problem with a 11100 redline (in fact I love it), if not for the fact at 11100rpm the engine would probably be developing about 200hp... dial it back to 10200rpm, however, and the curve was much healthier!

ALSO: DEM LEAD SMOKED SMORES. YUM YUM!

I have added another 4 days onto the deadline, and please may you submit any mods used.

The boys from the CPV shed have been so kind as to send Gryphon Gear a 1000hp engine. This delights Strop, who hadn't been planning on entering due to time and manufacturing constraints, but always liked the idea of a Group B rally spec tournament.

So now, much to the horror of his colleagues, especially his designated co-driver, GG's usual test driver, Kai, he is now tossing up between two options:

1) Digging up the old blueprints to an aborted project called 'Widowmaker', which originally shoehorned a 2500hp engine into a rebuilt replica of the 1975 Ford Falcon XB, which would look hilariously ridiculous on a Group B rally stage.
2) Cramming the engine into the shell of a VW Golf Mk2, which would be several hundred kg lighter, and therefore drive hilariously ridiculously.

As long as this stuff doesn't concern Class 2, I'm fine

my thoughts exactly!

[Astraman]

Euhm, you think?? I'm running a class 2 car too

[strop]

Guys let's not get too worried here, the best way to think about this is, we managed to get a 1000hp group b car to run. There's absolutely nothing to suggest that this car will run well

Except for, you know, history....

Ahem, what was that?

[strop]

Except, you know, I haven't actually won an event in like months, so clearly my reputation is overhyped

But seriously, the powerband is all kinds of crazy, just because I'm used to dealing with cars like that doesn't mean it's going to perform as well as, say, an actually kind of well balanced car

[Manche]

whe do we have to submit our monstrosities?

[nialloftara]

I will announce the tracks after the close of submissions on 22 December 6:00 PM UTC.

Enter your car by PM.

1,63 G @ 227km/h? in the real world it would outcorner a ferarri 458, and that's 1986's technology

Reading through these pages, after I entered a vehicle, I realized that I entered a somewhat too realistic vehicle (even if it is class 4). It's going to have a hard time keeping up with all those +15 sliders, and semi-slicks.

Expectation, last place.
