Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Taking Entries!}

thanks don. My collaborator was instrumental in refining the front from the original concept (seen in the Action Hero Movie 2 car). The rear still needs some work. You might be able to tell the car it's based off (from the appearance and the name), and I'll go ahead and reveal that we're aiming to destroy that specific car using similar tech and on the same budget, ho ho ho.

(Yes, somewhat kind of a bit different to what I imagine we're supposed to be comparing to, but still in the same... ballpark).

I have submitted my Utopia R but tuned to meet this particular market's emissions standards (as a manufacturer would do!). Let our glorious feud continue!

Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Taking Entries!}

Right. We have submitted. With what we're guessing will be the most sport-oriented car in the lineup, we present the GK-R, codenamed Godzilla Killa!

No prizes for guessing which real life company we'd pitch the car to, as well as the real-life car we're taking aim at with this model. Definitely something to update when active aero and suspension comes out!

note: uses a lot of mods. Namely: grille and vents from Necronn, integrated exhaust grille and vents from Pleb, a lip from Weasel, the chrome strips from Pyrlix, and who made those awesome box vents I like using for hood scoops???

Actually the styling reminds me of 3 cars...The Jaguar r type, the DB9 and a little bit of Ford Mondeo. :D

Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Taking Entries!}

Due that I've no answer from titleguy1 I wish to ask about the rule 3; 20 MPG (US) minimum (11.76 l/100).

Really does the car need a fuel economy over 11.76 l/100?!?! (a bit silly question but...)

Over 20mpg or under 11.76L/100km means the same thing.

Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Taking Entries!}

Your OP hasn't yet updated and I haven't received a reply on my PM, so I have no idea whether my entry has been accepted (in fact, there's quite a few more since vmo's, there's leo and onyx and razyx and probably a few more that I missed too.

Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Judging}

I blew all my budget on a carbon fibre body, in an attempt to make it more economical and faster. But I believe that going sensible with just 700 hp on my car might have cost it the first place.

Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Judging}

"Just" 700 he says :lol:

I had no idea how much power I really wanted but I can tell you I settled for less than that, in the hopes of making something with better driving dynamics! (Turbos are hard, man D: )

Re: -Ultimate Super Saloon- {Judging}

Wait, entries are closed? Of course it happens just when I'm finished with my car :(
It would've been nice if you had written out exactly at which time the competition ended, though; I assumed it'd end in one and a half hour since that's when midnight is in NYC.
