I’m smack in the middle of that range with 1302 kg 
(a little higher than mid-pack, but mid-pack anyways)
i’m mid lower then. 1249.8kg. just cheating that 200 grams down. 260hp
because 1249.8kg * 0.208 = 259.95 forgiveable right? 
i spent a bit too much fine tuning the weight.

That why we have LSD’s 
Drivability is around 41 I think… And weight is on the limit as allways.
I’m not counting on anything major this round as it was a superfast build but damn top 5 is a must

I think my car will do a very poor championship. It’s a shame we can’t review the car during the season, like a large number of championships. But it’s motorsport baby!
I’m guessing i’m going to make mid-pack as usual.
264hp. Drivability 48ish?

Ok, HYYYYYPE!!!
I am so hoping for some good racing, but probably not from me.
Actually it’s the 2.4 liter Merna de-bored 
I felt like basing my build off your trim would be cheating on my part.
Also I completely missed the fact that I could build an engine from scratch 
, so I tuned the Erin unit. Wouldn’t make much sense lore wise anyways, unless I could slot in a de-turbo’ed unit from the Adelaide… better not think about it. Too late now
I think that a most of people would be running somewhere about 280-310 hp. It just makes sense to push the engines hard.
… because… it is nice… to get the family together from time to time?
I do not think you are now realizing that I am the heaviest on the grid Also I think I’ve found my direct competitor

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to create a decent ATCC car to enter, as I was building engines in the UE4 version of automation, but hopefully if there’s a second ATCC season I will probably compete in that!
Not sure how competitive mine is. We’ll just have to wait and see the how the first race pans out. Though I was pushing out 300 hp and had to detune the engine to meet restrictions. Won’t know what that means until we see some lap times. Actually running on 257 hp now.
Let’s just say the Erin marketing executives would like it named a certain way

I’m crushed not to have been able to make the deadline. This is exactly the kind of thing Armada would have signed up for. It’s actually kind of a lore travesty I couldn’t make it.
But there’ll surely be other opportunities so I’ll be ready next time! Here’s to some raciiiiiiiing

Oh… KHT has fired most of those ever since the Schwarzwald disaster in mid 2000s’. We are now using a random idea generator made out of a pool of manatees and huge cirus balls with words on them.

Hopefully my weight can make up a near 70hp deficit
I also thought about trying to counteract a lack of power with less weight, but now, I’m not so sure… Hence my decision to wait until next season to enter.
Huadai Sachiuri Motorsports
Huadai Sachiuri Motorsports joins the ATCC led by team manager Choi Ji-hun (최 지훈), a seasoned Anikatian racing driver, previously having driven for AAU team in the BRC 1976. Along with numerous domestic state-sponsored racing events, his experience in endurance racing and being the frontman of the Maesima team and natural fit here along with a welcome escape from the drudgery that awaits back in Democratic Socialist Republic of Anikatia (DSRA) brings him to the ATCC with the factory backed Sachiuri team. Partnered with a number of Anikatian companies, mainly Huadai Group, ASCO (Anikatian Stores and Markets Company), YM Media and ANBS WORLD, the small but professional team very much aims for serious competition.
The team comprises of Ji-hun as manager, the main driver Chekal Sung-ho (제갈 성호) and the reserve driver, Koong Jin-ho (궁 진호). Sung-ho is a short and seemingly unremarkable Anikatian, who is actually a real demon behind the wheel. He has a had plenty of racing endurance experience racing at 24 Hours of Daytona, 1000km Spa and Bathurst 1000 along with numerous domestic state-sponsored racing events. Jin-ho, meanwhile, is a loud and showy Anikatian who oddly is known to be very calm, quiet and calculating driver. He possesses great skills in setting up the car and works closely with the engineering and technical staff. This is despite his relatively limited racing experience, but his on-track performance speaks for itself. The pair also drove the Maesima Racing Development #8 Maesima NRZ-986GT-R to an 8th place finish in the 1985 24 hours of ATT. Choi himself drove for Maesima in the 1985 24 hours of ATT as well, but his race was ruined when teammate Dokko Sang-hun spun out the NRX-085GT-P prototype ending their race.
Along with the manager and two drivers, there are a crew of technicians and engineers who will work on aerodynamics components, suspension, telemetrics, drivetrain, engine and tyres - they will serve double duty as the mechanics as well.
We will be racing the specially race prepared Sachiuri sL200. The notable fact is that the Sachiuri is not running a stock or modified engine, but rather a purpose-built 1999cc naturally aspirated inline-four.
Huadai Sachiuri Motorsports wishes all competitors the best of luck!

@squidhead Surely using manatees and circus balls is more expensive than just hiring a few marketing execs?
@abg7 I will be releasing some analysis of the cars come the end of the season to work out which setups are best and which aren’t. That should be of some help to you.
Also! Race 1 results inbound

#Race Report
Our first race revealed that, overall, the range of performances in the field is huge, but that the mid-field is also very large, with only cars at the extremities increasing this range. Grammin Wondersly took a very convincing 1st place for Howler, with 2nd and 3rd places going to the JET-Racing team and Buddy Fetus for Smooth, who were over 15 seconds behind.
Zavir, ErinSport, Baltazar and KSR ran a very close race, jostling for position on a number of occasions and finishing very closely indeed, and it was a similar story with Riordan and Makinen of JHW and Infinity, who came 8th and 9th respectively. New comers IDSport and Cornaldie gave an impressive performance against more established rivals and finished well, defending their positions from MSR’s Sobong Yeong-ho for most of the race.
Past the half-way point, the field remains close, with GTL’s Yasmin Rodrigues struggling to keep up with the Maesima but avoiding the drama between Merciel and KH, the former of whom caught up to Phillips and sat on his tail for the last 5 laps, making for a tense ending to their races. Bogliq and ZMD and Sachiuri remained close for much of the race, finishing at the rear of the midfield.
Behind them, cars were far more spaced out, with Colciago in the STF being stalked by Giordano in the Kimura for most of the race. Sabre had a quiet race while behind them, there was a whole load of action between the bulky, chiseled Contendiente Gladiator of Heckler Kraut and the smooth, rounded Solo Beaver of Aaron “Viper” Montanya. Both were neck and neck between laps 12 and 22, but some clever moves by Kraut outwitted Montanya and secured him 23rd. EcaMobile’s Basim Nakeed brought up the rear, finishing last overall.
The championship standings after Race 1 are as follows.
Race 1 is done then! I’ll be aiming to release results every other day, so next should be on Sunday 4th. If you want to do any RP/Lore stuff, or just discuss the results, now is the time!

I’m hoping that on the tracks were power is less important I perform well.
