TV & Movie Car Challenge (Round 10): Low Skill and Fast Cars
“Hi There! Did you ever think think we would have 10 seasons of this? Can you belive that after 10 years we still can find these drivers roaming around your hometown”
“Every year we pick the worst of the worst and let them loose in your testing facility. We teach them basic driving techniques and show them how to be safe behind the wheel. Every episode we will graduate someone until only one student remains, who we will give the title of ‘Gasmea’s worst Driver’. But to find our worst driver we gonna give our bad drivers test after test. And for that we will give them our: Brand. New. Ride!”
“Um guys?”
“CUT!” the director screams, “Where is the car guys”
“Got lost.”
“WHAT YOU MEAN LOST”
“I dunno”
The director sighs audiably “Just put a new tender out and we’ll see who will reply”
The producers are looking for a new hero car for the newest season of “Gasmea’s worst driver”. An edutainment TV show displaying inept drivers and teaching useful driving tips. The hero car is getting drivin at least once every episode. It will be used for mostly higher speed test.
Rules for the car:
-
Trim year 2015-2019
We will be buying a more modern car but mostly Remaining stock. Nothing brand new. -
Max aprox. cost of 40k
We have a production budget here. Less is better -
Automatic gearbox
We are dealing here with low skill gasmean drivers, they will likly be unable to drive stick -
RWD
We are planning to do some challenges where AWD or FWD would make the test harder than they need to be -
At least 2+2 seating
While mostly the bad driver and their partner will sit in the car, sometimes Andrew likes to tag along -
Fixed roof
Due to safety concerns we can not allow any convertables. We are mostly looking for coupes and saloons. -
91/95 Ron, Catalytic converter and ESC
Your normal legal stuff -
And yes please keep realistic with your car engeering
What we are looking for
Driveablity
Safety
Reliablity
Design
The hero car needs to be easyish to drive and ofc look good infront of the camaras! Well. As much as possible. But also it needs to keep the drivers safe, and should be able to take a hit… or two… or ten.
0-100 km/h time
Service Cost
PU / ET
The car needs to get to speed in a reasonable time. And lower Service Costs and PU/ET times allow us to keep the car alive for longer.
Fuel Eco
Price
Please dont send us money pits. We are not planning on doing cross country drives, but being on an airfield in nowhere means that it is a bit far to the next fuel station. And of course saving money where we can is always a plus.
Naming Scheme:
Model/Family Name: TMCC10 - “Username”
Trim/Variant Name: Car/Engine name
