Some questions just to make sure I follow the rules:
If my race car has a total cost of 25K auto bucks for the factory team. That means I can enter 3 cars to compete?
Do the cars from the factory/private team all have to be the same or can there be slight differences between them? (Like suspension tuning, wheel dynamiter, differences in the engine).
What can and can’t we change? I’d assume suspension layout must remain the same as homologated cars, but we can change the springs, dampeners and sway bars. If an engine is a SOHC I’d assume it must stay SOHC, but am I allowed to change the number of valves? I’m assuming bore/stroke changes are allowed
You need to add service costs to the budget, so if your racecar is $25K you’d already be close to the limit with 3 cars. You can use the budget calculator in the main post to test how many cars you can enter in each round.
All cars from the same team must be the same. You can give each of them different liveries though.
Yes.
The plan is to keep that a secret until the homologation phase ends. However, I understand it might be frustrating if you make some choices that end up screwing over your racecar. I’ll make a poll to see what people think.
With regards to there being multiple races, are we allowed different setups for each track (Camber, toe, gearing etc) or will we have to make something that’s supposed to work everywhere?
I completely understand if you don’t want different setups because of amount of .car files that would entail.
Could you include GT for the normalized desirability? For the categories you listed they only want sedans or hatchbacks, so you get a pretty big penalty for building a coupe. Most of the cars you provided as examples are GT.
