I’m not good enough to be on a team. Nobody deserves that kind of handicap!
how does one get the sportiness down and the tameness up, anyway?
i’ve set up the suspension to improve lap times, yet the sportiness is still rather high and the tameness rather low on my car. 
Changing the pad type to further down (the blue area) can increase tameness.
Won’t that cause a decrease in stopping distance?

Yes it does! But that can be compensated by bigger brakes and more pistons… which makes things heavier, but you should have no trouble getting below the limits anyway.
i was under the impression that pad type was one of these placeholder sliders that had no effect on our cars yet. 
I sent my car.

Look at the variables that affect sportiness and tameness and see if theres anything you can do to increase the tameness or reduce the sportiness without reducing the overall performance of the car too much. I found a couple of good tricks that helped me, but I’m keeping them to myself 
Der Bayer, when you say you have tested the cars, does that just mean that they work, or that they have passed scrutineering?
It means that I did scrutineering and tested the cars which passed. Only 3 cars failed so far, yay!
I knew I should have left them alone, but after I submitted my entries I managed to squeeze another 20hp out of my BRC1100 engine :S
ah well its just a bit of fun Looking forward to seeing the results
here are my entries to the BRC:
-
the SMW RRC 1100 V8 for the Super 1000 class
Weight: 800.1 kg | 0-100 km/h: 5.80 sec | Sportiness: 49.0 | Tameness: 37.4
-
the SMW RFC 3.0 V8 for the BRC 1100 class
Weight: 1100.0 kg | 0-100 km/h: 3.20 sec | Sportiness: 71.9 | Tameness: 42.7
What file in Automation does the map go into?
You have to copy the folder to Documents/Automation/Tracks.

It usually happens 
, there are many ways to improve not only the engine but the final model too. I’ve also sent my cars quickly… the next time
Here are some specs from the EGT-92H (BRC1100)
0-100 time: 3.1 seconds
Cornering: 1.30g
Top speed: 235kph
Weight: 1105KG (the same as the 84 
)
Power: 414 brutal crossplane V8 HP
The Super 1000 specs aren’t finished yet, it will soon have it’s engine swapped out for a 20HP more powerful unit
Really hoping that I’m not somehow in that list of 3… Even went as far as to zip the comp files, remove all files, and unzip those comp files to be the only ones to check!
Yeah, I hope so too. I just finished up my super 1000 car, and it is kind of pathetic in terms of an engine - 55kW =(
The rest is not bad.

You should aim for 100+ kW to be competitive
Is it right for me to be worried about my considerably lower power output than some of the stats already posted here, my vehicle seems to perform decent enough. But these 400-500hp stats are making my sub 400hp seem irrelevant. 
This is the BRC1100 class i’m talking about by the way. NEED ADVICE plz

Dunno, my BRC1100 Submission is an N/A Inline 6, producing 340 hp iirc.
Imho its fast enough, but we will see.
And i am thinking(and hoping) that some of these stats are a bit exaggerated.
