I wanted something different, something that didn’t do in years :
Saturday, 23 September 2023, Germany, when BeamNG announced a drag racing event where you need to be the fastest, with the low budget given, try to dominate the drag event with an all-rounder car, this is not only a 1/4 mile racing, but you race it in 1/2 and 1 mile, so be smart to win the challenge

PRIORITIES
IMPORTANT
PERFORMANCE
Drag racing only need speed and power, and go fast, if the car slow, you will be beaten by everyone
HANDLING
Even you need fast car, you also need handling, so the car doesn’t lose control when accelerating and when launch, also it will get consistent times
SAFETY
Safety first, these cars go over 250 KMH, imagine if your car loses control and got rollover in 300 KMH, and the car’s roof got totally destroyed, make sure the driver survive the crash uninjured and prepare fir the next race
KINDA IMPORTANT
RELIABILITY
What happens when the engine blow up or a tyre blow up at 300 KMH, if you don’t want them to happen, make sure you have a high reliability, this also decreased service cost
COST
Even though this is a race event, you also need to manage money, just imagine you cannot eat a food or drink because you don’t have the money for them, or car service after your skill issue
NOT IMPORTANT
FUEL ECONOMY
Fuel cost some money, but why really make them important, you bought a drag car for 50k, but you complaining a fuel that cost 5$??? dumb
COMFORT
The drivers are real mens, not a child who complains about rear legroom
SPORTINESS
This is a drag car, why would you even mind turning ability, are you fucking drunk driving a drag car in nurburgring
Styling
Even if the car looks good, it doesn’t matter, drag racing is all about performance, its not judged, unless the design is extremely shit like fixtureless cars (fixtureless cars will be instabinned)
SUBMISSION
-Only 1 submission, that means you cannot resubmit
-As always, send me car file
-Make an ad (also accepting shit ones, its not judged)
-You can test car, but do not post the drag time
NAMING CONVENTION
Model and engine family : BDRC - your forum username
Trim and engine trim : Your car name and engine name
OPEN/CLOSING
-Open submission : 26 September
-Closing submission : 10 October
I will notify if you broke the rule, unless you didn’t send me car file
IMPORTANT : Every rule you broke, you will be penalized 5 seconds, if you broke 3 rules, you get instabin
INSPIRATIONS basically any shitbox dragster
TRACKS THE CAR WILL BE RACED :
- West Coast 1/4 Mile drag
- West Coast race track straight
- Italy airport runway
Realism also judged, remember
I will also entry, but it wouldn’t count in challenge
remember that this is my first time hosting a challenge, so expect any differences to challenge you mostly enter
