[size=200]Stage 1 Results[/size]
[size=150]Group B[/size]
[size=150]Demo 1600[/size]
Stay tuned for the stage 2 results which will come tomorrow (probably at the same time of the day)!
I didn’t expect such “noice” performance in the Demo 1600. Good performance for the humble Zap!.
In the Group B it was a pity that the Zeta didn’t performed as well as expected. I hope in the more slow paced stages will gain a bit.
I think my N/A car did pretty well.
It would also be interesting to see whether turbo cars dominated their N/A counterparts.
Why am I not on this list?
Because the second version of your car still did not have the right engine file with it.
Nice, wasn’t expecting anything close to 5th. This bodes well for the second stage
Also, its slightly awkward that we are all being beaten by Der Bayer who is carrying a 100kg more than the rest of us
What do you mean?
EDIT: I think my name to the engine may have caused a problem. I renamed the engine in and out of the .lua, but never resaved the car…
Wow, Razyx, I guess you won there 
, I don’t know how I could have built such a crap car! 
@ SamSheepDoq: I’m sorry for you then, but I told you that there is a problem and you had the chance to solve it.
@XYReis: Currently the best naturally aspirated car in Group B is pyrlix on P7, 10 seconds behind the leader. Turbos are a bit overpowered (at least on this stage). But that’s why this challenge is only a test. The next, bigger challenge will probably be balanced out a little bit more.
That’s fine. I took a look in the model .lua, and no, it’s using the correct engine name. I’m very confused as to what the problem is if it’s not the name.
If you revised the engine after you saved the model and didn’t reload the engine into the model, that will happen. Maybe that’s the cause.
The engine is not linked to the model but saved in the model file after it is loaded into the model. So there can be an engine in the model which is not in the engine manager list. I only need the engine file to make sure the rules are obeyed. And in your case, I could not check the engine which is in the model.
I’m so stupid, I thought standard security requirements are the upper
Next time do not happen to me, like a stupid mistake
Next time I will make a proper checklist for you participants. The checklist will guide you a bit more and will hopefully help to reduce the number of disqualifications. I know you put a lot of time into your cars and being disqualified really sucks. I know that no one of you wanted to cheat. But rules are rules and I have to keep it fair for those who play by the rules.
Since I didn’t have enough time to try anything other than a V8 I thought I’d try my car with an I6 even though the competition has passed. turns out i can get almost 200bhp more out of an I6, giving me a 5s quicker car after adjusting a few things to compensate for the engine, and probably more if i changed the downforce too. ah well
when will you be releasing stage 2 and 3 for us to try cars on?
As soon as I show the results, that means you get stage 2 tomorrow and stage 3 the day after tomorrow.
very good setting BAYER,'m all in your opinion. A checklist can each do it yourself (I’ll do the next time ^ ^). But it would be cool of you if you start off on time the next time the race until a day after. So that the people can see that something is wrong with their cars and can catch up with.
I know that’s a lot of work, and so I offer you my help.
8th and 6th position isnt bad but If my cars had more cornering they would have performed better.
I don’t think that communicating the problems with the player and solving them step by step is very effective. I was more thinking about a checklist the player can go through by himself/herself before sending the files. It should still be the player’s responsibility to make a correct entry, not the host’s. A tool for finding errors easier can be provided, everything else can be frustrating for both sides and the host has no overview anymore. My PM inbox grew by 82 PMs in the past 4 days. You really don’t want more communication and more different versions of an entry when you run a challenge.
Hmm… 19th place, i wish i could make a EGT-84C with a slightly more powerful engine and adjusted gears and suspension, but, the rules are the rules 
8th, not bad for a night and a 6 pack 
I don’t foresee a stellar performance tomorrow in the high speed stage, but I am hoping for top 5 in the third. Bring on the hairpins!
