The 1979 Markley Palamino SST coupe
Your typical pony car fitted with a 4.8 litre V8, a five speed manual, beefed up suspension, four wheel disc brakes, and of course essential decal package.



And for the racing version, the Palamino Turbo Coupe set up for IMSA All American GT series. With a wide body kit to hold the massive tires, stripped out interior, high strung turbocharged V8, and a host of sponsorship decals.

Ok its your fun reminder time!!

YOU HAVE 24 BEFORE FEEDBACK SUBMISSIONS CLOSE
YES, 24 HOURS BEFORE YOU GET VERBALLY ABUSED BY US (its already happening, nobody is safe)

as stated in my previous reminder, you can still enter if you miss the feedback deadline, your car just wont be verbally abused critiqued by us before final submissions open.

remember, you can always buy a win
^^this is not true, do not send me money in my dms, i will kindly accept it and then proceed to fail you

Please feel free to ignore the two or more you dislike the most

90s tarmac rally car, If you put a gun to my head I'd probably submit this one, as it's at least vaguely compliant with Super 2000 rules

(CSR151)
Currently FWD powered by a NA 2,0L.
Possible final form: AWD Turbo WRC or RWD Touring Car


70s Rallycross/tarmac rally dead horse

Comes with Flat 6 engines from 2,5 to 6,9 liters capacity


80s Touring Car barely started, but some bloke in a shed at least put on some sort of bodykit

…that looks terrible and should be restarted

ayo wassup boiz, its yo freindly ol remindah here just checkin in because word on the street is

YOU HAVE 3 HOURS
YES, ONLY 3 HOURS
SO STOP PROCRASTINATING AND SUBMIT YOUR DAMN CAR BEFORE ITS TOO LATE
although it might be for the better if you dont make the feedback round…

Remember, you can still submit cars after/during feedback but it wont be prejudged before final submissions close, so your car wont have the advantage of getting flamed halfway to hell critiqued by the judges beforehand.

that being said, dont let this turn you away because you can still be just as competetive as some others, or even better, depending on your skill.

APRIL FOOLS
i totally fooled you didn’t I

Anyways, time for some demoralizing very helpful feedback!

Since we have 5 judges in total, I cant fit all of the feedback on this one post, so I put it in a google doc.
I also didn’t have time to get all feedback together (there is a loot), so we’re only doing 5 people for now, more to come later

.
.
The people that have been abused critiqued include:

@Riley
@DrDoomD1scord
@Sol-Apollo
@xsneakyxsimx
@Audi

Good luck!

Good reviews, not as bad as I thought!

On behalf of the other LMH judges, we would appreciate it if you didn’t shamelessly copy our ideas :slightly_smiling_face:

Apologies, not my brightest moment lol.
i’ll remove it

Just a bit of an update,

Suprisingly (or not), i have a life outside of automation, so ive been busy these past few days, and i wont be able to really do anything concerning this challenge this weekend, so i’ll be asking the judges to continue to add to the feedback doc, but for now, ill be relatively inactive here, so if you have any questions, dm any of the judges, as i might not respond as quickly.

thanks, hope to get back on track soon

just a heads up, there’s actually barely any pictures in the doc. on some entries you can see pictures with annotations and such, but you mostly can’t see what the entry being talked about looks like.

Another suggestion in this case: If you could make the names of the submitters (or the cars) headings, they would appear in the outline on the left and make it easy to see whether ‘your’ review has appeared in the meantime or not.

VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCMENT

Due to the fact that the deadline is in 3 days and feedback isnt out yet, im going to implement a more dynamic deadline. whenever feedback is (finally) finished, contestants will have 10 days to finish their car. this way, i dont have to keep bumping this dying challenge with updated deadlines.

thank you, im so sorry for how long this is taking, i chose the worst possible time to create this challenge and theres not much i can do about it.
i will try to finish feedback this weekend, but even i dont know if i can
