High Noon Circuit Challenge
Tsukuba Circuit, 9th April 2006
Story
High Noon Club, a name that people haven’t heard for a long time. Some said the club disbanded in early 2000’s due to they crashed into a motorcyclists and caused a death on Wangan line, some say the leader of the club just ran off and completely abandoned the club but in reality, the club just switched to closed circuit experience due to police are getting more strict about street racing in Japan.
With majority of famous HNC members are either left or retired from the club, only 3 OG members are still active in the racing club which is Tanaka, Yui and Mr.B but mostly they just being an advisor more than just behind the wheel all the time. Although there were some new members in the club in the past few years, they were just mostly acting as extras more than main actors or actress.
But this particularly day, the club decided to look out for another famous hot shot to join their club like they always did back in the street racing days.
And what way to recruit member and showcase their skills other than collaborating with Go Go Drive!, a famous Japanese car show where professional drivers test drive almost every car on the planet on Tsukuba Circuit. Mr.B has some cable with some of the executives from the show hence why they managed to do a collab.

Priorities
Drivability - Granted they are professional race car drivers but they need that drivability and not death traps and such. They can handle oversteers but not that much oversteers, though.
Sportiness - I mean, they’re looking for fastest driver and car for their club, surely they want sportiness in this club.
Safety - Don’t want a car made out of paper, that’s all
Reliability - Race cars or tuner cars aren’t known for best reliability but they don’t want their car to be broken down on lap 2.
Fuel Economy - High Noon Club does enter endurance race that Tsukuba officials held sometimes, so they need a car that does not sip oil like it’s end of the world.
Comfort - Yeah, we know it’s race car / tuner cars, they’re not known for comfort cloud like rides but they don’t want so rough ride that they feel their spine wanted to break

- Interiors are not required but feel free to make one.
- Advanced trims stuffs are allowed but please do bear in mind don’t make a 21-inch rims and tires although the stats said 10-inch rims and tires, nudging more outward of the car’s toe than it was allowed to are fine.
