Hypercar Shootout (discussion)

Well you could count me in.

Ideas for tracks maybe

Good all round and much faster to load etc then green hell

A real world top speed ring

And a flying lap of Laguna Seca

I would def weight rounds 1 and 2 more than 3 and maybe have the beauty contest first

And scoring of round one:
we could take all of the attributes (if a minimum is set we only add the points above the minimum ie. 40 minimum safety but a car has 58 safety we only add the extra 18 points above the 40) add them together and then divide by the cost of the car to get a score. And a production unit limit could work with scores weighted towards how close to the set production units your vehicle is
ie. the production unit limit total is 1000, however you can use less units for a higher score or more units for a slightly lower score( if you use 950 production units you have an extra 50 points added to the 1000 benchmark, if you have 1050 you have 50 points taken off of the 1000 benchmark) Because think of the ford GT when it first came out demand was really high, too high for the company to actually produce enough vehicles to sell to the market so even though it was desirable it was still not as competitive (in Europe and Asia and Aus) than the big three hypercar makers (ie Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani)
Edit1:Also we could take an average of the competitiveness across the 3 regions in the hyper categories and add to the total score before dividing by cost.

And I swiped this from the net thank you wikia
The term hypercar has been used to describe the highest-performing supercars. For example, the Ferrari Enzo[1]. On Series 13, Episode 02 of Top Gear a drag race was made between a hypercar, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 Edition and a less-expensive supercar, Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV. Another drag race was made between new hypercar, Bugatti Veyron and older hypercar, McLaren F1. Specifically, it is used to refer to next generation supercars.[2] Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson defines the following difference between supercars and hypercars (season 9 episode 5): “Supercars are designed to be very, very fast, drivers cars above all. Hypercars are designed to show off, turn heads, and be as flamboyantly exotic as possible, which is why Lambos have always been more exotic than Ferraris but they have always paled in performance…” Hypercars tend to be high horsepower cars with a supercharging or turbocharging systems[3]; they are also 240 MPH plus cars (McLaren F1 setting the top speed standard for 12 years[4]). The cost of a Hypercar can vary between $500,000 to no limit[5]. The idea of the Hypercar has been floating around for many years such as Ford’s GT90[6] concept and the McLaren F1, but production of these cars has only come about in recent years. Hypercars are produced by a production car company, but some companies like Underground Racing[7] take regular Supercars like Lamborghini Gallardo (200 mph car), and give them Hypercar quality such as their 250 MPH Twin-Turbo Lamborghini Gallardo[8][9].

Edit2: Also If we could get multiple people to run this ie; someone does the races and math’s someone does the reviews and someone does graphics

Edit3: I just threw this together to get an idea of what a hypercar is[200% markup and roughly 1000 manufacturing points] (this took about 7 mins total)
