Yeah I thought about including it, but then ignored it, as the fuel eco numbers from Automation do not represenent consumption during racing conditions. More sophisticated calculations would have been necessary, but for the sake of simplicity I didn’t include it this time.
It is way too expensive to be viable for the touring category in my opinion. Money can be spent better in other areas. I do not need to forbid mediocre part choices.
If you can find a use for it, go for it.
no use of Tire Diameter slider in advanced trim settings to obfuscate running tiny tires
Suspension toe is limited to values between -1 and +1 degree (both front and rear axle). There are advantages to be gained with regards to cornering when you go to these extremes.
Thanks for the transparency in the Discord making me aware of these topics!
The spreadsheet has been updated accordingly. I don’t know if I can make changes to the soon to be published announcement video though, probably I will just add a pinned comment there.
One last question: For those of us who are running the beta version, which version is the stable one? Sorry if this makes me sound like a dunce. I looked at the other versions, is it the one that says “final”?
I’ve realized the benchmark car in the performance spreadsheet may not be the best point of reference for my own car’s performance, since it’s purposefully illegal. Does anyone know what an average overallrace time for the 1100cc and 1300cc classes are, so I can gauge the relative performance for both versions of my car and figure out which to submit?
The times were realistic for a legit 1100cc car, with room for improvement. I just entered wrong values into the self scrutineering part, so that everybody takes a proper look there.
No, a basic interior which looks good from the outside should do the job. Things are a bit more important if you want to build a roadster, as the interior is more exposed. I won’t enforce building interiors, but the voters in the design vote probably will prefer a bit of interior.
I’m pretty sure stuff like this is fine regardless. Besides, didn’t a few of these have road legal fittings at some point anyways? I know at least some contemporary endurance racers competed in the Mille Miglia and Carrera Panamericana, so it’s possible.
