Ladies and gentlemen, do you have the confidence to get a high ranking? I think the LMDH first place has already been decided.

A well-deserved congratulations to all the podium finishers and a big thank you to everyone for participating, whether you entered, voted, or both. I wasn’t sure if such an event would be successful, but I think it went quite well even with some hiccups along the way.
I’m planning to run more rounds of this challenge in the future with different themes, so do let me know what you’d like to see next and what I can improve on for the future.
But that's for another time. ROC still isn't done yet...
Just like the AGC23 finale, I’m going to write up an in-universe article (or maybe two) for ROC.
However, since exams are coming up for me, don’t expect it to be coming so soon. Most likely in a month or so.
In the meantime, I need some additional info for fleshing out the lore. Podium finishers, please send me the:
- Full team name
- Full driver lineup with names and nationalities
- Any additional lore you’d like to add regarding race operations, company/team history at Le Mans, etc.
The rest can decide how you ended up in your finishing place. Did your driver make a costly mistake and spin out whilst they were in a good position? Did they make contact with another competitor? Or was the car stricken by mechanical failure, necessitating several laps spent fixing it in the garage? You decide (if you wanna be included).
See you in the next one.
What? The top LMH got beaten by two GTE cars? And the overall winner was a rear-engined beast based on the mid-sized '88 Indicator body set (2.75m wheelbase)??? This reminds me of the real life Le Mans '95 where a McLaren F1 GTR won overall as well as clinching top honors in GT1, ahead of the more fancied prototypes! Anyway, congratulations to all the class and overall podium finishers (and especially the class winners) - it was incredibly close at the top, with the top two being separated by a little over one point.
And I can’t wait to see the flavor text that accompanies the podium finishers’ final results - it’s bound to be as entertaining as the challenge itself, that’s for sure!
NICE!
Never expected to place so high.
What an amazing challenge, great premise, amazing write-ups and great designs from everyone!
Obvs congrats to the winner for such a creative and detailed design.
very epic
PortalKat’s GT 1st place in 2/3 category’s? Okay so I’ll put Furry Itasha on all my challenge cars ig.
Nah but GG’s everyone!
I thought it was a woman
….
It’s not??
It never was
Nope. Both of you got played by a Bara Furry livery. X3
there’s really someone who critisized lmh for looking similar? like, what did you expected ?
It was built on the 2.85 m version of that body and the wheelbase stretched up to 2.9 iirc. Full sized car level of interior space and decent frunk luggage space while maintaining a midsize footprint.
Something a little more creative, perhaps.
damnit, i was looking for something like this, but it has expired.
any chance we get another edition?
I have planned some similar challenges for the future but it won’t be happening anytime soon. In the meantime, feel free to use the ruleset to build your own cars to the same specs
yeah.
only thing is that there aren’t any engine regulations? (at least from what i’ve seen).
i know this is a design competition but it would be nice to have some basic engine regs to follow
If a sequel to this were to be made, it would most likely be set in the 1990s or 2000s - we already have a similar (but more comprehensive) challenge set in 1960.
