Riceburner Challenge - Read OP

By standard safety, you mean standard 80s, correct?

Yes, I mean standard 80s.

Alright, so the budget for sport budget is wank, as Leo said.
How about this:
(The following numbers are the prices that the cars sell for with a 0% profit, if you’re confused, I mean the price stated here:)

$17000 limit for base models.
$19000 limit for premium models.
$20000 limit for sport models.
It’s only really possible to max out these numbers if you use mild quality sliders, I think they’re pretty reasonable.
On the subject of quality sliders, I think we should impose a production units limit too. Any suggestions?

Also, rules have been updated in the OP regarding fuel systems and chassis and panels and such. Also added a rule stating that all models including the sport must have entertainment systems. Before telling me this is bad, bear in mind they’re sport cars, not race cars.

Ok, I think this is going to be good now!!! Only a couple little issues for me but nothing worth mentioning now, I can work around them :wink: :smiley:

I can make a car that scores high on the converstible sport budget with 75% of the max limit, and that car has a tiny 2494 cc v8

Don’t pay attention to the markets, they’re too broken to use to be honest.
Also, Blasterspewpew, feel free to tell me any issues.

The only thing that bugs me a little is the tire limitations, base should be allowed to use the hard long life since well…its cheap! Other than that I think this will be fun :smiley:

Hm… I’ll add that.

Tomorrow I’ll add the specific areas in which your cars are going to be judged, and I’ll show you the points system. After that, I’ll open the entries.

Great, cant wait :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

i don’t really get why the mid engine Miata is banned. The Mr2 was Mid engine, the Pontiac Fiero was mid engine, I think it would make for some interesting competition, don’t you think?

Yes, they would make for good competition but as I said, they’re a pain in the ass to work on and don’t make sense from an RP perspective.
Ricers prefer Miatas and S2000s over MR2s for a reason.

Because most of them can’t drive worth a damn and are killed by snap oversteer when trying to show off?

I disagree. Ricers prefer Honda Civics, Accords, CR-Xs, Acuras, Nissan 200s and 240s, Altimas and Sentras, Mazda Proteges, 3, and 5 series… Miatas are more of the Tuner segment, as most ‘ricers’ dismiss the MX-5 as being too much of a girly car.

But that’s every rear wheel drive car ever…

Mid and rear engine cars are far more notorious for it.

Yup, I wanted to create a good RR car, No luck with that. it was a death trap unless I put much wider tires in the rear

:laughing: The ricer hate is real!
But yeah, no mid or rear engined cars, sorry guys!

[quote=“Microwave”]:lol: The ricer hate is real!

also no FF allowed?

Nope, it needs to be RWD.

So where are we with this challange?

Need to lay out the scoring thing. It’s not dead, I’ve just not had enough free time to be able to sit down and think about it. Shall be done this weekend.
