Oh, surprise surprise mine isn’t far off the mark either. But not as high on 5573 lol (thanks probably to tiny engine and kind of better than average for the period fuel economy)
So I changed the valves to make it legal and the market stats went up. Nothing else really dropped that wasn’t easily tweak-able back to where it was.
My other car was still better though.
Remember that there is inflation adjustment, so… those are 2010s “credit”.
I can’t wait until the track race! I tuned my car for good balance, but will it hold up against the more powerful models?
So here’s my entry, the Lenraj Viola. I thought it would be quite competitive, but after reading all of your posts, I’m not so sure anymore, guess I have to wait and see.
Looks like Cobaltgirl and I had some of the same designideas, except cobaltgirl’s seem to succeed way more, but I’m still learning.

Also KLinardo, I totally just tried putting in a 13L V12 into the giant not-Cadillac body to see what would happen. Even running an AFR of 15:1 and getting 1060hp, I still couldn’t get the damn thing to the minimum required fuel economy! (The end result, however, did make me lol… still not as good in terms of scoring or track performance as my car, just a much higher top speed…) I am guessing that your entry is right on bumping the fuel economy limit.[/quote]
I used the not-Continental mod because it looks awesome and I originally had way over the MPG requirement when I built the car. Then I realized I couldn’t use multivalve. So I hacked off 24 valves and went DOHC instead of SOHC because I needed the efficientcy boost and tweaked the transmission until I got 8.3 MPG. When I first changed the heads I was looking at 0.9 MPG 
@riso nice to see that im not the only one using the dated styling 
@lenraj on the otherside, yours look really futuristic. like late 70s, early 80s styling
2v SOHC worked to be the best for the market for me, and since i only could eek out like an extra 4HP, and 0.3% with DOHC. it wasn’t worth it anyway.
Am I the only one using direct acting OHC? There was a small knock to power but the redline could go higher with less penalty to reliability.
I considered it but my engine has a pretty long stroke to reach it’s size while still fitting in the body I chose, my red line is only 5000rpms due to rod length so push rod just gave a better power curve within that rpm range.
I pretty much just always use pushrod. Even when it is completely impractical. I like them. Sue me. 
Nope! I have it in my straight-6. Makes 145 HP.
i see that only 2 people (including me) that is using SOHC
Currently
DOHC - 15
SOHC - 3
OHC - 4
OHV - 3
V12 - 18
V8 - 6
I6 - 1
So here is my car. It’s called the Balducci Fioni. V12 RWD with 283hp. It is pretty fast and handles terribly, so most of them were consigned to life in the nicely heated and air-conditioned garage all over the world, not actually being driven much. The quality issues are all a myth, this thing was built to last on the road, even though most of them never get used in slightest.
Lol the specs are almost exactly the same as my Fuganza (except I would very much like to see the Fuganza ridden hard and put away wet).
27 entries, considering capping at 30 at this point.

Am I the only one with zero sportiness whatsoever? It seems mating a straight-6 to a slushbox might have not been my best idea.
I’ve got fairly low two digits sportiness, but I’ve also used an automatic for the added drivability and comfort. Still possible to get close to 200 in the GT Premium market (even with the 30% markup) with an automatic, as sportiness isn’t as big a factor to that demographic as other stats.
