I went for a David and Goliath approach with my entries - a heavier, more powerful FR entry alongside a less powerful (albeit much lighter) MR one. In fact, their philosophies could not be more different - if the Thunderwolf is a TVR Cerbera, then the LS20 is a Lotus Exige.

–NOTICE | Clarification–
- There was a discrepancy in safety regulation saying the safety level must match with the model year. and not trim year. This was my mistake and I apologize for this. It’s always supposed to be trim year but for some reason I made a typo. No one pointed this out yet but @Mikonp7 has done so. (Because of a car with huge difference in model/trim year). I believe there’s only one another car affected by this mistake which I will remedied privately. Once again, I apologize for this terrible mistake.

–NOTICE | Half Way Passed–
- 12 days since the challenge start and 12 days left for submission. Half way passed. Half way to go.
- I have received 21 entries so far and all of them passed inspection, I also have cleared any backlog of entries without much difficulties. The result indeed is very interesting already, but with so many days to go there could still be surprises brewing.

Thank you, are the cars sent directly to you or posted here?
Please send it to me in the DM. You may have to browse the forum and like some posts first before being able to use that feature.
–NOTICE | BeamNG.drive Update 0.30–
- Today BeamNG has been updated to 0.30. This means I have to test if there’s any difference that would effect the challenge.
- The handling and powertrain export remain pretty much the same. Both cars exported before and after the update drives pretty much identical and the resulting times also matched.
- One key difference is the new manual gearbox system. Shifting time is now measured by how long player push the button, if it’s too fast the synchronizer would get damage. I have tested this and can report that no car would either be disadvantaged or benefitted from this. Basically because shift time matters so very little in the grand scheme of things.
- After Automation Ellisbury update releases. I will stay on stable branch which should be available for quite a while still. Obviously, any entries then should be made on the stable branch and not open beta.

–NOTICE | 5 Days Left–
- Less than 5 days before submission closes, Although there hasn’t been any entry for 3 days as expected with the open beta update dropping.
- I have made sure that any legit entry submitted within the period has been tested. This will mean that the first set of results will be release very quickly after the submission period ended. I’ll probably release it in a set of 7-10 entries to give myself some time to finish running the last couple of entries that may still be submitted closer to the deadline.

Yes, I’ve got the file now.
–NOTICE | 24 Hours Left–
- 24 hours until the deadline.
- If there is a late entry that is illegal, I will allow another 48 hours after the deadline to fix any mistake made. Considering how quickly previous entries got fix that should be plenty of time.
