This is our second official Automation championship. For this series, you will design a car in Automation following a set of rules and then race it around the New Zealand test track. You may not use other player's cars, but you can model your car after them (if they are not an exact replica). Anyone may participate in the championship, and you may post/join both events any time before the due date. This championship will consist of 2 events over 2 weeks: Automation Test Track - Outside Loop (or Main Track, undecided) Automation Test Track - Handling Course To participate, do this event by going to time trials, selecting Automation Test Track as the map, then selecting the layout. In the settings, keep reverse and rolling start at "no," and only 1 lap. Then upload a video or replay file of your best run by the posted date for the event. Post your time, the video, and your car in this thread. In the video description or your post, include whether you used a keyboard, controller, or steering wheel. Please also include a screenshot of the end. Rules (rules may change at any time before the championship begins) *Year between 2002 and 2006 *Sedan, minivan, or other 4+ door (no coupes!!) body style *Engineering Time of no more than 64 months combined (car + engine) *Production Units of no more than 130 combined (car + engine) *Price maximum of $15,500 with mandatory 20% margin *No boxer engines *Maximum fuel octane of 86 AKI/90 RON (regular unleaded) *Vehicles must be completely road-legal [must have a catalytic converter and run on regular unleaded (86 AKI/90 RON) or low-quality fuel (76 AKI/80 RON)] *Engine variant year cannot exceed vehicle trim year by more than one (1) year *Vehicles must have a cruise MPG of at least 32MPG (American) *No semi-slick tires *Vehicles must achieve a market score of at least 70 in at least 1 "Family" category and at least 1 "Fun" category in every country Finally, please use only 1 post per event. It helps a lot when going through to tally scores. If I missed anything in this post, please let me know. Also, if you have done a championship in the BeamNG Rally Group, you should already know the rules here. This group is heavily based off of that. Current Tally (N/A) This championship will begin Saturday October 27th.
Ah ok. Thanks for the quick reply. Also, can I suggest something; can the first event take place on Main Track instead of Outside Loop? Because it's a pain restarting a lap on Outside Loop because of how long it is.
Maybe, the reason I was thinking the outer loop again is because of all the different conditions you face on the way, which is how an actual consumer car will have to go through, and rarely are night races done on legit tracks. I'd really like the outer loop in, but it's also really long. We'll see in a week or so.
