Home-built Racecar Challenge

105k RailfanEthan  6.7 years ago

Produce a fictional race car, built by you. True grit and skills are essential for creating your ride. Providing race qaulity techniques should be a challenge in itself.

What do I look for?
-Racing styled fictional car
-Realistic functions (handling, weight, etc (speed is exceptional because SP physics)
-Uniqueness

Rules:
-No heavily modified engines (ex 1000000hp = nono)
-Mods are allowed, I just won't be able to see the mod's function because i'm on iOS
-Doesn't have to be a successor, if it isn't provide a link
-No sketchy paint jobs pls
-Have fun

Builds will be graded on:
_/10 Style, design, features
_/10 Handling
_/5 Functionality
+2 points if a racing number is added, please make sure someone else doesn't share the number for realistic accuracy
+3 if you manage to put in some train reference (I'll let you decide that)
