Okay, I printed out your spreadsheet down to the Focus. I'll start there and see what happens. I have a few Britcar logos ( I think) I'll try and work up a banner, unless you have a pic of what one already looks like?

 

I did make my own logo, however i reckon your logo with be significantly better.  I'd also start from the top of the list, Ignore cars that can't hit 1.3 on the max forza grip so far as i reckon they might not make the grade.

Thank you very much for the help here, i really want this to be one kick ass race(s)

I think it will be awesome tbh.   Once we get the stuff figured out, I'm gonna run a subaru in "Super" Class because I want to race a really well tuned AWD,  Good fun with drag tyres :D

Could you start building some of the next class down? let me know if you encounter problems with the cars being too limited in choice.  I had to adjust the Super class to allow for more choices!

Have just built 4 Inters. Pretty sure they won't be great. Not even sure I'm doing it right but I'll enter them later. One is DLC, not sure if that's ok.

DLC is fine  :)

 

The builds are easier then it looks - put drag tyres on. reduce the weight to the specified limit after adding the required parts (cage, drag tyres) and then bring up the bhp. :)

Then let me know the tyre sizes and grip ratings.,

You don't have to, no. But I wouldn't see why you wouldn't want to seeing as PI doesn't matter and that you'd make good use of a gear box to get the car faster under accel. ;)

Bugger. Need to pay attention.

 

Had 4 set up. Everything good. Tyres looked at and grips noted.

 

Shame I forgot to look at displacement for the Inters 99. Even bored out, 2 dont make it. The other two means they go above class by a single hp in one instance, 3 or 4 in the other.

Was looking for fun coupes.

Toyota Celica SS-1  - scratch

Mazda RX8 R3 - scratch

Mistubishi Eclipse - scratch

Fiat Coupe - scratch

 

back to drawing board

I would suggest that the rotary engines are either banned or clased higher? - but testing will confirm :) 

Cant wait to see what we come up with :D

I've made some changes to the classes - Inter was far too limited on the bhp sides, so i've brough them a bit more into scope.  To compensate, I've brought the lower class up a little otherwise the mx5s and minis might not omake it :) 

 

Not sure if there will be futher adjustments - but the grip is looking at 1.3 also for Inter.

Church, Tourni has both of these already if you need it right away.

The Subie top color is a factory color with the graphix added below, really deep midnite blue I think.

Cool Tourni. So I can revisit the coupes then! What conversion factor are you using for lbs to kg. I'm away from my computer but I know I've been applying .453kg to the lb. Nice paints Oldschool.

yeah but being away from my computer, and not being able to enter on the spreadsheet, I wanted to check we were working to the same number of decimal places.

Turns out I was not, and 1000kg using my less accurate figure means a 3lb difference in a 1000kg!

So can now happily tap away on my calculator (on the phone)

Thanks for the help chuch - very interesting now.  We may have enough information to go on and set the grip ratings for each class to 1.3, 1.2 and 1.00 respectively. 

There is a pretty awesome line up so far, I'll need to stick a couple of base tunes on cars to see how they perform on a track, i also think that we are going to need a long time for people to get involved with this.  I'm hoping that a big community effort will make this one to remember - tuners, painters and racers :D

The advertising campaign will start soon :D
