Clicky
P.s: small rule update to account for performance cost. Thanks to PapaKernels for pointing that out to me, making it a default thing for future challenges
P.s.s: Rule update again
Hey everyone, i'm a dumbass, i forgot to write the rewards. Well, now it's written and you all can check, sorry for my stupidity
@Stealth117 like i said, GT is based on mass production vehicles, the GT40 was a purpose built race car, cope all you want, its true, its not a true GT Racer
@Stealth117 youre 1 and a half years late man...
Yeah, the GT-40 is not a GT Car like a Porsche 911 is
@Dragorans ok ent/ ok then
talvez tenha que cancelar meu projeto, embora talvez eu consiga um tempo para trabalhar nisso dnv
I might have to cancel my project, although I might find some time to work on it again
@V no, thats more of a prototype than a GT Car. If you need an idea on what to make, here's a couple classes i recommend looking into:
DTM (pre 2021 and post 2021)
IMSA GTLM and GTD
WEC GTLM
World Sportscars Championship GT3, GT2 and GT1
Japanese Super GT
Brazilian Stock Cars
@Mage2IsTriggered also, I know next to nothing about cars, would I be able to enter this thing into the challenge?
@V sure
Can I have multiple wheels merged inside each other? It will look and function like a single wheel
@EchoWhiskey11 go for it
So since we have more time, could we possible build a second car?
Just a couple more tweaks and I'm probably going to post my car tomorrow. I'm following the rules of course, but I'm taking a less traditional approach.
@DragoransEscarti well, alright, id love to see more cars to review!
Okay, now that I really feel ready to go in, I think I'm going to make a car with an emphasis on performance, but not forgetting about the details!
After all, I'm finishing the entrance to the 100 part rally Challenge....
@THEREALLYTHEVILAGERbp you can use an old car, its in the rules section
Hey can I use my old car I make or make new one ?
@DCLDCL yes you can. It says that in the opening paragraph lol
Can I make a fictional one? @Mage2IsTriggered
I am the fastest car builder of all time lmaooooooooo
@Mage2IsTriggered thanks!
@CheckOneTwo no they dont need them. If you wanna add them, go for it
@Mage2IsTriggered do the cars need decals, (ie. Racing Numbers, Sponsors)?
