  • (Group A) Gold Prix Racing Tournament Challenge - Final Stage Result 2.3 years ago

    @LockheedLover Technically no

  • [Gold Prix Racing Tournament] VT1- F50(G) 2.3 years ago

    @Borb A reasonable response, if you have time do you mind checking out my original version here: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/w513R9/Simple-Fast-Stock-Car-Engine-Power-Only and telling me what you think (use mouse as joystick)

  • Gold Prix Racing Tournament Challenge - The Group A Racers has been fulfilled. 2.3 years ago

    @Mage2IsTriggered Yeah, it really wasn't balanced, and because of that, I've been shilling the original version of my car quite heavily and unsubtly. Can you download it here please: (https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/w513R9/Simple-Fast-Stock-Car-Engine-Power-Only) and try it using the mouse as joystick on Gold Prix. I have been trying hard to get people to appreciate how good of a car it actually was before this happened (tell me what you think after you drive it if you decide to, but please keep in mind that it is exactly what it says it is)

  • (Group A) Gold Prix Racing Tournament Challenge - Semi-final Stage Result 2.3 years ago

    @WolfHunter9111 that was the goal I am honestly surprised nobody bothered to check how fast the car was before the tournament started

  • Gold Prix Racing Tournament Challenge - The Group A Racers has been fulfilled. 2.3 years ago

    @Mage2IsTriggered I was hoping that would be the case since I made a completely stock car with 0 unorthodox performance modifications on my CAR7L account and had to blast it to the stratosphere to be competitive

    @L3FTxR1GHT Aerodynamics. More specifically, I started with a fast car, then added bullshit to it. My opponent started with bullshit and built a car around it.

    @PoliceZack2527 if you do it please consider what I mentioned in my pinned comment here https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/52c5b4/Kers-and-all-that-reality#comment-4088587

  • Kers and all that reality 2.3 years ago

    @IMFLYINHERE I did not even know that that (a creation being "german") was a thing before you mentioned it so no not to my knowledge (the fact that the car is german is a pure coincidence)

  • Kers and all that reality 2.3 years ago

    @Dragoranos Thank you. The reason I had zero points is that this was my first and only creation in simple planes (I made it before I had this account and the tournament being held was only a coincidence). You should try out my original version that I posted on my @CAR7L account. The first one was my original intent when making this, but when I entered this tournament I decided that that wasn't fast enough, so I sacrificed actually having a human be able to drive it for speed (the motors on this one are turned down to half thrust by the way because I was too lazy to tune it for full power, but feel free to try to unleash its full potential).

    Also, because I might not make anything again and I don't want any of this information to be lost for anything you make, I recommend making the rear wheels steer 5-10° in the same direction as the front wheels, a 2:1 ratio for suspension stiffness to dampers or the reverse (I don't remember which and don't have simple planes on this computer), minimize frontal area, use air brakes with my control inputs to prevent oversteer, and if you use stock tires, 2.6 is the optimal size for both the front and rears. If you take this and the original apart, there are some other optimizations I don't remember making.

  • Kers and all that reality 2.5 years ago

    @WolfHunter9111 is in timeframe no?

  • Kers and all that reality 2.5 years ago

    @IMFLYINHERE The original was a masterpiece by the way capable of cornering at 20Gs with a top speed of 700kph all with stock parts on just 1200 HP and a perfectly smooth experience, this on the other hand is a monstrosity

  • Kers and all that reality 2.5 years ago

    @IMFLYINHERE How did you figure out that i'm German

  • Kers and all that reality 2.5 years ago

    @WolfHunter9111 the previous version just crashed at the end this doesnt and represents the actual reality of the situation (its got the same deviations from standard car design as the nuclear one)
