Future Cars
« on: August 23, 2008, 01:16:49 PM »
well after being declared of my selling of good cars by Hoplee  ;D
i guess i could stop building cars and then selling them within a week, lol.  So time to start building A-Class cars! my fav!

I got a Shelby Cobra the old one, but i can't get it to stay in A-Class.  I tried weight reduction and then wide tires, but discovered that it was stuck at 830 PI even if i added engine mods.  Also street tires bump it to S-Class.

Up next i think i'll make me a Lancia Stratos, a Muira and maybe some Porsche's.  I've wanted an A-class 3.0 CSL so that will be up also.  I can't forget my fav Vauxhall, but that car gives me trouble, or my Exige, but for now lets try out some wacky cars.

Also any suggestions are welcome, i'm up for anything (well almost anything...)

How about a Monaro or its twin GTO?  I have tried a few times and have just come out with an average car.

Hm. Making an open-room non-missile GTO would be interesting.  I've always hoped that they could be more competitive.  Maybe I should give one a look.

I forget what I added, but the Cobra can reach 850 PI in A Class and be quite competitive. :P I'll check up and report back...

As promised, this is how I built up the orange machine to A850:

No engine upgrades
Stock brakes, suspension (it handles pretty good with the stock springs), stock WR, clutch, flywheel, everything else race.
Stock rims, but up 4 sizes (as few as you can get before the PI drops to 850)
Firestone street tyres.
Chuck Norris in the Stig suit.
