Can a team enter two cars with the same chassis, but different engine builds?

After seeing engines posted here, I'm doing something wrong. I can't avoid valve float.

Going crazy. I have NA and turbo versions of V8/I4/I6 engines, in DOHC and ModOHV versions. I've got a couple candidates but I can't find the magic bullet. Haven't even bothered to get started on the car design.

You can get ~*massive gainz*~ with big turbos, but the lag makes it pretty worthless, especially since it seems the AI driver rarely keeps the car close to the turbo's power band in low speed corners. I've been trying to use smaller turbos that spool up earlier.

The crew will be rolling test chassis "Gus" to scrutineering later this morning. Nix that. The game ate my goddamn Lua file so I have to attempt to rebuild from square one. *edit* I crash-course recreated Gus, and is awaiting the inspection report. I'm glad I took screenshots of the engine before I closed the sandbox, because it also ate the engine design. I get the feeling Automation doesn't like it when you create a car/engine family, but leave the trim/variants blank. Bentai fucked around with this message at 11:50 on Jun 11, 2015 |

Just for fun, I'm going to make a new Track Mule called "Freddy", to experiment with a FWD entry. I expect there to be tears and lots of cursing.

After the debacle of last night, I've started taking screenshots of my finished builds before I close the sandbox/program. Yaaay early access.

Just got back the scrutineering report (which is awesome, by the way), and something is odd. I chose year 2015 for the car/engine, the sandbox shows 2015 when I load, but when the saves get loaded by MrChips they show 2020, so it's failing. I don't know why this is occurring either. Back to the drawing board again, maybe the game botched something upon saving, who knows.

It should save every time a part is added or a variable tweaked. Not sure if it also auto-saves on exit. Oh and I figured out the problem. The engine got set to 2020, not sure if I smacked a button or what, but I'll chalk it up to mea culpa this time.

My designs can't get below 4'12"-11" at Le Mans, I'm about ready to clean sheet it again. Crap.

So on Friday people can opt-into the Open Bee-ta and get access to NA V6 engines. Will this be allowed if people want to make a V6?

I'm suspect my car's problem is all suspension/tire based. I already got the funky 2020 thing sorted.

What's fun, is when you realize small changes in the front and rear bumpers actually can hurt or help the car. I've gained an entire point in driveability by tweaking a bumper forward a couple cm.

Trying one last attempt to wring any sort of speed out of this car. Are adaptive dampers considered active suspension?

Going to spend the next 36 hours trying to learn the black magic of suspension. And then just give up and run what I brung.

When I get back to town I'm going to have to start making a new entry for next season, cause this one is never going to finish a race.

I'm quite surprised Turn One Hiros are doing as well as they are, did not expect Gus to be anything than a bottom-rung car or constantly falling apart.

The chassis design choices for the top entries were quite interesting. Looking forward to having the boys in the lab take a spare Gus model and see what they can do with the other design options. It's a teachable moment for T1H.Tremek posted:Wow, congrats bentai for moving up in the last race of the season!
