I'll do it as long as I can find time for it...I already do one at gamefaqs and I'm mostly playing Battlefield 1942 right now.

HP restrictions or Power to Weight restrictions are best. Limiting money sucks unless it is for initial car purchase only. If you want to go Euro, then definately go unlimited money or go limited car purchase money. I'd also suggest that all cars race using the same tires.

It is also important to state if you will allow race cars, tuner cars, and/or prize-only cars.

K this is what I've formulated so far.


European production cars only.
De La Sarthe 2.
500hp restriction.


Iffy about this part. either a $100k limit for cars and parts, or just trash the the price limitation all together and everyone has to run a certain tire.

Re: revive the Competition Thread?

just set a limit on the hp to weight ratio. that way nobody can get an elise with 500 hp.

Running equal tires and capping power-to-weight is the best way to go.

Hey spam, whats a good weight-to-ratio restriction, I haven't gotten to check my GT4 in a while. As far as tire restriction, either the R3 medium, or economy, maybe even simulation?

Re: revive the Competition Thread?

I was looking at my past cars w/ 500 hp and a good weight ratio would probably around 2.3-2.5. That puts the weight at about 1150-1250 kilos. Thats what most of my GT500 production cars are at.

Also I was running last night practicing and I'm thinking Race mediums for this one because w/ 500hp standard and sport tires don't do well.

I'm thinking for next time do standard tires with a lower horsepower limit.
