I thought it was a C Class event?

Name: Spaz
Car: 1994 Nissan 300Z (Z32)
Time: 2:38.792 2:35.536 (96/96 Cones)
Date: November 10, 2012 November 14, 2012

C Class Build
all parts are from my garage

Race Springs and Dampers
Race (F) Sway Bar
Race (R) Sway Bar
Race Roll Cage

Spoiler:

sorry yea, its C class, I run so many of these things I copy/paste to get the threads started, I always miss something and leave a typo. Fixed!

Are parts interchangeable? Say if I enter in the mazda and get 2nd. Could I use that for the new Forza 4 or only the classic?

r we still sending the pics in a PM

Nope, parts you win from an event are to stay with the section of BNB that the event is ran for, in the same way that money can't be transferred between them.

Correct. On both parts. Parts from this event are for FM4C cars only. And post your photos in the threads to enter.

Tagged. It's MX5 time.

I know you guys can beat a $25,000 build, its not even full C class yet! And haz vtec!

dammit smooth when I get the autocross tourney rolling you are going to dominate.

go back and take a look at the time indexing I was working with. that's going to be implemented.

I'm putting sugar in someone's gas tank the day of the event.

Yeah, but I want to use my BnB car. One of my laps I hit 2 cones and ran a 2:36 that. If I ran a clean lap like that, it would have been in the high 20's.

BNB Autocross tourney will use BNB cars only. The indexing is covered more in these threads. We did some testing and such before you had joined us here. Sorry, the threads are kind of wordy and a little disorganized but there was a lot of info to cover. The main things to look at are the indexing multipliers, then look at the spreadsheet of times to see how different factors affect your indexed time.

I need to go back and play with the indexing spreadsheet to see if I need to tweak it at all to better suit BNB. FYI, The "test" times for indexing dropped all penalty time for missed gates.

That looks like a great idea Retro, can't wait for the tournament! I personally liked C class because you had to rely more heavily on your tune but B or C is fine with me.

well i guess it's my turn to start running laps

i'll post a time soon

Will probably be open to both, with the index they should both be competitive with each other depending on how you build your car.

add too much tire, power, or lose too much weight and your times start increasing...

Im going to experiment like I said but right now without looking too close at numbers, thinking of adding 25hp or so to the power index categories, and bumping the weight up slightly, maybe 100 or 200 lbs per weight index category. I'll see what happens when I do that. Ill get everything straigthened out, post it for everyone to see weeks in advance of the start of the tournament. I believe I'll have a dedicated car for it that isnt any of the ones I own now.
