San Andreas Touring Cars Debate
« on: May 09, 2012, 07:42:08 am »
After I managed to create pretty good corners using 0.01 offsets, we all thought it would be good to have a race event very similar to Touring Cars.

Unfortunatly, Touring Cars are FWD and RWD so this would kind of limit us to vehicles like Premier, Admiral, Nebula and many others.

However, I was thinking this morning and Touring Cars are high performance vehicles, the above are not.  I don't understand why we need to use there drive state, but ignore their performance.  It's like the Nascar scenario, Nascar is a lot of laps, but not many players wanted to spend two hours driving around in a circle/oval.

Sultan, Stratum, Elegy and the other WAA vehicles all can have special paintjobs, just like the real Touring Cars, that was ignored too in respect to FWD and RWD.

Could you just have classes? Touring Class (Sultan etc) and GT Class (Turismo etc)?

Could make the racing a little more unpredictable lol

a little clear up, later will post videos:

WTCC isn't NASCAR, so cars aren't the same, some are bit faster, others are better in crners

after long tests we found 5 comparable cars:

N-group cars:
Emperor - heavy acceleration, but fast on straight and corners (Japan)
Intruder - comparable with Vincent or Primo (Japan)
Primo - comparable with Intruder and Vincent (Japan)
Sentinel - the fastest, but speed is usefull on long straights only (Germany)
Vincent - comparable with Intruder and Primo (Germany)

JTCC:
Blista Compact
Elegy
Flash
Jester
Sultan
Super GT

V8 Supercars Australia/modern WTCC kind of
Premier

Point is to find as many diffrent, but comparable cars, putting Sultan, will make it sultan race, instead touring cars race.
