THE CAR LIST HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
Please follow this link to see the car list. I have it in HTML and excel for easy editing.
I will try to update the list every night. If you find a mistake in the car list, please let me know via PM

B-spec Bob (your B-spec driver) has finally gathered up enough spare cash to buy his own car, instead of taking the bus to work everyday... Yes he drives million dollar sports cars everyday at work, but after work he is a struggling guy like the rest of us. His lifes ambition is to drag race street cars against other street racers. We'll go out and buy a car, then take it to the Las Vegas strip to race. The maximum amount of cash you can spend is $ 30,000. See more rules below

This is a test, and a challenge to all you other people, and your B-spec drivers. (no the b-spec driver cannot race on the Las Vegas strip, we are just pretending here)

Rules
1.) All you have to spend is 30,000 bux (NTSC american version cash) not a penny more. Be careful of your car cost, and the components you buy.
Note: You must buy a new or used car for B-Spec Bob. His boss (YOU) will not lend him any cars that YOU won.
2.) Since your "character" has access to garages, tools, and skilled labour the following things are free:
- Full suspension customization
- Full transmission customization
- Full limited-slip customization
- Although you need to pay for these items in game, the money you spend does not count towards the 30k total
3.) Race the car at the Las-Vegas strip
4.) Show the cost of the car, full name, distance driven, and horsepower
5.) Show the cost of your customizations to show that you did not go over 30,000 bux.
6.) Show final power/weight ratio
7.) Show gear ratio's and other modifications for your best time.
8.) Rims are free if you want them
9.) Wings are not free, and count towards your 30k limit
10.) You can purchase another car and upgrades for 30k if you have had enough of your current car. But please try to tune it up first, before you ditch it for the next one.

My Car: Skyline GT-R Vspec (R33) '95 (bought from the used car lot) (4wd)
- Default tires that it came with: Sports (medium) I had no extra cash to buy better tires.
- 324 HP after oil change
Cost: $ 18,514
Km's: 70,482.70 km
Modifications
Stage 1 weight reduction : $ 1,200
Racing intercooler $ 3,000
Racing chip $1,500
Exhaust $ 4,800
Oil Change $ 50
Total Spent: - $ 29,064
Free items:
- Full transmission customization
- Full suspension customization
- Full limited slip customization
After Modifications:
- Power/Weight Ratio: 3.463
- Horsepower: 391 HP
- Weight: 1355 KG



My 1/4 mile time:
12.441 seconds / Edit 12.418 now /
Everything is at default sofar. Once I start tuning Bob's car he might get faster.

So a time of 12.4 seconds is pretty good. If I had a car like that in real life I would be a very happy man.

So show me what you can do with your 30k, share tuning tips, is it possible to get a 10 second car with 30k?

**Times**
All times and people are in this database.

i used the same car you did w/o the limited slip... and i made the final drive ratio 3.91 and ran the strip in Automatic and it ran a 12.403 the car is fast and can be made even faster with tweaking. congratulations to you. and this is a very nice thread

(sorry for stealing your car though) :nervous:
 
I'll submit a car + time in a few minutes but I'm just checking one thing out. We aren't allowed Nitrous are we? I hope not because it seems a bit cheap. I know it is widely used in drag racing circles but I don't think it should be allowed.
Just my two cents Volred, either that or have a section for cars running Nitrous and one without.
 
you should also have one for 25k, 50k, 75k, and 100k to make it more interesting (maybe even 15 or 20k :))
 
ok im in i'll do it tonight ....so its your b spec bob vs my jon claud van b spec.......and nos should be an option as long as you stay with in you budget....because it just makes more combinations of setups

I still think that there should be a section for people with nitrous and one for without. Anyway, heres my car:

No changes to setting resulted in a 12.134 second quarter
A few fiddles (gear autoset on 7, traction control on 1) resulted in 12.049 second quarter.

There are 11s lying in wait for this car.......

.

ya you're probally right about having them in different sections...but if i bought a mini (i wont for this but just in example) it would need nos more than it would need other mods to post a ok time
:dopey:
 
Everytime I read one of your posts, I keep wanting to put "for everything else, theres mastercard".
Cool idea though, by the way. I'll work on some times tonight. 👍

I'll have to try and beat your time.

If you bought NOS post your times using NOS and not using NOS. That way we can see how your car did compared to someone else who has the same car without NOS.
In summary. If you have NOS please post both times.

Sure go ahead. I think B-Spec Bob has a brother...... Larry. Larry has "connections" :nervous: Larry can get you another 30k to spend on another car package. But you might end up with broken legs one day. Oh well they make cars where you can accelerate and brake with your hands.
Southern_Dandy
nice intro to this drag gathering...
1 question, do rims and or wing, do they count towards the 30K ??
Rim's won't help speed up your time. So sure. You can get extra rims. After winning a race the chicks won't come over the guy with the cheapo rims will they?
And for the wing. I think it will affect your race time, so it goes towards your 30k.

by the way, posting a time without the N2O is not really fair due to the fact that the N20 cost $5000

It was your choice to buy the nitrous. Well if there is some sort of leaderboard for this then you will be running in the "with nitrous" category and by the look of those times near the top of it.

BTW my Evo IV has run a 11.94 after a bit of LSD, gear ratio and suspension fiddling. Yay! First car not running nitrous to be in the 11s.

some of the times are already seem like BS, this is a game i dont even know why you would cheat, its either that or you can drive your car like John Force.

as for my time withOUT nitrous:

12.898

Nitrous: 1/4 mile = 11.8 Power/Weight = 3.221
Without Nitrous: 1/4mile = 12.8 Power/Weight = 2.895
 
^ although the times DO seem legit, after studying 1/4 calculators. its just weird when he first posted he went over the 30k budget and how he reposted about 20 mins later, with a couple things taken out...

not trying to flame.
