What's this? A new competition? Indeed!
This time it will be about Params/AI for cars. You must edit the parameters of NY54, to get your car to run the fastest around three tracks. After the time is up for you guys to create cars, I will download them all and race them on my PC with Wolf, using the no collision option, and no power ups.
Here are the tracks:

5 laps:

15 laps:

What can you edit?
Anything your heart desires, so long as it doesn't break any of the following rules:
No body/wheel swaps or any adding of models.
You MAY however add a spinner, if you truly want to add a cosmetic spoiler.
You may include a skin, but it's not required. It would look MUCH better if you did though.
Your car may not be faster than 35 MPH, which is the stock speed for NY54.
The LATEST that car submissions can be turned in is on December 6th. On the 7th I will race the cars and see which one is the fastest. Cars will get points that corresponds with their position, and the lowest points win. Decided to change up the way scoring works. ;)

This is more so a parameters competition, because I thought of this idea before Citywalker's finds. Speaking of City's finds, you can find them yourself right here.


'But what if I don't know much about parameters?!'
Enter anyway! There's definitely a fair share of variables that could make your car do well. What have you got to lose?
Here's a topic with a breakdown of parameters.txt:
Right here, click me!

'But ZR! Why is there parameters with the AI?'
That's something I thought of as well. See, this contest was thought of BEFORE City's AI finds, back then it would've been more parameter based. Actually, it would've been ALL parameter based. I really didn't want to scrap the whole idea, so I combined them both. If it was AI ONLY, I think that people would be turned off because it seems too difficult to do. It's not necessarily a 'read a tutorial and know how to do it' subject, and can come off as intimidating.

Send submissions to ZR (That's me!) via PM.

Parameters editing means that you'll get a whole bunch of rail-handlers.

Anyway, where do I send my baby?

Received.
And here's my car's skin...
For the hell of it I thought I'd share.
It's called 'ZR Hates Everything'.

And I've only tested it on supermarket two, when I was driving. No idea how it will perform. Overall I spent under an hour on this car.

Yeah, I'll zip them all up as a pack, unless someone wants to individually submit it, which obviously they are free to do.
@Venom, received and replied.

Here we are. Simply adapted Got Rice's paintjob to NY54's mapping, added a spoiler (thanks Halo!), faded glass parts in blue (thanks Nero for the paintkit!), moved the aerial, added some nice semirail, superfast-accelerating 4WD params and a 5min-calculated AI using CW's latest quick AI guide.

Lemme present you...
GOT MORE RICE?

DL link is here: ...no.

Unless you want other people stealing your params, I suggest you take down the download link, hence everyone PMing me their cars.

Exact xD. Only thing, I kept the original hull, as I didn't know if those custom tracks had narrow passages, so the wing isn't collisioned (it's physically immaterial). But hey, ricer cars usually have insane wings, so what? :P

Yeah, you should've kept the original hull.
So far I have 7 cars! If in the rare occurrence that I get more than 11, I'll do a quick one lap race on nhood1, and the slowest cars won't make it to the final race.
