Welcome to the Budget Car Challenge Thread!
Gt5anticip8r inspired me to create this challenge several months ago with the creation of the Hot Hatch series. This is the Budget Car Challenge thread, wherein every month, the GTPlanet community is invited to buy, modify, and drive cars they normally wouldn't in a series of challenges with ever-changing themes.
I talked about it once on one of the Top Gear threads, and now I'd like to share my thoughts with you, here: this competition's main restriction is based on budget.
Any GT5 player with about half a hundred grand or more to burn can take part. That budget, which I announce with every rules set, must be spent on both a car and modifications. Any car and any modifications are fine as long as the total cost adds up to that credit budget, and the only work that you may do on your car for "free" is maintenance work in GT Auto, especially if you buy a used car.
Once you've made your parts purchases, you may not remove them until the current season is over.
Remember, everyone, it's about being savvy as well as stylish and swift. Buy the best car you can or one of your favorites within the budget, but remember that cheaper cars will net one more tuning options. Stealth preorders which came for free and pre-race-prepared or pretuned cars (the Spoon vehicles, HPA Stage II, etc.), however, are not eligible.
If you want to eliminate guesswork and lots of long, sleepless nights in the UCD, check out this site (thanks negative1 http://www.mygranturismo.net/ but remember that the prices in the UCD are subject to change. Be on the lookout for the best buys possible.
The assists allowed are subject to change, but usually the only assist you may utilize is ABS set to 5 or below. Grip reduction must be set to Real, and mechanical damage shall be set to Light. Manual transmissions only, too: if you're having trouble getting the handle of a Manual tranny, here's the perfect place to muck about with it for fun and bragging rights.
The objects change with every week, including time attacks, drift trials and the odd Photomode competition.
To make sure everyone's playing on the same level field, I will ask all competitors to register their chosen car(s?) with me and a list of all modifications made. The total must, again, line up to the announced credits spent in total on the car and any modifications. Every season, if this goes on long enough, you may pick one car (and only one car) to compete in, so pick carefully!
So how does that sound? Email me for anything at rrvcrinale@gmail.com or at suborbital@verizon.net and, please email me with your GTP username and your best times. If you are a late entry, you must also post your car entry, including its cost and a list of parts given to it. Don't be shy: join in!
In order to send your times, take a picture of your best lap time and the car you used to put it down, then email it to me at the same email address I specified above.
Good luck, and good driving!

All drivers posted have eligible cars. I'm not going to post the car types and names over and over and over again, but I will say this: competition is closer than I would have pegged it to be, and even the Camaros' power couldn't hold off the Subaru. All-wheel drive and the robust mill of the Impreza may be keys to this car's success...I'll see where I can level the playing field in track choice next, though.
No Founder's Car time this time since this week was a difficult one for me. I couldn't post a time like I hoped.

Gt5anticip8r inspired me to create this challenge several months ago with the creation of the Hot Hatch series. This is the Budget Car Challenge thread, wherein every month, the GTPlanet community is invited to buy, modify, and drive cars they normally wouldn't in a series of challenges with ever-changing themes.
I talked about it once on one of the Top Gear threads, and now I'd like to share my thoughts with you, here: this competition's main restriction is based on budget.
Any GT5 player with about half a hundred grand or more to burn can take part. That budget, which I announce with every rules set, must be spent on both a car and modifications. Any car and any modifications are fine as long as the total cost adds up to that credit budget, and the only work that you may do on your car for "free" is maintenance work in GT Auto, especially if you buy a used car.
Once you've made your parts purchases, you may not remove them until the current season is over.
Remember, everyone, it's about being savvy as well as stylish and swift. Buy the best car you can or one of your favorites within the budget, but remember that cheaper cars will net one more tuning options. Stealth preorders which came for free and pre-race-prepared or pretuned cars (the Spoon vehicles, HPA Stage II, etc.), however, are not eligible.
If you want to eliminate guesswork and lots of long, sleepless nights in the UCD, check out this site (thanks negative1 http://www.mygranturismo.net/ but remember that the prices in the UCD are subject to change. Be on the lookout for the best buys possible.
The assists allowed are subject to change, but usually the only assist you may utilize is ABS set to 5 or below. Grip reduction must be set to Real, and mechanical damage shall be set to Light. Manual transmissions only, too: if you're having trouble getting the handle of a Manual tranny, here's the perfect place to muck about with it for fun and bragging rights.
The objects change with every week, including time attacks, drift trials and the odd Photomode competition.
To make sure everyone's playing on the same level field, I will ask all competitors to register their chosen car(s?) with me and a list of all modifications made. The total must, again, line up to the announced credits spent in total on the car and any modifications. Every season, if this goes on long enough, you may pick one car (and only one car) to compete in, so pick carefully!
So how does that sound? Email me for anything at rrvcrinale@gmail.com or at suborbital@verizon.net and, please email me with your GTP username and your best times. If you are a late entry, you must also post your car entry, including its cost and a list of parts given to it. Don't be shy: join in!
In order to send your times, take a picture of your best lap time and the car you used to put it down, then email it to me at the same email address I specified above.
Good luck, and good driving!

All drivers posted have eligible cars. I'm not going to post the car types and names over and over and over again, but I will say this: competition is closer than I would have pegged it to be, and even the Camaros' power couldn't hold off the Subaru. All-wheel drive and the robust mill of the Impreza may be keys to this car's success...I'll see where I can level the playing field in track choice next, though.
No Founder's Car time this time since this week was a difficult one for me. I couldn't post a time like I hoped.
