With an impact gun and self tapping screws I can put a license plate on anything. If you'd like, I can come to Toronto and even put one on you.
Why would you not just say " the car needs to actually have been produced" or something similar instead of something silly like "you can put plates on it".
If I put a plate on the side of my garage and PD puts it in the game, can I use that?
I now get what you're trying to say, but there are no "plates" in the game, so how can you possibly quantify the ability "to put plates on it" if that is literally impossible in the game.
as most people know you can ask me either on here or on PSN or before the race.
If you responded in a timely manner and we had significant time to prep cars, this would be fine, but when you don't post the races until Wednesday (leaving only 2 days to get cars together) and you take 12-24 hrs to respond to a question that makes it kind of difficult. Can you not see how absurd ( and frustrating to the rest of us) it is to post a race without clear restriction guidelines only 60 hours prior to league races starting and then taking significant time to respond to inquiries. By the time it gets sorted out, it's race day. Let's not forget some of us do have other things to do besides play PS.
A lot of the frustration from ER, Dude, and myself comes from not having adequate time to get cars together prior to race night. I don't believe there is any reason that the races should not be posted by Midnight on Sunday into Monday, giving us 4 full days to get cars together and ask questions, especially if the guidelines leave obvious open questions. For me it's not so much of an issue as I can buy all the cars and tune them in the lobby, but people like ER, Mega and Cyclone who don't have tons of credits need time to figure out which cars to buy, and having them buy and tune cars that inevitably turn out to be illegal because the guidelines were unclear is pretty crappy.
Going back to your point, specifically the Miura. In the game it is the P400 Prototype , not the P400, P400s, or P400SV, however, it is marked as CN 0706. For those not in the know, Lamborghini numbers their chassis so they will always be able to be identified, similar to how GM and Mopar used to stamp blocks and firewalls so you could identify if a motor was original to the car.
The 3 Miura prototypes that were built were not sold in 66 when they were produced, but actually as model year 67 cars after being modified to meet the specs of the actual production run and having chassis numbers stamped on them. they were 0706 (the one in the game), 0862 and 0961.
So this particular car transcends both the proto and production car spectrums, however, the original buyer would not have been aware of this as it was not discovered until 13 years later in 1980. The naming of the car in GT6 makes it particularly confusing because until it was discovered this car was actually a prototype, it would not have been known as it's name in the game "Miura P400 Bertone Prototype CN 0706 '67". It would have been simply a Miura P400 '67 and the chassis number 0706 would hold no significance. On the contray, if it was prior to being stamped and sold, it would be a "Miura P400 Prototype" and actually be a 66, not 67, with no chassis number. The naming in the game combines the two identities of this car and inserts the chassis number to show the correlation between the two, thus creating the conflict between fitting into the "street" category, or being excluded from it.
. So we're OK to race LMPs at 710pp, but a car that has better aero and better brakes we need to push all the way down to 635 so no one will be challanged by it?
