Better contracts & And a possible rating
#1
So while going through your interesting but predicable contracts. That pop up... I noticed there some consistencies that I found boring.

They ask for a certain displacement, certain cargo (which is understanble), and certain horsepower.

However I think it would be more realistic. To ask for specific and more varied stats and/or requirments.

The military (and civilian contracts) may want a vehicle to be a certain size/weight (overall).
Certain amount of ride clearance.
Dependabilty, or safety rating.

Even adding more specifics like Towing capability or 0-60 times would be believable. Even though a truck only capable of towing 22lbs that passes the requirements for the military is feasable I doubt its what the military would really want IRL.

Also a more varied MPG requirement would be nice... I mean the HMMV has a MPG rating of just 12 mpgs or lower.


Which brings me to 2nd suggestion "Off road capability" as something that is rate-able. As it's something that has been asked for in the past. It could be an important stat for Pickups and SUVs (Also Rally races would be hosted).

Basically off road capability would be based on...
Chassis Strength.
Torque.
Power/weight.
Ride height (influenced by chassis height and tire size).
And drive train (with FF/FWD being the stronger of the drivetrains)

Rally races would be influenced by:
Driver skill!!
Acceleration
handling/Drivetrain (for dirt rallies)
Ride height
and the top speed slightly.
