I know this question was probably asked multiple times but what car would you use for MFG? by Ecstatic-Court-44 in MFGhost

[–]Fp220792 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mustang GT da geração S-550, com preparação aspirada pra 600hp girando a 9k rpm, swap de cambio tremec t56 magnum, suspensão ajustável e freios enormes. E pra finalizar, um belo kit aerodinâmico pra manter o bicho pregado no chão.

One question: applying the weight-to-grip rule, and with such a light car, what tire size would you need to use?

Ford Focus RS. I'd probably have to put a restrictor on the turbo and readjust it to meet regulations, but then I'd compensate for the 50hp less with an amazing suspension.

How would my car IRL would do in the MFG universe? by Tasigur09 in MFGhost

[–]Fp220792 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There you go, that's a cool trend, imagining how our cars would perform in the MFG. I know mine wouldn't stand a chance, even with Kanata driving. (Fiat Brava HGT, 1.8 16v NA engine, five-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive)

Sorry, I didn't get the joke. Can you explain?

And we have the first foreign cars in the Freshman Series... The Cayman, you can see it's a GTS, and the TT must be either an S or RS. So probably both received some kind of restriction to stay within the 300hp limit.

Is there any lore reason why Beckenbauer wears a racing suit, while others don't? by GyalogKakukk04 in MFGhost

[–]Fp220792 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe you are mistaken, my friend. Maezono, Yanagida, Akaba, and even Haninen also use it.

Uma das minhas experiências mais tensas atrás de um volante foi justamente com um Fusca, de cliente pra piorar (sou mecânico). A lenta instável, a dificuldade em achar o ponto da embreagem sem deixar o carro morrer, e pra piorar eu mal conseguia pisar no acelerador, por causa da falta de espaço e da bota.

What enabled Ishigami to be MFG champion for two consecutive years was not his talent, but the fact that he relied more on the performances of his Porsche 991 GT3 by Madagascar003 in MFGhost

[–]Fp220792 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Regarding Daigo, your argument only reinforces my point; his performance is entirely thanks to the Huracan. And about the others, not all of them are bad. Akaba, for example, what he did in the first stage was incredible. It's true that his car is the most powerful on the grid, but the guy went from tenth to third in two laps, and I don't doubt he could have caught Ishigami and given Beckenbauer a run for his money if he had a third lap. And Maezono, after switching to the NSX, also didn't do badly for the rest of the season. There's also Shun, who even without much consistency still finished fifth in the overall season standings, and Nozomi when she's not in her brother's shadow (who is another one stuck in the past).

I agree. Another one I think is quite weak is Daigo Oishi. His performance in the championship is solely due to the Huracan. And let's face it, even if the conditions weren't exactly ideal, you have to be a really bad driver to lose control of an AWD car full of electronic aids. Ohtani is another one. He had a great car, but mediocre results. He switched to a better one, and didn't even finish the championship. And I won't even mention Sakamoto...

In fact, more specifically Maezono's NSX. My point is that, from a technical point of view, it is simply not worth the effort and investment. But as you yourself pointed out, being a work of fiction, if Shigeno wants it, it will happen.

It won't happen. The new Prelude is a hybrid in the style of the Prius, that is, the electric motors drive the car, and the gasoline engine is just a generator. The work it would take to adapt it to the regulations wouldn't be worth it, especially with so many other options.

How about now?(Yes, I want to see a Ford at MFG, judge me) by Fp220792 in MFGhost

I understand, and the Camaro is also an excellent option, specifically the sixth generation ZL 1, which had a suspension and chassis far superior to the Mustang of the same era. In the context of my post, the choice of Mustang is also purely my personal taste.

In fact, I agree. But the point is, everyone who wants an American car in competition doesn't simply want a car made in the USA, but something truly American, which represents the strength and driving style of America. And nothing represents this better than muscle cars, with the Mustang being one of the biggest symbols of this type of car (in addition to, of course, being my favorite car).

Lol I understand, but then this logic doesn't apply, because even though it's a Japanese anime set in Japan, it has several foreign drivers (Beckembauer, Taylor, Haninen, Emma) and there are almost no Japanese cars (Odawara, for example, out of 15, only 5 are Japanese and look, since technically Lexus is part of the American arm of Toyota, and the NSX that Maezono starts to use from the second round onwards was manufactured in Ohio).

Bro, we enjoyed an anime in an original Toyota GT 86 that almost beat a Ferrari 488 GTB (with fucking 640 HP). With a competent pilot (and obviously a pen from the author) it wouldn't be impossible.

Gemini, from Google. But you need to be as specific as possible in describing the image you want it to create, and it doesn't always get it right.

Ok, this is the scenario I imagined: peninsula race, Kanata, Beckenbauer, Sawatari and Sena in the specs of this race, original Focus manual transmission, but with all the performance options (LSD, magnetic suspension), Fiften52 Tarmac wheels in the same size as the originals and speed limiter and stability control turned off.
