Spec Racing (aka everyone racing in the same/similar car(s))

idk if this has been ever suggested or considered before

What is Spec Racing?

  • Spec Racing (or one-make racing) is a type of racing format where every participant races with akin cars (either with the same car with the same upgrades or very similar cars with on-paper and track times)

How can it be accessible and replayable?

there are a couple of ideas that I have thought of (using FH6 as a basis for them), and some can be combined

  • Race Series: tournament-style races that sees three races (randomised grid placement on the first race, reverse grid placement on the second, and lowest points at the front and highest at the rear for the third)
  • RNG Car Picker: participants can submit their own car (either within a class limit or not) to be picked for everyone to race in (regardless of a person doesnt yet have access to the car)
  • Team Matches: two teams race with two different, yet similar performing cars on the same track
    • this would require a point-scoring system
  • Exclusive-Class Car Racing: featured MP cars can be test driven by races for a limited time
    • could go towards platina, boosters, or skill points (for time benchmarks)
  • Group Racing: cars of the similar motorsports divisions (rally, endurance, formula, gt, etc) can be raced with pre-set upgrades that cannot be changed

and for all my visual learners, mazda mx-5 cup cars are a good example
