The Drag Race Contest

[KvickFlygarn87]

Your task is to design a dragster that can race down the runway, and use a drogue ONLY to brake.

There is a sign up period of a little more than 7 days, ending November 22nd, 20:00 Swedish time.

Any submissions before that will get you disqualified.

After the sign up period, you get 24 hours to upload your submission.

Classes:

There are 3 classes: Jeb class, Bill class and Bob class. These three will race independent of each other and the classifications are:

Liquid fuel powered: Jeb

You may only use up to 2 1.25m engines, so no mainsailpowered behemoths.

No SRBs on this class.

Solid fuel powered: Bill

No BACCs or liquid fuel engines. Limit of 10. One 1.25 booster counts as 5, sepratrons count as 1. Which means, you can have 2 big boosters, 1 big booster and 5 sepratrons, or 10 sepratrons.

Electric powered: Bob

Only wheels and Xenon engines in this class. Maximum of 400 stored EC, but you may generate electricity on the go.

Rules:

You must come to a stop before the runway ends.

All wheels must remain on the ground.

You may only brake using drogues and brakes on the wheels.

You get one shot at it.

The vehicle must stay in one piece at all times. Therefore, no decouplers or docking ports.

You may not use any mods or any cheats from debugging, However, some part clipping is allowed.

There is one exception to the above rule and that is that you have to use this for parachute slow down. You may also use some mod that adds radial drogues.

Scoring: Your score is your highest speed over the surface.

Screenshots:

Your submission must contain the following screenshots

Vehicle in VAB/SPH

Vehicle on runway

Vehicle when going down the runway

Vehicle with chutes deployed, if any

Vehicle standing still

Screenshot of your F3 menu

Any other screenshots you feel like you should include.

Good luck to everyone.

Chute will be cut...once contact with surface...no?

[KvickFlygarn87]

Ah, right, I forgot.

Added a little something to the rules.

Not unwanted, just done a few dozen times already.

Not unwanted, just done a few dozen times already.

Not only this but your specific rules limit creativity / designs AND you're requiring participants to download a mod to submit an entry.
