Headline: Chroma Constructors' League
Chroma Constructors' League or CCL is a ro-automotive racing league that opened recently under Chroma, a known racing company in the community. Today, the league's first season is open to 12 applicants and the company allows any car to enter as long as they meet certain requirements. There are two leagues under CCL is RoGT1 and eGT, which is RoGT1 with changes for electric cars. To quote the CRF President, the regulations for the RoGT1 are as follows:
SPECS:
- HP limit is 1000
- engine displacement limit is 5 liters for non-turbocharged cars, and 3.5L for turbocharged cars (doesn't mean you can't put turbo V8s and stuff, trust me--be inventive!)
- no electric powertrain components allowed, the eGT league is made just for that
- weight limit is 1030kg (2271 lbs)
HOMOLOGATION - At least 10 cars must be sold to customers. The car must be road-legal as judged by me and Osomanaga403.
- Engines on street-legal and racing versions must be the same format (e.g. V8 = V8) but can be different sizes.
AERO:
- base drag and downforce will be based on the looks of the car as judged by me and Osomanaga403 and how you explain the aero functions of each car (you must explain in #gtz-applications when applying), but you may set up the car in different ways. Just know that more downforce will lead to more drag.
- ACTIVE AERO IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED, INCLUDING ELECTRONIC ACTIVE AERO AND FLEXI AERO.
CHASSIS:
- All teams must use A-Chassis 6C 1.4 or 1.5.
BODY:
- Mesh and block cars are both okay.
The only confirmed team participating is Chroma's own Chroma Racing Team, with sponsors from FireBird, DecaSporta, Blender, Roblox, and Epic Games (Tencent). CarBlox will keep you updated on the other participants. You can join the Chroma Constructors' League Discord using this link I provided.
Espila CEO Threatens to Sue Following Zanic Car Design Similarities
Espila's CEO HanCS75 threatened to sue Zanic when the CEO revealed the Zanic Stellaris, where many noticed similarities to other brands including Electility and Espila. While it was an honest mistake, that didn't stop Han from threatening to sue. Han said he wouldn't sue, but destroy, ironic of how he obliterated Razzo's future in the ro-automotive community hosted at AutoWorks. The matter was quickly resolved once the Zanic CEO made this statement yesterday:
so there has been a fair bit of chat about me stealing designs from other companies for my own cars and whatnot, (ignoring the mc20 and nio) my cars share a concerning about of similarities with other roblox cars and i just want to say, i am genuinely not trying to copy other brands or steal ideas. the entrum, annulus and stellaris are my attempts at being completely original. if you feel i have copied your designs in any way shape or form, i am truly sorry, i did not mean to do so. i will try harder to be more original and unique with future cars i apologize for anything i have caused or started, sorry.
The company is redesigning its cars to make them more unique.
Lastin CEO Tired of Constant Mockery and Shocking Revelation Disclosed Thanks to it.
Lastin's CEO enes4558 called out multiple brands for making offensive jokes against Lastin. One of the companies mentioned was P.I.O, and its CEO, (Whooper) iLuhDuhPenguin defended his company and even raised allegations of Lastin stealing the blindspot monitoring system from a loaner PIO. enes CONFIRMED said allegations and replied to Whooper with this:
well, I may have stolen your blind spot warning system, but instead of creating such stupid statements on my brand, we could come like a real ceo and talk through DM and we wouldn't have a discussion here. so why did I steal? When I first started car manufacturing, I didnt know anything about scripts, I stole things like scripts,plugins from other brands, yes its true, but now I know enough to do them myself, im sorry if you expect an apology.
I assume they took it to the DMs and CarBlox doesn't know anything beyond that. Lastin doesn't steal anymore for those wondering and the case has essentially been closed.
Razzo Dazzle No More
Following a drama I have no interest in getting banned for talking about, Razzo and its CEO Omologata have been banned from AutoWorks alongside a very salty MrBlimbo/ carmaster93 (who hates me for spilling the tea on what happened and that he started the drama, which is both confirmed true).
Razzo will not be seen at IAS 2021, as the list has already been confirmed if you read our last Industry Digest 12. Espila got backlash for the CEO's stance on the drama's subject (too controversial for this editorial thanks), but will still be going unsurprisingly. Razzo's CEO Omologata has contacted a moderator about Razzo's blacklist and has a team helping him with it apparently (no names will be disclosed for privacy reasons and this is based of what I have interpreted from what he has said).
CarBlox will keep you updated on what happens next.
CarBlox Asks: Upcoming Argon Specifications
Today at 11:56 AM, we asked Argon and its CEO, TranquilCrimebot24, about all the Argons he has been revealing, and what their plan is for release dates and car specifications. The original question went like this:
When is any of the Argons coming to market? You say whenever you import it to Roblox, but that isn't even an approximate time. Q3 2021? Q4 2021? Q1 2022? Is there even going to be an Argon automobile out in the nearby future? Furthermore, is there any thing beyond the car's design that you would like to share? Asking for the upcoming Industry Digest 13.
TranquilCrimebot24, or Jay replied with "there is a spec sheet in the process right now, it will be shared when completed
as for the release date of the vehicles i am not sure at the moment"
Now, at 5:32, or just over an hour ago, he posted the official spec sheet for all the upcoming cars from Argon. Check it out the full thing here, or stay here for a picture of the spreadsheet down below. This is a work in progress and with that, subject to change. We don't exactly know what
This is the 2022 Argon Bexoterga, the car that I assume will be the owner of the above specifications.
We don't know much beyond the looks and specs, but Argon will definitely continue to release more on the cars as they near completion. CarBlox will make sure to write about any new updates.
Outro
This story missed the 6 PM MDT release date I was going for due to personal matters. There was so much that CarBlox DIDN'T cover, so I will be linking the AutoWorks ROBLOX Group if you would like to see what we couldn't include! Check it out with this link if you'd like to join or get the link for the Discord, where all these stories are from!
