Road racing candidates
Road racing pages should become the main evergreen traffic layer. The first version ranks candidates by tune direction and testing need, not fake leaderboard certainty.
These are transparent starter recommendations. Cars move from candidate to tested only after route, event, or zone notes are added.

Road racing candidates
A high-end Japan-focused road candidate with room for aero, gearing, and grip testing.
A balanced handling candidate that should help build reliable A-class and S1 setup templates.
A likely high-demand car where separate street, road, drag, and drift pages can interlink.

Source: HokiHoshiA useful best-car page needs a visible promotion path. These steps show whether a pick is still a transparent candidate or a car that has enough testing context to recommend.
A plausible pick with clear role, class focus, and tune direction.
The car has notes from one repeatable route, zone, or event type.
A calculator state or preset page explains the starting setup.
The page can explain why the car beats alternatives for this job.
candidate
A high-end Japan-focused road candidate with room for aero, gearing, and grip testing.
Start with S1 stability, then test whether S2 power creates useful lap time or just harder handling.
candidate
A balanced handling candidate that should help build reliable A-class and S1 setup templates.
Prioritize braking, front-end response, and clean corner exits before power upgrades.
needs-testing
A likely high-demand car where separate street, road, drag, and drift pages can interlink.
Make a dedicated road build first, then compare against drag and drift builds later.
A best-car page should explain the decision, not only name cars. Use these rules to decide whether a candidate deserves a dedicated tune page, a car page update, or a lower-priority note.
Road candidates should stay stable when braking from high speed into medium and slow corners.
If the car washes wide everywhere, fix tire, ARB, differential, and aero direction before adding power.
A road build needs gearing that works on the route, not just a big top-speed number in the garage.
Use this route before moving a car from candidate to recommended. It keeps the page useful for players and easier to update when new cars or patches arrive.
Run the car in A / S1 / S2 with the safest tune direction first.
Force the likely weakness: braking, turn-in, recovery, gearing, or rough-road stability.
Attach the car to a preset, calculator state, guide, or car page before promoting it.
These tests decide which cars stay as candidates and which ones deserve deeper tune presets. The same plan also creates useful update notes for repeat visitors.
Follow-up routes
The best-car page should not be a dead end. Once a player picks a candidate, send them toward a car page, preset, settings guide, or weekly event path.
Open individual car pages for class, PI, acquisition, tune direction, and candidate status.
Attach a shareable baseline preset before a real in-game share code is verified.
Use the slider guide when a candidate needs handling, gearing, braking, or diff refinement.
Use event restrictions and reward cars to decide which candidates deserve the next test.
Road racing pages should become the main evergreen traffic layer. The first version ranks candidates by tune direction and testing need, not fake leaderboard certainty.
Start around A / S1 / S2, then move higher only when the car stays repeatable on the target route or event type.
Cars labelled candidate or needs-testing are transparent starting picks. They should move to tested only after route, event, or zone notes are added.
