The popping is simulating backfire from the exhaust as some high performance engines do backfire in real life. As far as acceleration, how heavy is your car?

No seriously, we don't know the drivetrain of the car, or the format, or the weight distribution. Also your engine has a very low redline so whenever you change up gears you're losing a lot of power. Check the acceleration graph on the drivetrain tab to find out whether it is the tyres or the engine that's limiting your acceleration.

I don't see a problem here. :\
strop wrote:By the way, talking about something other than acceleration: MR cars generally don't like it when the front wheels are wider than the rear wheels. In fact if anything they should be considerably narrower. You've got too much friction on the front wheels and it's causing that oversteering behaviour which is very bad in an MR car. It's probably hampering your car's cornering.
