hate to be demanding.... but can you make a version with an extended back end so it can recei

Managed to place a 3.8V8 transversal. that's it.

Suspension setup is key, double wishbone tends to take up a lot of space.

Just noticed you can morph the position of the side mirrors. Nice feature.

Is it just me or are the times on the test track not working for this car?

I can put in a 4.2L V8 and it tops at almost 300km/h but the time is still 20 seconds slower than cars with much less horsepower and 220ish km/h.
The car is heavier, but even if there was a problem with the setup, this simply seems not right. Wheelspin is there but not over 12%.

Mr cars have rather different dynamics. If I recall correctly, it's possible to get this body down to under 2:04 around the AT track (I'll go back and look at the times when I get home). You just need to find the right setup. It's largely to do with the weight distribution.

[BurningBridges]

Yes, but a good time at the airfield is around 1:30 for cars in the 200 hp range and this one has almost 400.

Post a screenshot of specs? That'd probably provide us more info.

[BurningBridges]

There is one on the previous page

Oh yeah. My bad, it didn't load for me the first time.

While I don't know what your settings are, the handling is pretty badly affected by lift. Try an aero fixture (though its exact placement will vary), and making the front tyres a lot narrower.

[BurningBridges]

Thanks for the tip but I dont think it's the setup that makes 20 seconds slower than all my other cars with half as much horsepower.
I have tried aeros, brakes and everything already and I can get it to 2:50 but that's still not enough.

Is it a turbo with aggressive boost? Mr cars especially HATE those.

I'm really curious now. Would you like me to take a look at the car and see if I can't work it out?

[BurningBridges]

I tried with other chassis and engines and it affects ALL cars with mid engines.
They are all up to a minute slower than they should be. I tried the Lotus Esprit wedge car, the C-Group prototype and the largest chassis from the official version (it has the same behavior).
So this is not specifically related to this mod.

[strop]

So then it's something to do with MR cars. But without knowing what it is, presumably, about your engine, I'm not sure what the cause would be.

I dont use turbos.

I think it's a waste of time but here you go http://www.global-explorer.de/20150206/V8.zip

P.S. my fastest car is 2:35 min (Automation Test Track) and 1:31 on the airfield with a 2L 4 cylinder 200HP
this one is ~ 3:00 and 1:47
