I really like the AC2, even though it's very simplistic it works very well!

On a lot of your cars I can see to maximise cooling you've made one massive grille. I personally think you should use multiple grilles and vents but you should try incorporating them in ways that won't ruin the look of the car. On a more positive note your cars make sense, their power and such. Well done so far.

Thank you for your post Yes, i know my cars have massive grille, i maked this cars one year ago, i was a noob in Automation Now i think i am better with grilles (for example with the R1(K) ) ^^
I prefer to stay realistic, so i'm happy to hear that my cars make sense (well, except for the R1 GT1, but because i loved the old GT1 category so i tried to restore it :p )
