The Speediest Boi in Town

Brought to you by the makers of vodka launchers, refrigerators, ceiling fans, and toasters

I wanted to add more detail, but I could literally hear my laptop screaming(I guess it was the fan). Also, its 1000+ part because of the tracks. It has no interior whatsoever(I was planning to have an interior though, which is why the turret is quite hollow). If you want, u can place stuffsfsfsfs

I present to you, my best track system yet. It can go over 60 km/hour in a straight friggin line(requires limitless spin mod). Actually, I only got it to around 35/km before my laptop started screaming and frame rates hit an all time low. So to those using it with the limitless spin mod, please tell me how fast you can get it to and how it performs. The turning is kinda iffy, especially when turning at high speeds. But, I do have a fix for this. Sadly, though, it requires 1 extra part for each track segement and a stronger laptop. Anyways, Enjoy!

Controls

Throttle: Engine Power

VTOL : Forward/ Reverse

Trim : Hull Traverse

Pitch : Gun Elevation/ Depression

Roll : Turret Traverse

Note:

Works best off-road(tracks are very grippy on tarmac)
Medium-High Physics recommended(though I havent really tested it out on High). Still works on Low though(obviously, how else can I test it smoothly)
Dont always use full throttle(keep it at around half)
Also, fuel gets used up kinda quickly
w/o the limitless spin mod, its top speed is 6km/ hr lol. So I really, really recommend using it

This mod is WPN78's, not mine, so creds to him

Short Description

The vehicle weighed 6 tons, with the driver and gunner located on either side of the 90mm D. 915 gun mounted on the turret. Since in addition to being very light, the tank was also very short (half a meter shorter than the AMX-13), the driver used a reclined position and the gunner had to have his body halfway inside the hull, making turret traverse limited: the turret could be traversed through 360 degrees when immobile, with a far more modest traverse arc, comparable to that of an assault gun, being available when in motion. The AMX ELC had a SOFAM 8 Gxb engine. Several models of the turret (AMX ELC bis) were tested on chassis manufactured from plans created by Hotchkiss. The vehicle's drive suspension featured four roadwheels and two top rollers on each side. A new chassis began development in 1957, and was completed in 1961 under the designation of the ELC bis; this newer prototype had five roadwheels per side. The prototype is preserved at the Museum of Armour in Saumur.

Also, I realized it came out kinda squat and stubby

    Fix:
    If you are experiencing some difficulties with the tracks(especially at high speed), you should locate the detachers for the tracks(they are at the side wings(?) of the tank) and set disableAircraftCollisions to true

    @fantastekgamer I like making my own tracks. Anything that has mechanisms and what-not. It also differentiates my tank builds from others.
