    @LiamW The suspension is really soft, which makes it extremely hard to corner without flipping.

    I have no idea why you would want that shape. This is made purely for effective suspension not looks. Whats wrong with the suspension? Do you want a lower version with less suspension travel that doesnt flip as easily? @Jetpackturtle

    @LiamW
    Drivability: 6/10. At speeds of 60 MPH or more, it's very flip-happy, and the suspension doesn't feel right. But climbing hills, it really performs well. Just doesn't handle or take turns well at all.
    Looks: 9/10. The shape is awesome, and it really all fits together, but the color scheme... I dunno, I see a theme in it, just a really loose one.
    Creativity: 8/10. The shape is really wierdly cool. Like a Mad Max meets Transformers kind of cool. And I love the engine... may I have permission to use it in some of my buggies?
