Auto Credit Based on marcox43's BMW E30 Time attack V2
The mighty E30, legend of many races in history, has arrived to simpleplanes to race once again. Equipped with a modified bodyframe and large spoilers, this car is able to make tight turns at 180mph(300mk/h). surely an improvement form his old days. the wheels alignment is the following:
Camber: 0.5° outwards both back and front wheels
Convergence: 0.3° front, 0° back
Stuck at 1:20 on motor mirage. Time hasn't improved since V4, but this one features better aerodinamics (yes, that decorative front spoiler actually works), resulting in less effort to reach max speed.

@Makar1337 thank you very much for the upvote!
@Oski they are good for off-roading, but tend to roll a lot when cornering. They are pretty good suspension in SP, my first race cars used that suspension.
@marcox43 how about swing half axle? It looks pretty simple, and low part count
@Oski search the suspensions by the names I wrote below, each one is different and serves a different purpose ;)
@marcox43 did not understand a singe name but yeah, I will watch some videos about suspension, thanks
@Oski for suspension, the best you can do is watch videos on YouTube, learn how they are built and how they work. For example, this car uses a McPherson strut suspension in all wheels, since it's simple and easy to do and has very low part count.(irl is a pain to assemble xdd). For suvs, I recommend you a double wishbone one or a solid axle bar, wich is very common in heavy duty vehicles (usually solid axle in the rear and wishbones on the front)
@marcox43 well, all I want to know is how to make suspension and the drivers cabin (like this one, not the hollow one).
I am gonna try a police suv with 4wd so yeah.
@Oski sure! tell me what you need to learn and I'll tech you what I can. Also, your Interceptor is the size of an F1 car, or the normal size of a 70's U.S car xdd
@marcox43 could you possibly teach me how to actually build cars? And now I see that my interceptor is actually pretty normal in scale lol
@JeffreyD2015 thank you very much for the Spotlight!
@Flu thank you!
@marcox43 NP!
@FasterThanLight thank you very much!
Seriously just a 174 parts?! Gonna download this right now. This is awesome considering it has a low part count.
@Supermini555 @yoshicraze and everyone, thank you for the upvotes! Didn't expect it would receive such attention even after being smashed to a wall during the race!
<3
@JonorBX yup, with a bit of creativity, one can make 1:1 cars with low part count
@marcox43 it works well ,i just test it,and wow,you can make the car looks so real with only 200parts, now i think there is really need to be a competition for 1:1normal cars
@JonorBX this is my current entry, as you may see, this time I'm going fancy instead of competitive.
@marcox43
Still looks epic though! Can't wait to see it race!
@JohnnyBoythePilot this is the last version, I had to increase the drag a bit from the original V6(deleting small fuselage fins) to make the car able to turn properly, otherwise it would go flying on the semi-final turn of the race. guess I'm gonna keep it with the white paint, I'm too lazy to make the tri color striped painjob xdd
