this racer is designed for the rattle snake race and the ridin dirty race with massive travel good breaking performance. i dont know if the wings really create downforce.

    @emptybox what about them? honestly with players yea it could work but in AI control if you want to build for that. you simply need something that works with nothing but max throttle and roll for steering.

    whats about control surfaces or VTOL steering?

    @Tully2001 to put it simply. wings are good for flat on road racing (which your charge does amazing... idk how you made that thing so good). and off road racing that doesn't have jumps. which is currently none of the off road tracks.

    @Tully2001 Its why I've been trying to avoid using them on some of my WIP designs right now.

    @emptybox @Tully2001 another thing worth mentioning is while providing down force. if you go air borne. (aka off road tracks) they can cause you to flip backwards and such. making landing impossible a lot of the time. so its a double edge with off road vehicles.

    if u scale the wings on the bandit up u can see how the suspension compresses at 200 mph

    @Tully2001 allright I can see what you mean now. turns a lot worse iwth out the wings.

    thx i will note that. i just thought if wings can produce lift why cant they produce down force?

    Also it is very good. the suspension can handle nearly any impact (reasonable ones that is). the only thing I'd say. is for an AI controled version. make sure your front turning wheels are set to low forards grip and 15 degrees of turning. that usually works best.

    Just a note. I am pretty sure wings do not create down force. I've noticed no difference in how a vehicle handles with or with out them. (except which way they lean when air borne)
