After a long time I finally had some moments to build again and I wanted to share my progress. I made a pretty good working pushrod suspension for this car. Next to that it's not much different then my other well handling racing cars. The set-up is somewhat similar to an F1 car.
Pitch - throttle
Yaw - steer
Please let me know if you have any feedback or tips, and I hope I'll find the time to finish this one soon.

@LoonySoup you're completely right. I uploaded the wrong one!
Thanks for pointing that out!
@P7VDS While taking a closer look at your Push Rod Suspension i noticed that, the version you just uploaded is not working at all! The suspension is completely fixed in place by the cubes that hold de hinges that articulate with the suspension rod, the cubes are attached to a fuselage block tha they shouldn't.
@LoonySoup thanks man! Cornering is always one of my main goals!
Never played motor mirage as I always play on my phone, but might try it soon since I have a few free weeks now.
If you want you can steal the suspension system to combine it with your build!
Now i got 1:01 at Motor Mirage, and as i got more confident i found out that the cornering isn't just "good", its AWESOME, it just turns so well!
The steering is very responsive, and it has a good cornering speed, after i decreased the steering angle to just 5 for better precision, i got a time of 0:49 at Gold Prix and 1:14 at Motor Mirage (i still have to practice more at Motor Mirage).
