White Lightning v1.1
One of the best handling cars on the site in my opinion. It is my best ever car and I'm right proud of the working suspension. In the final testing stages I managed to make it do the most awesome barrel roll/corkscrew of the Gold Prix raceway edges and land it like a champ. It looked really cool.

FINAL NOTES-
-I had so much fun testing this and trying it out. This is probably one of my creations I will not delete. I hope you have as much fun with this as I did. It can do all of the jumps if you jump at the right speed. If you are a good driver you can do the GOLD PRIX race and never go less than 85-90 MPH.
Please enjoy and feedback is appreciated.

I may have heard of him, but I can say that he was not my inspiration. My dad used to have this old Ford racing truck that he called "White Lightning". It was pretty fast. I think it ran somewhere around ten seconds for the quarter mile.
@Squirrel
@SteadfastContracting Love the look of this car. I must ask about the inspiration of the name for this though. One of my favourite guitarists had the nickname of "White Lightning".
I guess so. Thanks then!
@SledDriver
@SteadfastContracting A good design is a good design, no matter when it was made, right?
Hey, thanks for the upvotes!
Why give such old news attention though?
@SledDriver
Well, cool! Thanks! I did put a lot of work into it then, but looking back, with the experience and skill I've acquired since then, I could do a little better. Nonetheless, I am still really proud of the suspension work so I do hope you enjoy it!
@Chemicalau
@SteadfastContracting It was at the top of your models, so I figured you put a lot of work into it. Also, it looks amazing!:)
Hey, thanks! What made you look at this?
@Chemicalau
