I was thinking of making a scaled replica for this challenge, but came to the conclusion that I both suck at it and don't like doing it. So I decided to do what I'm good at, and make a car with functional aerodynamics and suspension, in a full downforce open wheel basis. It is loosely based on an F1 car, and strives for simalair performance.
I spend almost 2 full days non stop working on this because quarantine is a B, but I'm quitte pleased with the result. I don't necessarily made it for the challenge so it might not be correct on all the rating points, but I never tried a challenge so I thought I'd give it a go. Hope you guys like it.

Wow
No problem @P7VDS
@ayou2005 removed the other one because this is the one entering the contest. Thanks for the support though!
@PapaKernels thanks. I'll keep that in mind with my next upload!
@P7VDS have the latest version, and when you look under the fuselage block it should say smooth front off under the dead weight, make that say on for both front and back
@PapaKernels so happy to hear that! Never got the smoothing thing, maybe because I only play on my phone. How can I 'smooth' it?
Also looking forward to seeing other entries!
This thing is a beast!!!!! Handling is A+, the only thing your going to lose points over is the fact that the drag is over and theres no smoothing feature used! It would have made this 10× better but it's still amazing! Your final score will be posted at the end of the challenge, just know your going to be one of my favorites!
@P7VDS ok all good, a few points will be knocked but it's fine! Your over the part limit, right in the range I'm looking for so your definitely good!
@PapaKernels Thank you! I looked at the contest again and the amount of drag points are way too much. I can try and lower it but I make use of the drag to make a car handle a certain way (the whole bottom tub is made from wings for downforce and better handling for example) so I prefer to leave it the way it is as I tested it this way. I hope that this isn't too much of a problem.
Wow! Love it! Will test later!
