    And @P7VDS, this car was made for realism. I figured out it’s missing a few features so I think I’ll reupload one day

    But look @P7VDS these 80s f1 cars weren’t always to most aerodynamic

    Again great looking car! Also nice use of wings on it!
    My tips: because of the high front drag combined the large, double hinged springs, especially on the rear, you get a shocky and unpredictable understeer. Vertical stabilezers help, shorter, stiffer springs at a higher angle work better.
    Also less forward grip and slightly more sideways grip on the front tires can hel with this too.
    The rear wing generates as much drag as downforce. A much smaller angle would me more effective. 10 is plenty, 15 is high but can be useful, more than 20 is overkill!
    Giving the front wing a bigger angle than the rear wing increases stability and prevents understeer. The balance between center lift and center of gravity would be pretty good if the wings were set at front 8, rear 5. Something like that would perfectly balance the car
