V2 Indy Racer
@TheFightingSquid

i was relatively new to SP back then so I just tried different things to see how they worked. Since youre working on the indy race look at my recent post that has several builds i never uploaded. One of those is called V2 Indy Racer. That was my other build for the indy race i think is actually faster but crashed more than this one which is why i chose this instead. @TheFightingSquid

I will! I have gotten within 2 seconds, but with a plane that crashes half the time. It also loses a lot of speed in unnecessary turns. The AI seems to like your plane more and flies it more efficiently. Did you do something to make that happen or is it just luck? @Texasfam04

thats pretty cool. i kinda remember your user name but i would prob remember the plane more when i see it. search ABC123, he is a user that basically built only for the races and his builds are very hard to beat.@TheFightingSquid

Don’t know if you will see this, but in the 2017 Indy Air race, this plane eliminated me in the first round, even though I had one of the fastest planes in the competition. I decided to download it and work on a plane to beat it. Right now I am 3-5 seconds behind on the indy air race and can beat in on any course with less turns. I will have my revenge! (I did take inspiration from your tail X design, and may have copied your pitch settings to get that early acceleration). Great Plane!

Thank You for the upvote, your plane was very nice, i just watched the clip. The race had a lot of really great planes. It was my 1st race so we will have to see how the next one goes. Have you done any other races? @TheFightingSquid

Good race! Too bad I had to go against you in the first round.
