Formula 1 Car
A simple F1 car. CONTROLS: AG1=Energy Recovery System (ERS) . AG2=Drag Reduction System (DRS) . AG3=Rain Lights. Top speed is 240 MPH with DRS enabled - 229 with DRS disabled. A green light in the cockpit view will flash when DRS is enabled - the orange one will be steady on while ERS is enabled. NOTES //// ERS does not affect top speed. ////

Specifications: The car contains working aerodynamics, using a DRS system to reduce drag by leveling the rear top wing, which increases top speed. The car also contains an ERS system, supposed to help with acceleration. There is not yet a recorded change. The car is powered by a 960 HP V8 engine. Set on standard racing slicks, it is cushioned with a less-than-complex pushrod suspension. The car also contains a regulation titanium halo, which supports the DRS light.
