I got the program here: http://forum.racesimcentral.com/showthread.php?t=101964
And I played around with it for couple of hours. Great fun! :)

Wheelie (engine at the back, huge tyres, lightweight, tons of power, high final drive):


Stoppie (engine up front, lightweight):

a bit too much stopping power :):


Hard cornering (lightweight, high center of gravity, wide grippy tyres):


That's it for now. Tried to make a bike, but wheels can't be at center :( Tried to make a car with huge tyres that can drive upside down, but unsuccessfull, usually tyres just drop under the road. Tried to make an ultimate dragster, but all I got was 11 seconds. It's not that easy really :)

EDIT: If engine is made heavy and powerful enough, with huge flywheel, just blipping the throttle (in neutral!) results in car flipping around engine! GTi does a backflip, and GT sideflip :lol:
 
that's awesome...:lol:
 
A little update. I tried to replicate that trick, where whole car with something about half a million horsepower spins around massive flywheel. When reving the engine, flywheel is very resistant because of inertia, so it's actually easier to spin the car with the engine around it :)

GT has longitudinal engine layout, so it does a sideflip:

GTi has transverse engine layout, so it does a backflip:
http://www.saunalahti.fi/~mxm7/GTi_backflip.avi (606kb)

In real world, even if we had such powerful and light engine, and such small and heavy flywheel it wouldn't be possible. Flywheel wouldn't allow car to jump so freely because of it's mass. But in LFS it's not modelled as having a mass, but only having a rotation moment of inertia.
 
:lmao:
 
I dunno, it has something to do with the way these values are stored in the game. Only demo cars are "unlocked". You can use MecaniK tweak (at the right), which affects all cars. It works in some different way.
 
Yes you can but the server must have the same Tweak settings as you.
And a tip, Put the general HP to 1000000 and boost to1000000 end everything that gives you power, and try it ;)
 
Yes it is ;) Its under construction, so its gonna be a tuned lada :twisted:
 
Niice! My grandmother had a Lada, you had to be a bodybuilder to turn the wheel!

Good car though, she never had any trouble with it.
 
Thanks 8) Well, there are some things to change, and thw wheel will be much lighter. I'v all ready done it, its fine now. I cant wait till my new motor is finished :twisted:
 
What engine will you fit in it?

Maybe you should make a new thread about your car...trying to keep this section LFS only :lol: ;)
 
:oops: Sorry :lol:

Last post, honest :lol:
1600 ccm lada engine, webers, etc :twisted:
