Released DSC Bora 3.1

Capable open-wheeler, if you've got the displacement downstairs to match it.

    Sam, I noticed in the OP you said the suspension isn't fully accurate, I know this means further tuning but does this mean the suspension will also be able to detach at some point?

    I wondered why an open wheel racecar has wheels that didn't self-collide. I enabled it, thinking it would help with the suspension inversion. I was greeted by demon wheels that eat the car if they invert. After that, I decided to make a crude suspension detachment system, by setting the attach point beams to have a strength lower than FLT_MAX. While the end result was incredibly derpy (in part due to floating mounting points because one or two body connection beams didn't break and in part due to my complete inability to have any clue at all what's going on with flexbodies, the biggest reason I don't make mods) I noticed that the wheels didn't invert any more. Instead, the suspension would snap off. combined with making the wheels self-collide, I noticed barely any mesh clipping after that. Also, good luck with the job hunt!

    This is a really good car, Drowsy. This thing destroys Corkscrew Mountain like a beast.

    Just now got to test it. Awesome creation as always! You really downplayed it in the OP, but it's more functional than the lotus 49.

    Bent the back wheel in while riding the edge of NLabs... Put it in reverse and fixed it... kinda. :rolleyes:

    Awesome car, wondering how you did the framework though. nothing but nodes? impressive.

    Was fun swapping the engines around, tried a yamaha vtwin (only 122bhp but rev's like a champ) and a 220 bhp straight 6 turbo diesel 4L (because why not)

    Only problems i ever had with the car was some strange shaking going on with the front suspension.

    After that Lotus got taken down, this is the only one of its kind. About the car itself: It's awesome!:D

    Slight bug report. but it appears the body doesnt contact the floor of the level?

    (i lowered the Bora, trying to get rid of the shaky suspension and saw the floor through the bottom of the drivers chair)
