    Hello everyone! I found a bug. On strong bumps, the suspension works to the limit and after that the clearance becomes less. The problem is only on race rear coilovers. I have tested this on other coilovers and this does not happen to them.

    In the screenshot, you can see that the clearance has decreased by about a centimeter. On the other configuration of the vehicle, I increased the ground clearance by 2 centimeters. There was a noticeable gap between the wheel and the wheel arch. But after the test, the gap disappeared completely.
    You would think that the suspension would be damaged by dropping from a great height, but it wasn't. I checked on other configurations.
    Sorry, I forgot to specify the version of the game - 0.27.1

    I doubt this is fixable, this suspension is already at the limit of what this game can simulate

    There is no such problem on a rally coilovers, I don't think it's much different from a race coilovers.

    This also happens from the large downforce with the GTRX spoiler.

    They are drastically different in the Scintilla. Yes in other cars rally coilovers are a simple modification of race ones, but here they are purpose built.

    Either way, it looks like with some compression force, the rebound does not return the suspension back to the way it was. In my opinion, it doesn't look like something that can't be repaired. But, it can get in the way a lot. For example, with a lot of downforce, the car can start to hit the bottom of the road. hope this can be fixed and the developers will fix it someday.

    Thank you for your report!

    This issue will be fixed in the next release.

    Unfortunately, I can't provide any information about possible date of the fix.
