    Umm, why?

    I've deemed the old front ugly and after I am done with the new one I don't see why anyone would want the old one that looks like it has a 1980s mucsle car grill..and the world's worst alpha headlights

    Not to mention the questionable front damage.


    OFF TOPIC

    Sometimes loving what you do sucks. You lay down to sleep and every single time you do you think of things you want to do when you get up 9 times out of 10 you just want to get up right away and do them ten minutes later.

    to make time go fast I play games and watch youtube.
    I'm mentally disabled too. that'll explain why I'm always late

    Umm gee don't need to completely explode hold back a bit there.

    Also it's a concept in alpha so wait and see the final result when I improve it in the next few days

    Change of plans I am going to make something similar but the front will be lowered down more so the headlights are lower and blend them in with the tip of the front the whole thing is getting a remodel and it will get a different intake.

    Honestly, I preferred the old grille better, but if you want to keep the new fascia ( totally up to you) then here is some improvements that I suggest

    I am completely changing my plan like I said not because people don't like it. The design doesn't fit the time period, not a single group c car ever had awkward intakes like that out of over 20 cars I looked at none... had that.

    Hahahaha I'm not trying to reassemble the 787B as much as possible.
    I have different plans for the front.

    [Those lights would be basically, yet another reference]

    All it's missing with that front end is the Pontiac logo, lol. You even got the honeycomb grille?

    lol

    So after hours of remodeling I've got something a bit more Group C worthy.



    I know the air intake is too small, I'll get on that soon, I will also tweak the hood.






    Chassis also tweaked.

    now that's looking awesome, the bonnet just needs a little more curvature so it follows the guards a bit closer.

    Improved mesh. [Intake is taller than a goldfish now]

    Rewrote entire jbeam for front end lightened by 7.91kg, quarterpanals fall apart from front end in high-speed collisions.


    Increased suspension damper/spring mount node weight to obtain more stable suspension components.

    Current weight
    1100kg

    Drastically Increased PSI in tires.

    Plans to have a second variant of suspension.

    One will be "Track Suspension" and the other will have a different name and all you'll do is simply change the suspension parent part and it will switch to the second config.

    The second config will default to parts designed for roads with minor-moderate imperfections [in other words it will be good for East Coast, just don't expect 20mph+ over jungle rock island pot holes.

    It will be a slight bit higher but not by much to allow for a long travel suspension.
