    Found a veeeery strange things with new Civetta.

    Immediately after the release of the update, I drove it through the ATT and the results were... disappointing? The best we managed to achieve is 1.54.427 (on the Race config) and smth around 2.05 (on stock versions).

    A little clarification - before I started making mods, I made some cars for a while in Automation Car Company Tycoon. Supercars too. And there, approximately the same result was achieved on hatchbacks with 350-380 hp under the hood.

    Today I checked how much downforce the Race version has. And the result is extremely strange.


    No wind.


    200km/h

    After that, I decided to check - "what if I remove the entire kit at all?". And the result on the track turned out better than with the body kit (1.53.859).


    Maybe I'm wrong somewhere, but for some reason it seems to me that the aerodynamics is broken (in case with this car).

    Any ideas about this?

    PS. Video with tests on ATT (link to youtube is not break any forum rules i hope).


    PPS. In archive configs what I use for this tests.

    Works fine here




    Driving a stripped shell doesnt really show anything. Aero properties are additive in BeamNG, so removing panels reduces drag, lift, and alos tons of weight, unfortunate yes, but the aero is balanced with the complete car.

    The race config's suspension is poorly tuned, don't use it
