   Hi! :)
   
   If I remember correctly, it’s your first time building a track car, and not a sport car. So, if it’s not perfect, it’s understandable :)
   
   There are 2 major issues with your car:
   - The aero setting is weak, a race car should be able to handle a higher side acceleration at high speed than at low speed, but it’s the opposite way with your car. A little trick: you can hide a spoiler under other fixtures. Try to hide one spoiler on the front of the car, and 2 on the rear ;)
   - Your car needs to have a better front grip. The understeer is way too important for a race car, even at low speed. It’s quite hard to change of direction in a succession of corners, I was forced to use the handbrake in some situations on the Hirochi Raceway and on the West Coast small track.
   
   There is a last issue, but I’m pretty sure it’s caused by the lack of front grip. Your car will go in straight line as soon as you touch the brakes. Usually, with a race car, you use the brakes to send the weight of the car on the front wheels. It will increase the front grip, giving you the ability to enter the corner way faster, but you still are on the brake phase at the moment you enter the corner, so your car needs to be able to turn while braking. If I am not clear, you can look for ‘’progressive braking’’. With your car, it’s impossible to do this, making it way slower in corners.
   
   Other than that, the suspension tuning seems to be good! A bit soft maybe, but it’s ok. And the engine is pleasant to use :)
   That’s all!

      Actually, there are a total of 3 spoilers on the front already, and 2 on the rear. I know about the fixture-hiding trick. :)
      
      As for the understeer, I could make it more sensitive to it, but then it would be impossible to drive with a keyboard, since any slight key-press could send it swerving off-course. And I wanted to make a keyboard-driveable car, which necessitates certain compromises.
      
      Anyway, thx for the review! I guess it's a sports car more then a real track car. Fair enough lol
