Beta Drag Demon AWD Bastion 1.0

About this build
This setup started as a personal experiment to see how far the Bastion could be pushed in a drag-focused AWD configuration. It evolved into a fully functional and surprisingly consistent drag build.

- Meo’s Drag Parts mod (required for proper function) https://www.beamng.com/resources/meos-drag-parts-pack.10968/
- Meo's 454 LSX https://www.beamng.com/resources/meos-454-lsx.12845/

A purpose-built AWD drag machine disguised as a factory Bastion.
A fully engineered AWD Bruckell Bastion drag build designed for maximum launch stability and straight-line performance.

This setup focuses on putting power down efficiently, combining an all-wheel-drive drivetrain with drag-oriented suspension and weight distribution to deliver consistent, controlled acceleration.

While it retains a clean, factory-inspired appearance, beneath the surface it’s been transformed into a dedicated drag platform.

Key Features

• AWD drivetrain tuned for high-traction launches
• Drag suspension setup for stability under acceleration
• Wheelie bars for controlled weight transfer
• Lightweight, performance-focused configuration
• Clean, factory-inspired exterior with subtle custom accents

Driving Notes

• Best suited for straight-line runs and drag racing scenarios
• Performs strongest on prepared surfaces with good traction
• Throttle control is still important—power delivery is aggressive despite AWD grip
• Designed strictly for straight-line drag racing
• Not intended for cornering or road use
• Drag suspension and tire setup may cause instability or component failure during sharp turns
• Best used on drag strips or flat, straight surfaces

Installation
Drop the files into your mods folder and launch the game.

Feedback is always welcome—I’m continuing to refine the setup and improve performance over time.
