    I really hope no one has an issue with it, but I'm binning the automatic gearbox, there is so little power that the gearbox can't launch correctly. It's one of the many reasons that the car couldn't reach 30mph.

    Manual gearbox is nice (probably needs 3 gears instead of 4) but the rear suspension is really weak right now (pickup included)

    Good news on that!
    I finally made the rear suspension unable to flip and break in the way it does in the latest release, I'm just holding off on Alpha 6 because of other fixes I would like to implement.

    You should try to fix a lot of the problems before making extra parts, its going to make it awfully hard to fix everything if you put everything in wrong at first.
    Thats if you havent already fixed stuff since the beta

    What problems are you referencing?
    If you mean suspension, doors, seats, interior and drivetrain, they are actually finished, I have mentioned that previously. I just didn't upload them to the first page as I wanted to make sure that no-one broke their game by trying to use the pickup, van, convertable or anything before they were stable.

    If you meant "Stuff" as in something I haven't already mentioned please say so as I will be grateful to fix it.

    I mean in the jbeam, in the one beta version I have, it drives like an suv that weighs 10000 lbs, with no shocks. Its also crashes like jello.

    The suspension issue, fixed
    The diving like an suv bit isn't as easy due to the very non-aerodynamic design, but the newer version is lighter so that will lessen in the next patch.
    Crashing like jello just happens to be what I am working on now, alongside stiffening interior parts.

    The Cuatro Buggy is finished, mostly.
    This is a fix in the next update.

    speaking of the next update, I hope to have it released next week. I only have a few miscellaneous tweaks to make.

    Alpha 6 is now live. Changes:
    All body variations are available in parts selection
    The rear suspension is not ded, finally
    Exhaust added (lots of smoke.)

    Problems:
    The car is double the weight it should. Could very well be stopping it's 40bhp from getting it to 60mph.
    The gearbox needs remaking. The version of the car this is based off of had the limited production 5-speed gearbox, the fifth one being overdrive.
    I'm going to add that and remake the 4-speed.

    Yes, in the old version I made configs, but fixing the mod is harder with config so I removed them, they will come back in the full release*

    * "Full release" has some changes but I will discuss that at a different time
