    I would really like to see a parachute option added to the vehicles. I think that could be very cool!

    That too, but I was thinking more about normal parachutes, that you can trigger while falling so (if you do it right) the vehicle don't take damage and when you land you can just drive like nothing ever happend:D. But to do that it should be a way to reset only the parachute...

    I would really enjoy a sixties-style gasser build on the Burnside Special. Gassers are emblematic of drag-racing of that time, sometimes being capable of running at 125mph and dropping into ten-second quarter mile times, despite running on only gasoline and being assembled mostly from whatever parts were readily available to the builder.

    The proposed "gasser" configuration would share its rear suspension and most* of its body with the current "drag" configuration, but would be differentiated by a dead beam front axle, which would be kept far enough away from the body that the exhaust can exit in the space between the fender and the front wheels. Interestingly, there seem to be some opinions online that the entire front suspension and steering gear of the typical sixties gasser tended to be taken from junked pickup trucks of the same make and era of the car they would be put on.**

    That custom exhaust would be connected to an engine equipped with mechanical fuel injectors, or perhaps a Roots-type Supercharger lifted from a salvaged heavy-duty two-stroke diesel engine.

    If all that wasn't enough to separate the gasser from the dragster, some scallops on the roof might do the trick:

    *The hood would be removed completely for the "Gasser" configuration, but it may be necessary to make the interior door panels removable as well.
    **This would allow the front suspension to be re-used in the event that the developers decide to create a mid-fifties Gavril pickup

    All tires to all wheels (if proper dimensions)? Why don't we have this yet?

    For example, now we have 15x7 steel wheel with:


    195/60R15 Sport
    195/60R15 Standard
    195/65R15 Sport
    195/65R15 Standard


    And GP Standard 15x7 wheel with:

    185/80R15 Standard Whitewall
    195/65R15 Sport
    205/75R15 Standard
    225/75R15 Standard
    28x8.50R15 Off-Road


    Both should have same tire options.

    Same goes for hubcaps, for example:

    15x7 steel wheel have:

    CarPlus A11
    CarPlus C55
    CarPlus CS11
    Hirochi Splitter
    Ibishu Blade
    Ibishu Deep Dish
    Ibishu Straked


    15x8 steel wheel have:

    Center caps

    Both rims should have same hubcap options.

    Will we have these later? Is it hard to mod it to be like this now?
