A ReSkin of the Black&Gold, 70's - 80's F1 Lotus cars! The modifications made the car a bit slower, but can still run 500kmh+. The wings were moved and now they are where they should be with the addition of 2 more pairs, still, adjust as you wish!

Improved version (V3.0) here:

    @P7VDS Tags are similar - just to the right of the main image.

    Yeah, it's interesting car. But he needs more downforce in the front. And installation of vertical stabilizers(wings) in the rear wing struts.

    @LoonySoup I play on mobile. On here right beneath the picture there's the option 'edit tags'
    Never played on pc though.
    Maybe @DEN12345 will know. Tagging him too because he's a real car fanatic ^^

    @LoonySoup no problem, you have real talent so happy to help.
    Suspension probably will somewhat slow it down, but nothing more power or less drag can't compensate. Suspension also can aid in steering so it might make cornering easier and with that your overall lap time quicker!
    I made a simple pushrod like system you can try fitting if you like, just to test it

    @P7VDS I don't really know how the tag system works on this site, how do i tag you? And how do i add a Successor (the link on the "General Characteristics" list)?

    @P7VDS Thank you! Since the only track i use to test my cars is the Gold Prix where there is no terrain elevation changes on the track itself, i feared that a suspension would just slow down the car, but now i'll be moving to Motor Mirage and see if i can implement one.
    I had a odd feeling about the rear of the car and you are right, it is laking a diffuser, i'll try to implement one.
    And again, thanks for the feedback!

    Great work on the aerodynamics and looks! Drives pretty good!
    Maybe try a diffuser or suspension for a more stable rear, and tag me in your next car!
