@RMark1 hey I wasn't expecting a comment 8 months later, but the turn section is about how realistic it will drive straight or handle going at extreme speeds. I will rate it bad if it spins out or can drive around at top speed. Hope this answers your question.
@Dalton02 didn't know that thnx
Top fuel means that they use nitromethane , which is a very volatile fuel which burns very hot @CALVIN232
Simple planes physics is a bit odd
may sound weird my question, but why the dragster in the image weights 22 tons?? a tank or a truck should weight 22 tons, but those dragster dont have more than 1 ton
Okay that's fine I guess
So you mean funny dragsters then yeah that's what we call them @plane918273645
@CALVIN232 top fuel dragsters are different to normal dragsters.top fuel dragsters look like what I have made and they don't look like a normal car but with big wheels Also I don't know how to upload pictures so just search them up
I might try, it will be hard, but I'll try.
WhY is it called top fuel? Does the fuel need to be at the top? Or as much as possible?
Ok sounds great
Just note that the racing is only for bonus upvotes
The example that I have done does the drag strip in 15.91 sec on the max ground speed record track
Ok
@Tully2001 why don't I have to give you points?
Thanks for upvoting
And life likeness to
Because I don't want INSANE SPEEDS so just work on the launching speed
Why is the top speed limited sir? Is that to make them extremely life like?
TURNS OUT THAT ONE OF THE WHEELS ARE NOT CONNECTED PLEASE ATTACH IT TO AN ENGINE FOR IT TO DRIVE ACT1
Also I have spread the word to many users just remember max amount of players is 30!
This example it will be a 8.5 if I was to score it!
