The picture begs the question....what the heck did you hit in the middle of the street to cause you to flip?

Ah yes, that's Jafo's infamous Kristian Klien impersonation there.

They go faster with the tires in contact with the pavement!

I enjoyed the demo but found the steering a little tough with a PS2 type controller. Maybe if I had a steering wheel I'd have made the investment. Nice sim though.

Lantec...it's a MUST to use a steering wheel [and pedals]....the vehicle physics/dynamics is pretty accurate....and 365kph down Conrod straight at Bathurst is 'a bit of a handfull', to say the least.

Or a 1970's Ford Escort...no aerodynamics...at 120mph along Gardner Straight [Phillip Island]....'floating' all over the place...no stability....EEK is the word....

I never was good with the pedals/steering wheel. Im better off with a controller (PS2/X-Box)

OK...I tweaked the rev limit of the F1 up to 19000rpm....and managed 312kph flat-chat down the Mulsanne.

If I can find how to hack the config to get a longer diff I may yet get the thing airborne over the bump.

As it is it feels like a jarred neck as the nose lifts and hits the deck again....

Driving a Mercedes may help your "lift off"

I mentioned to my twelve year old how nice it would be to get a new controller for my birthday in September. I know better than to ask the wife for anything remotely connected to the computer, but if he asks for it, chances are good I might see it.

Lantec...go for a wheel with 'paddles', ie gear shift tabs on the wheel a-la F1....separate gearshifts are for Dinosaurs and Indycar...
