Hey @LosCules24SFA when is that Facebook group going to be made?
Why bother with the 5 turbo twin engine W50 piston arrangement 7 wheel drive convertible van when we can jump to the holy grail of MRs instead? A full on Formula car with headlights and adjustable suspensions, and no bigger than an elise! Its the world's first, mini road legal Formula Car that anyone can buy! (With some amazing front bumpers too!)

Pretty confident with this design

Discussed this 'project' with my friend and I've to admit, a V4 petrol engine in a small car is not a smart choise. A V-shaped engine is the most inefficient choise you/we could make, a boxer engine or a 4 inline (placed in width of the car) would make more sense, just as the allready 'popular' Wankel engine in this thread, less CC's, same performance.

GTP VGT Design Community
What's your Facebook name? @Brutaka
The Facebook group was created for communication purposesI don't understand why you have to move the discussions to Facebook when you're designing a car for GTP, a website with a forum board with this thread where you can discuss this?
That is why I said something yesterday, but I didn't want to be a debbie downer.View attachment 268856 View attachment 268856 By creating a poll to choose between each members posted design/sketch
Guys breaking news on the poll, apparently Hybrid have surpassed Non Hybrid by 2 two votes and now Combine/New Body type is about to surpass city car/kei car with only 3 and a half hours to go before closing!! And looks like it will be an 8 speed transmission
Vote 169 to 178 is oddly similar, no one sabotage the poll right?
But if we'll going to use it we suppose to get a permission from the patent holder right?Check out Aerocharger turbo's for 2st snowmobiles. Had me a bit unsure too, but it's here. Fuel injection would be a must too.
The V4 2stroke I imagine will be like two 500 2 stroke Motogp engines on the same crank.

Here's the same idea as I had for a vertical stabilser (rudder) to control oversteer. Doesn't need to be one moving rudder on the roof/tail it may be done with a flap on each rear quarter pushing air away when the rear is moving off line from the front (sliding into oversteer).
For the wheel design I would love to see a design, maybe turbo style, that car draw air from under the car reducing the air pressure or creating downforce. Venturi's work well at removing air from underneath too.
Nice car. What program did you used?
Like this one? lol.Yeah it can be anything as long as it's city car sized, personally I want to make a new kind of car
Let's make the cars power to weight ratio 1 : 1 if it's possible to maximise the car
Hover Vehicle MKI - GTPlanet XD ... requires 12 high powered electric powered rotors lol. And have a horse power of I dont know.... 100 Max.
But I mean; Its cool right? XD
