It's neat but I was a little disappointed how slow it is, even with all the normal driveline stuff removed.

Yeah I've noticed that, while I like how the timing system mostly works now and the new timeslip UI app, I'm not a big fan of the split pro/sportsman tree, it seems that would sort of break things for people running beammp.

With 2000 hp exactly? I don't know if I have a car that's exactly 2000, but I would guess given its by far the lightest, your correct, it would be the Scintilla hands down. Of the rest of the cars, I think only the Moonhawk and Bastion can make that much power and the Moonhawk is the lighter of those two so its already and would still be quicker I think. That would be without involving mods however.

Happy Halloween :)

lol

Thanks

Interesting, I'll check that out thanks.

I think they're new, you can find them the in game UI apps, it seems to bug out if you start spawning objects in, but otherwise works great.

Lol did the moonhawk survive it? I'll have to check them out.

@@shiftsandgiggles yes it hits the ground lightly specially when you adjust how strong the chute drags

Hi, the tree in Bounty is somewhat customizable so you are able to test or race on .400 & .500 Pro or Sportsman trees. I use a logitech G29 and it works fine, pedals included. I'm not aware of a list anywhere, there is a Discord channel for bug reporting and a somewhat active community. I've read some Moza owners were having issues, not sure if it was resolved or not, I don't know about any other types.

It has been months since I've tried to play, but I could not get anything bound in my simagic base/wheel

@@YeahImAnthony I was able to get my simcube2 wheel and Heusinkveld pedals to work but I bought this for the sole purpose of practicing my launch and reaction times in the sportsman class. I haven't been able to make that work at all.

Not quite, it's using MEO's Funny Car Engine and MEO's Drag Parts

Possibly down the road, I've been busy with other games while waiting for some much needed and awaited updates for Bounty. If that comes through than maybe I'll see what I can do, as of now at least, I've yet to even fire one up though.

Thanks, I did make a series of videos that went step by step through the builds leading up to this one, here's the original Moonhawk episode.. th-cam.com/video/UPeY5HDLCCY/w-d-xo.html

@@shiftsandgiggles Ah, thank you so much for the link!

Yes, I always enjoy playing with them

lol I did try, it's not so easy with a few of the cars though 😁

@@shiftsandgiggles Is it because it has too much power or torque?

@@SpectBluewolf The front tires don't grip enough to hold the cars. A few of them are easier than others though.

Thank you 😁

Thanks, I do use the distance timer the repository a fair bit when testing and running where there are no boards, but for video purposes, having a working tree and scoreboards looks better I think.

If you haven't already, have a look at this video, it's based off of a more recent build and might be more helpful. th-cam.com/video/E9vGU_EdvUs/w-d-xo.html I recommend just using the converter and transbrake option and launch off a button. You can still set the transmission to shift manually, but getting the clutch to operate properly is a pain. As for tuning, every car and bike uses converter settings rather than clutch weights and stuff anyway regardless what you choose. The last time I tried it, my clutch did work once assigned (Logitech G29) but if you plan to use that you'll need a way to trigger the cars timing system at launch, either with a separate button press or by combining it with the clutch pedal itself.

You can find the setup for the Scintilla in the Fastest Drag Car European video from a few months back, I haven't changed anything with it yet since then.

Hi, thanks, I hope they're helpful. You can find the entire build and setup for the Scintilla in this video, th-cam.com/video/rRs74dZ1NVw/w-d-xo.html nothing's changed in the setup since then. I will be coming back to it soon. If I ever figure out a good way to post configs I'll consider that soon maybe as well.

new record 8.591. thanks for the tips :)

Nice!

Sorry, I missed this comment, I think when you swap engines, it may automatically choose a default transmission, if you select the engine first than the transmission, it should work ok.

Thanks, I'm working on it 😁

@@shiftsandgiggles use 200 pis and 295KW NOS you'll be able to make around 1500hp

Cool, I did not know that. They're great engines, the 2.5L seems as close to bullet proof as you get without running a modded indestructable block.

Interesting idea, I'll play around with those and see how it goes

Your welcome, there's been a lot of changes and additions to the game in the past year or so, I'm excited to go back through everything as well 😁

I'm working on it lol

Thank you very much, I appreciate that. You summed this all up pretty well 😄

Wow, Nice job! I got work to do 😁

Thank you, enjoy 😁

I've found the 4 speed automatic drag transmission to the best choice for the cars that it's available for so far. I don't think I've really tried the 'standard' automatics in the cars that don't if there was a manual option.

@@shiftsandgiggles They're usually much faster than the manual too.

​@@shiftsandgigglesonly if the torque converter doesn't suck and it may be because i don't understand the difference between stall because they seem indifferent

@@collinkaufman2316 As far as the 'stock' converters go, you'll see most of the difference on the starting line on the transbrake.The low stall converters will keep the rpm from building as much. Which one I use depends on the car and what works with the particular tuneup. When it comes to the higher horsepower modded cars, an adjustable converter is where much of the performance adjustablity is using the torque multipliers.

lol I'm not sure, I might 😁 I've never noticed, I usually play on maps in the daylight. I'll have to check that

Yes, called 'Tourque Curve'

Ah, ok thank you

The Scintilla doesn't really need launch control on the prepped strip. Launch control essentially cuts power to maintain grip, even with dumping the clutch at full rpm, I had to fit smaller rear slicks to prevent it from doing giant wheelies so grip is not an issue. I am working through each of the cars doing some retuning though, so I will have a look at the other transmissions choices when I get back to the Scintilla.

I'm aware, it's heavier than the car I used for this so not as quick. I do have a new Piccolina video that I am working on, I will feature the stretch version in that.

There's an in gam UI app that I turn on to monitor power levels as well as weight.

@@shiftsandgiggles what is it called, I would like to use it

@@MatthewHarmon-qt8sq it's simply called 'Torque curve' and to figure out the weight, 'weight distribution' you just gotta add the 4 corner weights to get a total.

@@shiftsandgiggles thank you

There is a series here on the channel that features modded versions of a lot of these cars. th-cam.com/video/F_JJqnTajvg/w-d-xo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB I'll be revisiting them again soon.

Your in luck, I've done a whole series using mods as well. I'll revisit these cars again down the road. th-cam.com/video/F_JJqnTajvg/w-d-xo.html

Possibly, it really depends if there's any more coming improvements to the game. I've been finding it difficult to remain enthusiastic about playing it lately, let alone doing anything that may be considered 'promotion' of an unfinished mostly abandoned product.

It impresses me every time I play 😁

Short answer is I don't know. I assumed it was just a regular part, it seems to be in the inventory whether I have mods activated or not. Maybe its cab type specific or something.

You swap to the regular seats then through that you can switch them.

@@spoolysnail32 Ok, noted thanks

Yes, the issue there is the nitrous, the more RPM's the engine is running the more nitrous it will accept without blowing up.

I went with the lightest rims that worked with the least amount of tire I felt was needed. Any larger on most of the cars and they do wheelie too much. Some are on the brink of that as they are now still.
