Wow, nice. It's interesting to see how consistent the acceleration is. Thank you. Yeah, it doesn't really compare to a real life dragster - the top speed doesn't either ;) You can build transmissions, which have much higher acceleration in lower gears. But to get to super sonic, you'd then also need much more gears. In the end, the additional weight and shifting time makes it reach the target speed slower. On MK1, I've tried adding another gear between the first and second planetary gears. You'd think the additional acceleration would make it faster, but it was like 15 seconds slower to the sound barrier! A more consistent acceleration throughout fewer gears appears to work best for this build. 🙌🙏

I calculated 2.55G forces between 10.45 - 11.41s and speed 201 - 225km/h
not quite dragster level but pretty good!

@@TheRealCatBurger23 Yea, it's entirely different reaching supersonic speeds on wheels without jet engines!
@@Kaelygon yeah absolutely. Jet engines would be a welcome addition to this game though :D

I have a created a dragster that have like 1100kmh top speed but it does 0 to 1000kmh like under a second
@@aresgod2009 Yes, you can do that with propellers.
