    There is a physics update coming in a few weeks, for the Renault (and also for the Nardi Bisiluro).
    We reworked the rear suspensions and tyres data. It will be easier to throw it in the turns and will suffer less from terminal understeer.

    In the 1970s someone took a gas-turbine-powered car to La Man's 24-hour race - when they had a race of champions/historic race someone raced it again - one big issue they found was it was a sitting duck when the yellow flags came out and then went to green - it took them half a lap or even more to get up to speed again

    (pronounciation guide : hay-twahl fee-lante)
    First time I see it in any simulation, always loved this car. By the way, the gas turbine in it (Turbomeca Turmo) was also used in the Puma helicopter, then in the TGV001 train prototype (before the TGV went electric), as well as several turbotrains that went into service.

Most of the race planes you think of - pylon racers and the Red Bull aerobatic time trial thingy I don't know whether or not they do anymore - use piston engines, while there IS a pure jet (no propeller) class in what was once the Reno Air Races. But, yes, you can throw either a plane or (at least) a Hydroplane-type race boat into a corner at full - or at least constant - power and never lift, given the way the courses and vehicles are designed.
