A single wheel car like my first one, but this one has an air-friction stabilizer instead. You can make it go up a wall at any angle, even 90 degrees.
You can also make it move at almost any speed, and it won't jitter around (unless you get too far away from the center of the simulation or whatever).

Just about the only thing that I can think of that this car doesn't do well, is jumping. You can't jump, or else the car will stop in the air and fall very slowly.

OH, one crucial piece of information for you. The air stabilizer bar collides with B, cuz it has to collide with something. You can make it collide with anything you want and it'll work ('cept for A). I just made it collide with B.

NEWFOUND INFORMATION: I figured out a little bit ago that if you turn air off, this car can still roll the way you tell it to. With air off, it's faster, and it can jump, but it's less powerful.
It can only make it up about 45 degrees.

How to Make an Air Stabilized Single Wheeled Car:

Make a circle, copy it with the hold-control-copy, scale it in a bit so it's thin, then turn it into a box. After that you copy the circle again, make it a bit bigger, and center hinge it to the smaller one. Fixate the box to the smaller circle, and make it not collide with the ground or the larger circle.

Go into the script menu of the box, and set the airfrictionmult to about 50,000. Then go into the hinges options and make it controlled with your arrow keys, make it as fast as you want, and make it +inf strength.

And that, my good sir, is how you make an air stabilized single wheel car.

OH, and if you want it to climb stuff, just make the tire's friction +inf.
