Spent all evening trying to perfect a new kind of suspension on ChaDonSom`s amazing offroad course.
Uses very light wheels to act as one-piece shock absorbers rather than complicated systems of springs,exploiting the relative weakness of very low-density objects and any soft connections attached to them.
The advantages I`ve found in balloon suspension are that it is easy to make and that it can`t break or malfunction.
The disadvantages I`ve found are poor damping and the fact that the body of the vehicle hits the ground when the suspension bottoms out.
This particular vehicle is meant to behave very much like something with treads and a complicated suspension system, but no sticking or loosening at high speeds.

I hinted at it once, and you can see that this is a response, but I feel the need to say once again that this is my vehicle but NOT MY TRACK.
Oh! I also forgot to tell you the controls! I need to go to bed. Arrow keys to move, down brakes, up mirrors. A and D control the "tail" in case you flip
very good, i like it!
i saw it before on a contest - did you do that one too?
thanks for credit!:lol: :D :) :D :lol:
i made a lightning shootind car you should realy see it
