Hi Bronie and all, I understand the whole collide thing, I made the engine didnt I?
If you make 2 circles of the same collision and overlap them they fly apart at fairly high speed
when you start the sim which is why I dont understand the low no load RPM of this setup?

that's because collisions in algodoo.phun have a certain max speed
above that speed it doesn't accelerate anymore

Cool thanks Bronie. I'd like to see my score. I think I could make another car with the same engine that would be much faster yet, I have an idea for an automatic transmision 
This is a cool contest I'd like to see more entrys!
New tuned up version:
Automatic transmision attempt:
Cmon guys how about a little competition here?

I think if you make a contest you should at least have the balls to judge it or call it finished 
More people might get involved if there was any chance of having their entry judged?
I enjoy friendly competition but if Niffirg1 cant be bothered to keep an eye on his
contest then why did he bother to make it in the first place?
Grumble Grumble

Why? Forums would be pretty dull if nobody ever posts anything.

posting on this topic keeps it alive, and keeps you remembered that you still need something to do for this topic

That's mostly because the vehicle's average density is just about 100 Kg/m^2, allowing it to gain a massive amount of momentum.
Gimmie money.

Yea, this one gets about 270 HP at the wheel, and that's through a very bad CVT, which is actually a centrifugal clutch.
Another entry:
S to start, it should be fully started before crossing the starting line, so it should be within the rules.

I don't see any limit for size/weight in rules. That means I can scale up my engine and go faster/get more power.
Dream of Algodoo as game development engine...
