What was the fastest car you ever built?

[Kibōchen]

Mine was nicknamed "Usain", capable of going up to 392 kph (243 mph)!
What about you?

I have revised my LSR car and could improve to 606.6 kmh or 377 mph. Engine is now a 8.2L Boxer 6, because more cylinders bring nothing new to the table.

Cars in the UE version don't need visible grilles/vents for cooling, they changed that a while back so that fixtures would be purely cosmetic. Cars now have sufficient cooling by default. (I too preferred the previous system but I will admit that this one gives me more visual freedom.)

It's cooled with ice, like all LSR cars usually are.

Well that's one way around the "cosmetic cooling" thing.

Just made a 10L V10 with 2,800hp that rockets a hypercar to 340mph.
Previous record was a 7.1L V8 putting out 2,100hp that got a mock Dodge Charger to 250mph

I am newbie, but my fastest car have 500km/h top speed and 1.5k hp

So far, my fastest car is a 325 mph sports car working off a 14.6L Naturally Aspirated V16. Can easily squeeze some extra top speed if I reduce the downforce and add on a turbo, but I'm proud of it regardless. Pretty controllable for a hypercar of its speed in Beam too.

Also made a 310 mph "40s coupe" which is downright hilarious, though I've since dropped its top speed to 304 mph to further the meme.

that speedometer is based on wheel speed, not on ground speed
in other words your wheels could be spinning faster than your car itself can move

[chasebh89]

well the game should impliment body speed rather than wheel speed.

It does, and it also has a setting for airspeed too, and cruise control, and loads of other stuff - it's under the UI options bit.

ehhh
most vehicles in real life nowadays have speedometers that use wheel/gear speed to function rather than true body speed. it's more realistic that way and BeamNG accurately reflects that

maybe I was wrong xD

390 mph 627 kmh

[chasebh89]

I think rpm plays a big factor in determining top speed almost more than raw power. I made a 3cyl that could only rev to 2,000rpm and it was limited to 91mph despite the engine being more than capable of going faster. I think a car that can rev to 12,000rpm will be faster than a car that can rev to 8,000 despite the 8k engine having more power.
