Description
Various multi-link suspension Vehicles, all mimicking real world designs....but in a Scrap Mechanic way.
Some also Piston engine powered
Focusing on different driving styles within Scrap Mechanic game world
These multi-link suspension designs don't cause your vehicle to suddenly roll over, or are affected by the suspension glitch (like some of my early designs). I call them "No Torque" suspension.
I try to keep my builds with optimal bearings and suspension parts, and as a result, they have great FPS....

Real world Inspired vehicles and some just for fun. some may challenge your PC performance, but if the design doesn't get 150 FPS or more on my PC...you won't find it in this collection.
*most are 250-300 fps
