GPL - Car fire!

I dunno if this is an easter-egg or a "feature" but if i run into that first bale of hay at full speed(use the entire striaght to accelerate) and his the bale head on, this cheesy fire "engulfs" the car... it's weird.... it looks good in the replay though..... BTW - is there any way to adjust the car at all? Like suspension or gear ratios or something like other papy games

I crashed into a bale of hay and wound up having my front and back left wheel perched ontop of the hay, while my front and back right tires were resting on the ground. I was stuck there for a while, until finally hitting reverse for the ump***th time caused it get all four tires back on the ground. Not really realistic, but it looked cool. I find crashes made to the outside barrier (left of the track) to be quite unrealistic. When hitting full speed, I wind up "bouncing" off the fence and the car keeps on bouncing off the ground or anthing in it's way like an indian ***-ball. I hope this is only because it is a alpha demo. When I hit the fence at top speed, I expect the fence to break and my car to fly into the trees.

Yes it is cause it's the alpha. because Papy isn't done twekeing the ol 3D model yet.

How can you call the fire effects cheesy?!!!!!!! Those are the best flame/smoke/flame-sound effects I've ever seen on any computer program! You wouldn't happen to be smoking that Easter grass would you? ;-) Chris

So I think what you are trying to say is...."pass me that spleef cause I want another hit!" ;-)
