Power, speed... the momentum had been building towards a crescendo as the two German funded makes, Auto Union and Mercedes Benz competed to build faster and faster racecars... With the imminent conclusion of the Libre Grand Prix rules, only a few races remained for Mercedes to explore the true limits of speed. Those limits were reached during the 1937 AVUS Grand Prix when the mighty silver streamliners were revealed for Mercedes and Auto Union. During the race they slipstreamed and battled each other at 380kmh (236mph), in the end the Mercedes W25 Streamliner of Herman Lang would reign victorious...1937 Mercedes W25 Streamliner (beta 0.9):1. Finished sounds.2. Accurate paint schemes and drivers (+1 bonus scheme).3. The physics are close to finished.There is a second version in development with wheel covers and a tiny bit faster top end speed with the risk of front wheel lift.ADDITIONAL LINKS:1. 1930s AVUS Circuit: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kiNs-9b2E7eQDC7oM1AfziRw3WGRv4oR/view2. 1937 Auto Union Type C Streamliner: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wbEsEZ4_VisIJimxa0pT78BPpu44JhiX/view

I have been having a play with this car (and closed bodywork version) and unfortunately the Ai seems to be incapable of handling it. I have tried it at Avus (37 version) and it weaves down the straights as if the Ai can't harness the power, plus going into the hairpin at the end of the track (opposite to the wall of death end) it goes in like a torpedo that even some AI hints files can't stop. Ant tips for taming this beast for Ai use? At the moment I can't use it in races apart from if I am driving it, which is a shame.

I think it's way too big

Driving this thing on the wheel requires sooooo much skill. This is truly how it feels to drive something so unbelievably powerful while also lacking almost all downforce. I give Herman Lang and other streamliner drivers of this time mad, mad respect for driving these powerful beasts.

Mad car. It’s very difficult to control but a guess it’s all correct. Didn’t realise it was so big

Your attention to detail is fantastic. I’m a great fan of all historic race cars. Keep up the great work.
