@DarkMark1 Hahha Yes, i tired to go off some reference photos, but i definitely don't understand enough of mechanics to make it entirely accurate. Glad you went through inspecting in, looking at it from more technical angle. Thanks!
The steering linkage is so funny. Turning the steering wheel would make both front wheels point inwards out outwards. That and the pencil thin driveshaft would make it real interesting to drive. I know, I know, its not meant to be mechanically accurate. Its kinda inspiring actually.
@jeandiz excuse me but if this is "Vintage" you would want another seat for the mechanic. back then the mechanic rode along to repair the car, provide counter weight to counter a skid so it can't roll over, and just generally keep watch over the car. The advent of a one-seater race car only appeared in the late 50's so i just want to correct you on this important part of racing history.
@jeandiz Thank you very much for the recommendation. Although I tried to use Blender, I ended up using the three.js editor which can be found online here: threejs.org/editor/
Hi all. I love this car and want to add it to a three.js scene. How can I get its dimensions though? I will need the radius of its wheels, the axle width, the distance between front and back wheel, etc

@andriisedykh Hahaha wow, I checked and it's actually there, at the beginning. That's cool! Thanks for letting me know :D
Oh, I met this same model in the game "Chained together"
That Amazing
Very good car, thank you ;)
Excellent
super super cool
What engine does this car use?
@Occasionally_Human Hey! I think the base colour map should have alpha transparency.
Hey, the transparency maps are missing from the downloads I think. I they aren't, please let me know the file name

@jeandiz here is a link to my demo project that uses your car: threejs-car-physics-demo.vercel.app/
The code for the project can be found here: github.com/cconsta1/threejs_car_demo
Please let me know if I cited your work correctly :)
@7681481567 Thanks very much!
looks just like it!
very nice work with the dust cloud blasting from the other car

@valentinos.pafos Welcome! Glad that you found the way

@jeandiz Thank you very much for the recommendation. Although I tried to use Blender, I ended up using the three.js editor which can be found online here: threejs.org/editor/
@valentinos.pafos You could try importing it to the Blender. It has a build in measuring tool that allows you to check distance between given points.

@alanallday79 Thanks! :D
