[:AT:] Max Wedge Version 1.84
You are looking at something new...or is it something old? When did crisp clean lines and a powerful rumbling motor become obsolete? A machine such as this evokes a certain primal instinct deep inside you. A need for the road. No excess bells and whistles. No unneeded electronic doodads to tell you where to go. This monster of the road is a precision machine designed to answer it's master's every wish. Once you take the wheel of the AT Wedge, you will understand. The car will become nothing more than a mechanical link between you and the road. Coupled with AT's well known reliability, this car delivers not only performance on the track, but performance during day to day activities. Your commute will never be the same. But all good things must come with a warning. If you respect the machine as it respects you, you will find a graceful beast, hungry for adventure. But should you disrespect it, you might find that it has sharp teeth as well.

Controlling the car
-TRANSMISSION
This car uses a realistic 4 speed manual transmission. Unlike most SL cars, the gears have ratios. Start off in first gear, or you'll have a hard time getting on your way. Keep an eye on the tachometer until you get the hang of listening to the engine. Practice will tell you when the best place to shift gears is. If you're about to turn around a corner, it can be helpful to downshift. Watch the revs though! Make sure the rpms are low enough to shift into a lower gear
Steering is realistic as well, and again, may take some practice to get used to. Not much though! You'll be slingin around the corners with the best of em!
Hold down both gear changing keys to put gear back to zero/neutral right away
Hold Down both steering keys to flip vehicle if upside down
Features
-Realistic Active Suspension
Guess what? This car has a working suspension! this means handling will be effected by the quality and surface of the road (or whatever it is you're driving on).
-Dynawheels support
The car has Dynawheels support, which enables different driving surfaces by describing or naming the driving surface prims to one of the following keywords
asphalt
concrete
metal
grate
dirt
sand
snow
ice
water
Each of these provide different driving experience and handling
You can put any of these into parcel description between two * to set the terrain's material (default: dirt) example: *snow*
Damage System
This car has a system for various components to get damaged and worn by use (or abuse)
Radiator damage:
Caused by overheating the engine, or running the engine on hot temperatures consistently
Heat generated by engine's RPM, higher it is, more heat there is
Engine Block damage:
Caused by over revving the car, or running the car on high RPMs consistently
Damaged engine block will reduce the power of the car, generate more heat, and consume more fuel
Severely damaged engine block will often stall
Seat Adjustment
Any seating position can be adjusted by chatting simple commands on channel 1
Like axis name after that a comma and the offset value
an example for lowering seat position by 0.05 meters
/1 z,-0.05
Takes a bit to get used to, but it is a very quick way of adjusting seat without clumsy dialogs.

- Realistic sounds
Excellent car. A little twitchy with the Max Wedge.
Very nice, good sounds that do decently with the RPM-To-Sound correlation, so you don't really need to watch the tach too much to figure out when to shift. Nice wear and damage system on the drivetrain that is fixed with a few moments of time, but it's still a nice touch.
Good stuff.
If the car has no demo, it is because the car is bad
- bad to cross sim,
- You leave the track for no apparent reason, it must be due to the physics of the vehicle, SL does not have the best roads
- Easy to dump and does not have a restore button
-slow and with over turn and under turn
-expensive
the car is so bad that it doesn't have a demo, it broke my rule, no demo you can't buy
