TGV12 | Sports Train from "Top Gear"

Description
(Recreation)
Designed by a man whose genius "generates gravity", the TGV12, aka Sports Train had one role to play. It was to race against the incredibly stiff competition of the Caravan Train operated by Captain Slow. The race was incredibly intense as the Sports Train had a very hard time keeping up with the Caravan Train, but at the end it just barely managed to scrape into first place.

SPECIFICATIONS

Top speed: 100-110 MPH
Length: (Including voxels) 14.25 Meters
Width: 2.75 Meters
Height: 3 Meters

FEATURES

-Seating for 6
-Detachable trailer
-Headlights, Brake lights, EOT light
-V12(ish) engine

Caravan Train: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2958912408

OPERATION

-To start, simply press the 'start engine button' and turn off the parking brake
-The throttle is in sticky mode, so you just need to throttle it up and it can just go by itself
-The gearbox has neutral, 1 reverse speed, and 3 forward speeds
-since modular engines are a nightmare to cool down (or maybe I'm just incompetent) there is a system in place that will automatically shut off the engine when it reaches 105 degrees, and will not turn back on until it goes under 100. It can be toggled off for when you have engine overheating off.

EXTRA NOTES

-This is NOT a 1:1 recreation. I only used two videos as a source and didn't look for any measurements.

For the airship, I didn't really have any direct inspiration from a single vessel, just took the basic steampunk concept of "Sailing ship hull tied to a balloon" and did my own spin on it

For future vessels, I have plenty of ideas but I don't want to say what they are so I don't disappoint anyone by saying my next project will be a certain ship and then never actually get to it (again)

I see what happened. The space bar for the brake isn't working but I turned off the brake from the switch you have on the left side of the driver seat. Also because I am half blind I was using the ws key for the throttle but not changing the gears. This car is super fast and really nice. What is your next project? Can't wait to see it. I tied your other steam creations and they are super cool and very detailed. Where did you get the blimp inspiration? I remember seeing that somewhere either a movie or a game.

did you turn the parking brake off?

I have a question. Can you test this vehicle for functionality? I put this on the track yesterday and wouldn't move. The long train worked perfectly so I am trying to figure out if I am missing a step on this one.

Tell me about it LOL. Thank you very much.

Ah, good ol' bugs

Never mind.. It's now working. I had to delete my save file because something was glitchy LOL. Awesome Top Gear Vehicles. Thank you.

I spawn both the white car train and the speed train on the tracks and it is almost like the wheels are sitting on a flat plain. Is there a specific part of the map that is should go to? I am using the base that generally pops up when you start a custom game.

It should just clip right onto the track when you spawn it in, no?

Very cool to resemble Top Gear. I love it but the only problem I have is how do you put these cars and trains on tracks? I know I am have fun with missions and experiencing many cool vehicles created by many talented creators. This and figuring out how to plot an auto pilot on space ships in space. Can anyone enlighten me on those two things?
