    Okay so....I made the racing 200bx....insane. 2K RPM Idle. I gave that little 2.0L Inline 4 over 1200lb-ft of torque naturally aspirated. A 20,000 RPM redline, and gave the tires F1 levels of grip. I also recently decided "Hmm, let me add a turbo just because", so I changed the Stage 2 turbo to give 90psi of pressure. But the manual transmission, or rather the clutch is stopping the car from setting off. I go into first gear, very very gently apply the throttle, and BOOM, the rear driveshaft just breaks, and so does the truck latch and rear window.

    Does anyone know why the clutch is kicking like that?

    BeamNG is a realistic car simulator. If you put 2000 HP and F1 tires on a cheap sports car, the torque will literally destroy the chassis. Use tires with less grip and an automatic transmission maybe, but the 200bx isn't strong enough for that kind of power.

    I don't think I was particularly clear, the 1200lb-ft is only at 18k through 20k, at idle (2000rpm) it only has about 200 to 300 lb-ft, at full throttle, I'm only talking applying about 10% or so throttle. Just trying to gently set off, and clutch kicks a little too hard, causing the trunk and such to just break.

    Why are you idling at 2000 rpm? It's an I4, not a jet engine.

    2000 RPM is a pretty high idle. Are you using auto-clutch? if so it might not like such a high idle, try increasing the "clutchLaunchStartRPM" and "clutchLaunchTargetRPM" to smooth it out some.

    Fun stuff: Believe or not, you can brake a driveshaft with BeamNG-official parts only.

    If it revs 20 000rpm, it is likely it idles at least 2000rpm.

    Is there any chance to post the torque curve of this car because your asking for the engine to overcome a lot of inertia in resistance to movement in the drive system
