    This one will sure to be a blast to drive thanks to its old-school Beam Suspension and our new bypass shocks technology! ;)



    This chassis was inspired by a unique class of desert cars based on the original baja buggy suspensions from the 1960s.

    Class 5 race cars stay true to the original suspension design with modern engines and shock technology. This combination of limited suspension performance and speed produces a unique driving experience that demands the highest level of skill and knowledge of desert terrain. This vehicle especially showcases the flexibility of BeamNG suspension technology, and how it can function at all levels of off-road performance.

    This thing is absolutely insane, however, either I'm driving it too hard, or the front wheels break off way too easily. Or both even, I don't know. Other than that, I love the car, and it's so much more fun to drive than the average Piccolina.

    you need to make sure you land fairly straight-on, which is easier said than done, I've found I love chucking the limited class autobuggy around the trails on JRI, it gallivants over the rocks and mud so easily.

    Only thing I wish it had is a front fascia panel akin to some 80s baja bugs, to surround the headlights.

    Like you said, it's much easier said than done. It's hard to get that thing to land straight, and sometimes the wheel breaks off when I take a sharp corner. Anyways, the only way I can play is through GeForce NOW, and that is constantly hitting me with the unresponsive UI process crash, and then I have to wait an hour or so on an 800 person queue line.

    This is so fun! I love using the retro one in Ghost's Desert.
