Just a heads up, the smoothing groups on your model seem to be broken judging from the pics, might wanna fix that

 

My first reaction was a big YYYYYESSSS!

The original front suspensions are a lot of fun

We need stronger tyres for the ludicrous model, they explode if you hit 250 Km/h. The engine is clearly capable of much higher speeds. Combining a bunch of mods I got a Covet capable of 620+ Km/h on a real map (not just the flat empty Grid), and I feel this Pigeon would be the perfect contender. Maybe some aerodynamic wings would be needed in place of the front and rear bumpers, and maybe a slower steering wheel. The Covet needs 3000 hp, 4wd and a large wing at the back. This would be so much more efficient, and a lot quieter. I know there's the Drag Pigeon, but this is so much more faithful to the original. And it's electric so it must be cool. Right? RIGHT? (joking)

As always, an excellent product from AdamB

 

Sorry, I honestly do not know how to fix it.
--- Post updated ---

Why thank you, I agree that I need to make better rear tires. (ones that don't explode so easily )
I would like to have a 3WD pigeon, but unfortunately due to the way that differentials work, It can't work. The front wheel end up fighting itself when you drive. A wing seems like a great idea though
Speaking of quieter, I have made a new engine sound that is a lot better than the one we have now

 

By any chance could this work with the 4 wheel pigeon mod?

 

Sorry, but it won't work. The 4 wheel pigeon uses completely seperate parts like this mod does.
And, why would I make a mod for a mod?

 

Because that's mod to the second power, and so must be awesomely awesome.

The only 3WD vehicles I know of are Challenger Terragators, basically monster Pigeons for farmers. They use hydrostatic drive as visible here: http://www.challenger-ag.com/EMEA/IT/products/applicators/2048.htm. Not fast, but they got 0 metre turning radius that way.

I didn't really explain myself, but what I meant is that the Covet needed those modifications because it's larger and heavier than the Pigeon. The PigElec could likely reach the same speed with RWD and half the power. It won't need as much downforce either, since less front section means less "will to become airborne". A wing will still be required to mantain contact with the ground as much as possible, especially over bumps, and it will look magnificent on the PigElec (hope you like the nickname).

The new engine sound is very welcome. I'm really curous about what you came up with

 

Next car?(barstow?)

 

Ooh maybe
Somebody already requested a moonhawk though.

 

Now Muscle cars are electric()

 

I feel that it would be uncool, like a 4 cylinder CVT Muscle car.
Muscle cars are supposed to have a roaring V8. Not a quiet electric motor

 

Right, now that you know to do a engine mesh, may you do a V6 turbo?(The mustang has one though)

 

also, the moonhawk could be a good electric car, because it is a normal road car. The barstow would not fit that as well

Did you credit the wheels that you took from @synsol's turbo pigeon mod after i told you where you could find the widened 6.5 wheels. Does he know that you are using content from his mod?

 

Oh, really? I thought that those wheels were an exact copy from the old game, just put into his mod. I'll change it immediately.

 

Oh, and another thing, Those wheels that I used did not say "beamng mod by synsol" like his other parts did

 

I noticed that the convertible version isn't working like it should, the pigeon spawns with a full roof.

 

Yes, I know. I'm trying to figure it out now
