    I have had this sitting on my disk quite a while now, it is unfinished, needs quite bit some work, but I guess someone can have some fun with it.

    Basically it is just simple engine swap from Moonhawk to Miramar.

    Kinda would like to have Mirahawk logo to replace Miramar logo, but lacking skill of doing that.

    It does have two configs, both are nearly impossible to drive without FFB steering wheel and even with steering wheel you can't apply much throttle or have AI to drive them.

    Poorly gripping tires are there on purpose, but of course you can pick something grippier for it, pretty much no grip whatever tires you put on it.
    It does use Miramar engine mounts and all engine shaking is intended, idea kinda is that someone slapped biggest engine that would fit to poor Miramar on his garage, parody of those garage installed turbo setups without any work on brakes etc.

    Should be compatible with Moonhawk and Miramar parts, what I attempted to do is to make whole Moonhawk powerline to be possible to be used with Miramar, sadly it looks like that time/motivation etc. is running out.



    I think concept is quite ok, so sharing if someone wishes to continue on this.

    Known issues
    :
    Driveshaft rotation issues
    Cut hood needs coltris to be commented out
    Some exhaust beam issues
    Battery needs to be moved to trunk
    Exhaust manifolds need more work
    General polishing of bits and pieces and things in engine bay.
    Probably something I don't remember or have not spotted
    Thumbnails and all that are not done
