    Wendover was first previewed in early 2013, and now, 8 years later, it was released. We've waited for long but it was worth it, and I now have my new most favourite car in the game.

    It would be nice to have a 5 or 6 speed automatic gear box, some turbos for V6 (to have like 250 hp) and a 6 speed sport manual gear box (not a race one).

    Hope they make a 15 inch version of the Bruckell MeshSport wheels. I think they would fit quite well.
    Has to be two tone like the Soliad Bragenham wheels, though!

    Also a white version of the Soliad Tornado wheels

    Found a safety issue with the Wendover, the headlights are pointed up. It lights up tree tops real nice but the road is still completely dark.

    To be able to see the road? Believe it or not, cars have had lights pointed at the road for damn near a century.
    I'm genuinely completely flabbergasted, puzzled, confused, and baffled as to why "It's an 80's car" is a valid response to light being pointed upwards. Please explain your reasoning, because it makes zero sense.
    Just for comparison, here's a different car.

    Being able to light up the trees is very safe, who knows what's up there?

    Okay then, let's first talk about why this argument doesn't work.
    1. A lift kit doesn't point lights at the sky. At best it make the lights a few inches higher.
    2. A rally car kind of needs to see the road by necessity.
    3. The base car is the same issue.
    The only other car with a similar issue is the bruckell legran. The headlights in general are all over the place in this game, a lot of the brights are more narrow than the low, with the van being brighter on low than high. A lot are way too dim to be even remotely useful, and most cars have the driver side light brighter than the passenger, which is opposite reality.

    I haven't that issue. Lighting out of perfection but not so strong as in your pictures.

    Anyway, who's matter when all vehicle's current lights are too weird ones?

    You're further away from the wall so it will be dimmer in your picture.
    They should all be fixed realistically. A bunch of cars have headlights so ineffective that night driving is almost impossible, but they at least light up the road, if only slightly.
    It's not, it's just this and the LeGran. Headlights in this are pretty limited conical spotlights, and most of the cars in the same position I pictured are about even split between the road and the wall, but this is pointed very upwards.
    What is an issue is the generally crap headlights, particularly on the older models. That mod seems to fix that and might also reposition the lights as well.

    I wonder if we would get a scenario with the FATT, maybe one where you have to drive on a ramp into a moving truck.

    I feel like there is enough potential content that the FATT could get an entire campaign.

    I did make a turbine sound for FATT, based on KITT, as it happens but of course to use it the car would have needed to be using a turbine engine ;)

    It was fun to do.The scanner sound was made from scratch as well, just to avoid any potential copyright issues (I am a bit of a Knight Rider fanboy!... perhaps more than a bit!)
