🚗 Car Physics — 3D Driving Simulation

A real-time 3D car physics simulation modelling engine torque, tyre friction, aerodynamic drag, and weight transfer. Every corner tests the balance between grip and momentum.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

The simulation models drivetrain torque, tyre slip using the Pacejka magic formula, aerodynamic drag, weight transfer under acceleration and braking, and suspension dynamics.

🎮 How to Use

Use arrow keys (or on-screen controls) to throttle, brake, and steer. Try sharp corners at high speed to experience understeer. Brake before a turn to shift weight forward and improve grip.

💡 Did You Know?

Formula 1 cars generate so much aerodynamic downforce that they could theoretically drive upside-down in a tunnel at speeds above ~130 km/h. The tyres would still have grip — but the g-forces would be unsurvivable.
