I just figured the entire game's UI would look like this:
On a side note, way back at Cal Poly I spent a good month trying to create a super basic suspension simulation for use in the
VECS project. I got as far as a block with 4 spring equations on each corner that would oscillate indefinitely because my damping simulation didn't work. Then I started to realize I had zero understanding of shit like moment arms, and all the dynamic stuff that occurs when a car is rolling. That's when I switched my focus to a fractal landscape generation algorithm that created awesomely realistic highways, like this:
