Description

A brand new racing machine, the IP-104-GE is the new Formula One car designed by KSC according to the regulation imposed by the KGA (Kerbal Globale de l'Automobile) on the F1 2022 season. Some of its components have similarities to its older IP-102-A 2021 racer, though 80% of the car is a brand new design.

The front wing is less aggressive, mounted as one component to the rounded nose. The front tyres have aero-shrouds attacked to the inner side. The car’s floor has a more aggressive leading edge. The air intake was remodelled, with the rear wing was redesigned entirely, ditching the twin flap design favouring a single-piece plan.

It is, by all means, more advanced, takes corners better, and accelerates better at the lower portion of the powerband.

Builder’s note:

This F1 build is based on the FiA render of the final design, not based on each team’s finalized look. Some problems still carry over from 102.

The speed is still not fast enough and slightly slower at 64m/s or 230kms. It’s heavier and guzzles more electric charge, so you may want to turn off cheats to drive long runs. This time I did add a rearview mirror (two lamps), but those lamps, like the taillights, always offset their places after craft load. I can’t fix it, it’s a game issue.
