that looks like youve got the COM too low, thats the only time i ever get that problem. Do you have the body 0,0,0 and adjust the wheels to fit or do you just move the body?

I raised the offset of the body and moved the wheels so it fits...after i moved the wheels for the last time,that camera bug occured.

Raise the COM. But remember that, to raise COM, you have to make the params +tive.

put the body to 0,0,0, then adjust the wheels to the right place. then put the middel COM to the middle number of the wheels but negative if the wheel number is positve and positive if the wheels are negative

edit: it also makes the hull centred

I think i converted the wrong mesh.

Anyway,i do'nt request this topic's clousre,i'm sure it will happen to me again sometime.

Thanks for your replies,

if the track is being done in max/rvtmod there is a chance (very rarely though) getting a bug-like phenomenon, odd poligons (and invisible walls) cause the camera to take a strange dive, when driving over, under or beside the odd polis. might be the case here.

We are NOT talking about tracks here...

And it's the car that is the problem,not that Lego track.
And also as i said:
