@TheMeAndMe: I agree with you on your quality control point.
@Adamodell: The problem I have is that I don't just spend a day or two on a car, release it, and forget about it. Many of my cars have been updated upwards of 10 times, and some of them, like that notorious "Vanilla Ice" WRX STI, have probably been changed ~50 times because I'm constantly making little updates, corrections and change to the parameters, as well as occasional updates to the body and wheels.
I'm still at a loss for how I'm supposed to keep people up-to-date on my car's updates, but since I'm not all that convinced that anybody really cares, I don't think about it too much.
The latest changes are kind of neat though, since I incorporated a little bit of weight transfer into the friction values of the cars and, lowing their grip considerably, it makes their handling much more interesting - and the AI seems to be able to handle it, too!
