Good idea and some very well known cars there like the one from Patrick Mortier! And the Bastos Joosen car, we've seen that one many times!

I do like!
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Nice! Yup, there is an auto resize function active here but don't make them too big as this reduces page load speeds...
