#10 BeamNG.Drive is one of the best driving simulators, not just a crashing simulator
Tumblr media
You probably seen a game called BeamNG.Drive on many sites including Youtube. You may picture as a game for crashing cars made for kids, but this is only the perception that many YouTube channels make it to be. BeamNG simulates almost every part of a vehicle making it one of the most realistic driving simulators ever, it even has a indepth customization system and huge modding community. However many YouTube channels like to use this game for kids content and these videos usually are what get popular.
Because of all this, BeamNG.Drive doesn't get recognized by many car and racing fans as an actual good game when in reality it's one of the best ever to be developed.
Tumblr media
Now just because BeamNG is actually a good driving game doesn't mean it's bad at crashing, infact that's still one of the best parts of it. Many driving games suffer from the fact that if you make a mistake there's not too much of a consequence unlike real life where every turn and push on the pedals matter. Due to BeamNG's realistic crash physics and driving physics, you have to be careful with car or risk damage, even minor crashes can affect how your car drives.

#9 New car I made in Automation
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THIS is the 2024 Velasco Super Swirling Concept, it comes from the fictional Brand Velasco which is a semi luxury brand similar to Cadilac and Lincoln
Velasco is owned by Powell Motors, another fictional company that makes more normal cars like dodge or Ford does, both Velasco and Powell are American.
Tumblr media
The Super Swirling Concept shows what to expect from Velasco in the years to come. The design is supposed to be luxurious and the headlights are like wings.

#8 Advertising Wednesday: R31 Street Smart
Tumblr media
Above is a advertisement found in magazines for the R31 Nissan Skyline. Now this is actually only half of the full Ad, however I think this crop version looks a lot better, it's even my lockscreen wallpaper. Below is the full advertisement
Tumblr media
In the 1980s Nissan was struggling because people saw their cars as boxy and dull, so they did the exact opposite of what most struggling companies did and they went into sports. the R31 did win some races but wasn't very good at it, however it did pave the way for the R32 and it's domination in motorsports.

Daily Does Of Cars 6
Advertising Wednesday
Advertising Wednesday is when we look into the world of Car Advertisment
Fiji Toyota Commercial
This is a crazy ad for a Toyota truck that was made and aired in Fiji, Fiji isn't the biggest country in the world so the commerical isn't the best production quality, and I love the ad. It features a whole plot and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang style flying car scenes
youtube
My Own BeamNG Car Ads
I love playing BeamNG and if you don't know what it is you HAVE TO check it out. It's probably the most realistic car game and it has it own fictional brands, because of that me and many other people have made fictional ads for these cars, Here are some I made and I might feature what other people have made in a future post.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Porsche Advertising
I've done a lot of researching for automotive advertising and these keep popping up, they are all in the same style with a similar title/caption these were all printed in magazines and became very iconic. Although Porsche have done new style of advertising since these, we will always remember the creativity put into these ads

Yes I know I've been gone but don't care
Italdesign Columbus: the Weridest Concept Car
Is a Wagon? Is it a Minivan? Who knows? This is the Columbus designed by Itaildesign in 1992 and it was made to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America. It was made with carbon fiber, a BMW V12, and a center driver seat(so basically a Mclaren F1) however it also had 4WD and a total of 7 seats which can swivel. This car obviously stayed a concept however it still exists in the world and is still owned by Itaildesign

More info
The Chrysler Turbine Car
This was a car that had a very promising future for not only itself but also the entire automotive industry, but had a unfortunate end.
Chrysler once had a idea to put a Turbine engine into a car and in 1963 that's exactly what they did. There was 55 made that were used to experiment, and had a user program where people from various cities drove it and collected data. The car could run on anything as long as it was flammable. Chrysler once gave the President of Mexico a ride in one, he asked if it could run on tequila and sure enough it worked. So what happened to the car?
Also all of them were crushed or destroyed in other means by Chrysler, 9 still survive and are owned by museums and collectors including Jay Leno. The reason why the Turbine car was destroyed isn't entirely known however Chrysler executive have said that they didn't want prototype cars going into the Public and replace the Turbine engine with piston ones.

New Lamborginis for 2023
Lamborghini recently been doing a lot of one-offs like the Countach and the Sian but some new ones just came out. And no it's unfortunately the ones we been seeing in the spy shots but rather a diffrent car. It's the Invencible and Auténtica and unfortunately these are the last cars from lamborghini that will have a naturally aspirated V12. The new Lamborghinis come with new designs with lots of hexagons and and surprisingly no Y shaped lights or bodywork

Daily Dose of Cars 4
Rotary in a new Mazda
You read that right. Mazda is indeed putting a rotary engine in a new car. However it's not what you think. You see, Mazda recently made their first electric car, the MX-30. So now they are putting the new rotary engine as a range extender (the rotary charges the battery)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Don't lose hope though. There are many rumors and even patents that say that Mazda will use the new engine in a sports car.
Cars from Games built in real life
Burning wrenches is a youtuber who builds cars from scratch. Things from the Quadra v-tech or the ramp car from GTA V. He also build other cars and things like the cybertruck or the Kratos axe. Most of his projects are unfinished but a few are finished.

Chevrolet XT-2 concept
I know, I usually put these concept cars at the beginning of posts. The Chevrolet XT-2 was a concept car built in 1989 which looked like a futuristic El-Camino. It was also built as a pace truck and was meant to be used in Indy car but never was. The long front windshield and be lifted up to reveal the engine which was a V6 that had 360 Horsepower. I can't find any info on what happened to it except that apparently it still spotted at shows so it's still around (despite me not finding any pictures of it that wasn't taken in the 80s or 90s)

Daily Dose Of Cars 3
Quick thing before we start:
Sorry for not uploading the last few days. I thought about making up for it. However since no one seems to know about this page I decided not to.
Advertising Wednesday!
This is something I been planning. Every Wednesday, when I post a new Dose of Cars, I will make it about car advertising. It may not sound that interesting but It is
Old Pirelli Ads
These are some old Pirelli Ads mostly from the 80s.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That last one of the Ferrari F40 is my current banner for this page at the time this was posted.
Toyota Corolla
This is an ad for the Toyota Corolla for 1986. It's was made it look much more exciting then it was.
youtube
Bizzare Peugeot 207 Ad
Here is a pretty bizzare Peugeot 207 ad. Many people like to hate on this ad because the other cars in the ad are considered better then the 207. What is werid is that the advertisement is Cleary set in the US however the 207 was never sold there
youtube
Thank you for reading...
And I guess watching too

Daily Dose of Cars, 2
F1 Engine in a Minivan
The year is 1994 and the 10th anniversary of the Renault Espace minivan was coming up. Renault wanted to celebrate this and since F1 was another successful thing Renault was doing at the time. They made a minivan with the heart of a F1 car. It came with a V10 that made 789 BHP that was planted straight in the middle of the car in-between the rear seats. It also was very wide and needed carbon fiber reinforcements, They also had to put a ridiculous wing on it. It obviously was just a concept car however unfortunately this concept has been mostly forgotten.

"The Customer States" Compilations
I found this youtube channel that makes compilations of mechanics finding ethier the weridist car issues or car issue with a very obvious. Things from a entire car being filled with curry under the floorboards or to a customer not knowing how to turn a knob to make the AC colder. I highly suggest you watch these because they might be better then you think
youtube
Detailed lego cars
Last thing of today is this amazing Lego builder that builds various cars. These are usually first designed in a Lego building software and then built in real life. He also makes instructions for these vehicles that you can buy on his website. The cars are very detailed and are built to around the same scale of official Lego Creator/Icons cars.

The Lancia Stratos Zero
The Lancia Stratos Zero is a supercar concept first shown in 1970 at the Turin auto show and later lead to the very well known Lancia Stratos. It was designed by Marcello Gandini (who designed many other famous supercars) and led to many supercar becoming wedge-shaped

Real Life GAZ Chrion
Tumblr media
You ever seen this image before? It's a photoshoped image of the GAZ-21 mixed with the bugatti Chrion. But did you know someone made it real?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes those 3 images are of a real car. It's not modified off of a Chrion but rather they made all the bodywork themselves. You can see their youtube channel where they build this and many other things here
Tune Your Own Crocs
Last things of today is this online Etsy store that sells car parts for Crocs. Things such as pop up headlights, intercooler, wings, engine blower, and much more. These were all made using a 3D printer and can clip onto your crocs. This is definitely going on my Lightning McQueen Crocs.
