Car Physics: Slip-Angle Vehicle Dynamics Lab (2D)

2D top-down companion to the 3D Car Physics simulator: a real nonlinear bicycle model with tire slip angles, a friction-circle grip limit, longitudinal weight transfer and an engine torque/gear curve — drive it yourself with the arrow keys or WASD.
