We are using the vdrift car physics for a simulation.

We are using bullet as basic lib and just decoupling the car physics, which are calculated by vdrift. actually this is not as easy, as it appears, because the way both engines update their states is very different. BUT you gain very easy integration of objects (also dynamic) and crashes are much more realistic. further you can drive on everything and don't need that complicated differentiation between track, other cars, etc. Even soft body integration could be pretty easy. There is also the possibility to throw away that ray cast down the car axis to calculate wheel collision, as one could use bullet cylinder shapes for that.

i guess, there are a lot of fun things you could add to vdrift with those options?! why not add an arcade style jumping and levels to a realistic racing simulation?
