MotorSim 2: Your Land Vehicle Performance Calculator
MotorSim 2 is a powerful performance calculator for land vehicles. Unlike driving games, it focuses solely on the physics of straight-line acceleration. The app lets you define vehicle specifications and then calculates the resulting performance characteristics.
An interactive simulator provides real-time feedback, including a speedometer, tachometer, throttle, brake, and manual or automatic gear shifting. The engine sound is procedurally generated, not sampled, and the simulation visually tracks vehicle position along a 1/4-mile track. Saved simulations ("ghosts") allow for easy comparison of different vehicle setups.
Configurable Parameters:
- Maximum Power
- Power Curve (point-by-point definition)
- Torque Curve (derived from power curve)
- Maximum Engine RPM
- Gear Configuration (up to 10 gears)
- Drag Coefficient (Cx), Frontal Area, and Rolling Resistance
- Vehicle Weight
- Tire Size
- Shift Time
- Transmission Efficiency
Calculated Performance Parameters:
- Maximum Speed
- Acceleration times (0-60 mph, 0-100 km/h, 0-200 km/h, 0-300 km/h, etc.)
- A wide range of other performance metrics measurable within the interactive simulator.
