Im quite new to the customising side of MTM2 and i would just like to know what exactly is the point of the realism trucks to me they are just extremely difficult to drive all the want to do is roll over.
do they have there own league or something or do people prefer a more challenging experience?

if someone could shed some light on this for me i would be greatful

RTS stand for "Real Truck Suspension". This is a customization of the typical MTM2 suspension set up and is designed to make the truck accelerate, turn and brake like a real monster truck. But because of the way the game handles the suspension it makes the truck very unstable and hard to turn.

ah right cool.....im guessing thats why they have the suspension sticking throught the body quite alot. surely someone could create on that incorperates the games handling but still keeping it more realistic because i have notice some are more unstable than others

Its alot harder then you think... Plenty of people would be happy to give ya a link to binedit so you can try it for yourself. Actually ya don't need a link its on the main page.

When we first made RTS we called it Real Truck Suspension. That may have changed but that's what we used to call it.

The more you drive them it gets easier. Thats the only kind of truck i drive ingame now, once i learned how to make them myself, i convert every truck i download now. I've found that they're easiest to drive with hard suspension setting though (and the most fun IMO)

Yep, they are a bit difficult to handle but they are more as real monster trucks, the rest seem to turn as a rock would do...

Avengerfan, i do the same as you! I download RTS trucks only but I'm not very good on making them, it's a bit hard to me

yeah, one of our members is working on a completly new style of RTS that's easy to steer and doesn't have shocks sticking through the roof.

here's a test run at the world finals from him, still needs some work as he says himself.
