    Hi all,
    is there any secret or special trick to get car damage, visual and physical?
    After this big accident, still alive, no broken suspension, no damaged engine, or any bump.
    With other cars you have to hit something very hard to get a sagged axle, but in TimeTrial it is very sensible with some others.
    I am doing wrong something?

    Isn't there a setting that enables car damage? Can't remember the name of it, but I had to enable it to get damage IIRC

    Probably not, unless you deactivated damage in the gameplay settings. Other than that, some cars are built sturdier than others, and not all cars yet have a visual damage model afaik (could be wrong on that and most should have one anyways). The cars I know have one for sure are the Omega Stock Car, the 2020&20201 Stock cars and teh Copa Classics. You also get engine damage from overheating easily in the shifter kart on a normal track like Salvador. Maybe try one of those and see if they can be damaged easier.

    I have set on "full damage" as well.
    OK, maybe these cars (still) don't have a damage model, neither visual nor physical:(.

    I can confirm that these cars have no damage model as I just caused a 5 car pile-up at top speed & not a scratch ..lol

    Had a race at Salvador with SC2021, hit the wall several times, no damage, visual and physical.

    Hmm, weird. There was a bug some versions ago where options sometimes didn't show correctly and you had to switch them to activate them. Maybe try to cycle through the damage settings in gameplay settings until you're at full damage again and check if that changes anything.

    I did crash the 74 RSR yesterday at both Cascais and Imola 72, with noticable damage both visual and physical, and the Vintage G1M1 with physical damage to the suspension.
