Really, very simple vehicle physics can be achieved with high school physics. One of the hardest parts to simulate accurately are the tyres behaviour. This can in an arcade game be replaced with nothing but a few constants, and it won't feel realistic but it will be driveable..
CF fabric? Not as cool as a composite 
Less than 1 cent of every American tax dollar is spent on NASA..
At 2:36 I was like OMG BRAKE!!11.
My brain trolled me :P
Why care about spending much fuel? Saving money? In that case, depreciation as mentioned will be much more expensive than any amount of gas you will be using.

Yes. This is sweet as hell. The passenger looks so scared..

What I really want is the manual staging 
Impossible to build anything big when it keeps reverting to the automatic one.
Edit: Nice, pretty decent speed

Oh snap, 'bout to get a physics lesson in here.
a = F/m.
Quite simply, too little force for too much mass. Add more boosters to the stage where you fail to accelerate. Or cut down on weight elsewhere.

Adding any part that influences sequences will reset it fully to the automatic sequence.. Annoying, but they say a completely manual sequence option will come soon. Also a tool to align stuff perfectly.
This planet is insanely dense, we're talking almost star level density. It seems like it's 600 km in radius and it weighs 5.29 x 10^22 kg, so the density is 58 g/cm^3 compared to the Earth with about 5 g/cm^3.
Which is why it's so hard to escape the gravitational pull.. Actually escape velocity at 100 km is ~3 km/s. Well, on Earth it's 11 km/s

There's still atmosphere 400 km above the planet 
What the hell.
By the way, that height was achieved with this.

You can't research anything.. You can mod it tho :P
I can't even keep the ship stable once I go above a few solid rockets

I like it, but it's so unfinished :P
It was fun playing with for maybe half an hour.

I know, I drive a DSG.. Also, when you shift manually with the stick or wheel paddles, it goes into manual mode for some preset amount of time (like 10 seconds) before reverting to automatic mode. Thus, if you manually up or downshift it will only ever stay in that gear for 10 seconds even if you keep constant speed.
Still, I love it for driving on public roads. I see practically no reason to drive a stick shift in everyday traffic.
Depends on what you're after, DSG is a fine gearbox, shifts like a manual and not at all slushboxy. But you won't have anything to use your arm for, except keep it on the wheel 
I'm excited for this There isn't a very big choice of single-class pickup servers. Well, at least not with a significant amount of people to race with on them

Err, it doesn't leave the Earth far enough to need such things. It can't go as far into space as the Space Shuttle can (well, could ).
).Yeah.. that wasn't hilarious or even interesting 
Not easily, and in 6th gear you'll be around 10k RPM at 150
25 kW is slow as hell, I drove a non-restricted FZ6 S2 on track and it's so much better. The Ninja 250r is a decent bike, but it's so damn slow and on the highway it's practically dead
When I can, I'm going to get at least something like the FZ6, which is 72 kW.

Lucky you.. I'm 19 too, I can't go past 25 kW. So I can drive a Ninja 250r or a bigger bike with an intake restriction
