Coordinate system version 1 (outdated)
Previous to code revision 2196, the .car files all used mixed coordinate systems.
* blender coordinate system car x = right & left, negative being left car y = forward & back, negative being back car z = up & down, negative being down
* .car file: mass positioning (same as blender) car x = right & left, negative being left car y = forward & back, negative being back car z = up & down, negative being down
* .car file: wheel positioning (tested on Front Right wheel) wheel x = forward and back, negative being back wheel y = left and right, negative being right wheel z = up and down, negative being down
* .car file: view positioning (same as wheel) view x = forward & back, negative being back view y = right & left, negative being right view z = up and down, negative being down
Coordinate system version 2
As of code revision 2196, the .car files can optionally use the following coordinate system for all parameters:
car x = right & left, negative being left car y = forward & back, negative being back car z = up & down, negative being down
This coordinate system was picked because it matches the blender coordinates. To use this coordinate system, specify "version = 2" in the .car file.
