Changing vehicle speed
Has anyone managed this? I thought I had at least changed the torque at some point but I've lost that code.

Ok, I think I just answered my own question. This seems to affect acceleration and such but I'm guessing the top speed is being limited in the vanilla code somewhere

I think SifVerT had a vehicle tweaks mod but if I recall correctly it did handling and not top speed
Note to self, don't disable tick - speed limiting isn't happening there

Was thinking maybe they were doing something like this

Yeah, they must be imposing a hard speed limit somewhere
I'm not sure, if you drive a vehicle down a steep slope can you get a higher top speed than flat ground?
Nope
I did find this in
FGWheeledVehicle but changing it doesn't seem to do anything
What is different between the various vehicles in the game?
IIRC they have different speeds
It's dirty but look for the move component that contains FVehicleEngineConfig , definitely can increase the max speed / acceleration (max rpm / rev rates) but things get slippery. Mario cart mod soon(tm). Probably the setter touches the torque curve here
you could try changing the transmission config instead. you may have to change max speed in addition, idk
