Need for Speed: ProStreet/Car Physics

This list covers the different car components.

Engine
The engine is what takes in the gas (or electricity)and provides power for the car that is transfered to the wheels through the drivetrain.

Drivetrain
The drivetrain is the part in the car that transfers power from the engine to the wheels letting the car move.

Suspension
The suspension is the parts that take recoil from going over bumps in the roads.

Brakes
The brakes are the parts in the car that stop the wheels from moving.

Tires
The tires are the outside usually black part of the wheels that grip the ground providing traction for the car to move.

Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous Oxide is the chemical your vehicle can use for boosts. Unlike previous installments of the game, Nitrous Oxide does not recharge. Each vehicle is equipped with a maximum of four shots of Nitrous Oxide, so each burst should be used sparingly and strategically.

Body
The body is the hood and doors and everything basically not moving (except the doors and hood).
