Following the stable release of 1.17.154721 - vehicle mechanics have completely broken/gone out the window, allowing for some interesting (albeit frustrating) experiences to occur.

Vehicles, when in an unable-to-function state, can still be started and driven as normal (regardless of prior condition). When attempting to drive one of these normally non-functional cars, the failed vehicle engine sound begins to play continuously until the vehicle is destroyed or the server restarts.

Additionally, vehicles that are normally functional seem to damage themselves progressively until ruined/smoking as if they did not have any water in their radiator (even if sufficient water is present).

• Vehicles (regardless of condition) will start instantly when switching the ignition.
• Vehicle speed / acceleration has been greatly increased, allowing vehicles to redline at top speed in less than a few seconds - which is not something that is normally possible.
• Vehicle boost (holding shift on PC) seems to be forcefully enabled for console/controller users as it has not received an appropriate bind in the new update.
• Vehicle damage also seems to be broken, allowing for vehicles to severely crash/flip without any damage penalty to the engine.
