How to change speeds of cars?

Title basically says all. We are trying to slow down some vehicles on our server. How would we do this?

Is it a Addon car you are trying to slow down? or default cars in the base game?

If its a addon car go to this website and it tells you what each of the things do in handling.meta file:

If it is a Default car in the game I believe you just need to stream a handling.meta file with the spawn name and what ever else you need in there.
(I have never done this before but have edited multiple Addon cars)

It’s for add-on vehicles!

What would I need to change to change the speeds though? Has nothing in there for speed really. Thanks.

There is multiple things to change to deal with the speed I normaly just lower this value if its still too fast/slow ill mess around with the gear changing and how many revs it takes to get to the redline, just take a look in there and don’t be shy with it.

i change this:

<fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel value="225.000000" />

These are for how many revs to up shift and down shift:

     <fClutchChangeRateScaleUpShift value="7.400000" />
      <fClutchChangeRateScaleDownShift value="6.100000" />

This is for front or back wheel drive or both:

<fDriveBiasFront value="0.000000" />

0.0000 is back wheel drive, 1.00000 is front wheel and inbetween that is four wheel drive, depending if the number is lower or higher then 0.5000 will mean it has more power in the front or back, 0.5000 means its the perfect four wheel drive.
