Wheeled vehicle flies away

Hi all,

I have been following tutorials on how to make a wheeled vehicle and after all the work it does weird things.
It keeps rolling in the air and flies at high speed.
I use the buggy wheels, and modify car.cs from the starter.racing application, for some reason the wheels are a bit far from the car body, i don't know if it's related to the problem.

Here's a link to the .dts and .max file if you want to see, it has a nice mesh but unfinished :( --> www.3dusers.com/celica2.zip

Sometimes you will inadvertantly rescale the bounding box while constructing the model and this throws off the transforms causing the vehicle to shoot into the sky and bounce around the terrain. Try resetting the transforms on the bounding box by deleteing the old one and recreating a new one at the appropriate size just prior to export.

RESCALING the BOUNDS BOX is BAD.

Thank you, that fixed the problem.
