Basically what I'd thought of is having a particle effect produced by te back of the vehicles if they reach a certain speed (it would be hardly distinguishable however). And when another car drives into this area their speed increases so that it is now the mean speed for their car's original speed and the car in front's current speed. I'd code it like this:
Perform a trace every 0.1 of a second from the back of every car. If a UWCar actor enters the trace at a distance of 512uu or under it will record the car behind's speed in a variable.
Then every 0.3 of a second it will check the current speed of the car the trace was run from and add it to the variable, divide by two and that will be the following car's speed until that following car leaves the slipstream.
I chose to use the following car's original speed in a variable because the car would soon crash into the one in front if it kept taking the mean speed from the tagging car and the lead car.
This along with the customisable coloured skins feature I explained previously would make this mod rock even more.
If anyone doesn't understand just quote the bit and I'll try to explain. My explanation skills aren't too good.
