      I used two slot connections, one front, one rear, then an additional artificial component for orientation.

      The orient component was connected with a pin joint to the car and a parallel constraint to the ground plane.

      The pin joint allowed the car to tip up/down but not side to side.

      For bonus I added a sine wave to the helix and friction and bumper at end of travel.

      Note I used -Z direction for gravity.

      "...additional artificial component for orientation..."

      very good.

       

      what about "Redundancies"?

      oops!

      Redundancies = 2

      I used "slots" only.

      Ah, It works and seems simpler, and might allow banking the car (roll angle inward to bahn)

      The upper slot connection has free 3 rotational dof for total system of 4 dof.

      So the Masse_vorlage spins uncontrolled.

      However, maybe? we can do the same as to the CAR, to the Masse_vorlage and make 3 slots + 3 slots.

      Then only 1 dof left plus able to control roll of the car with the upper slot curve.

      I will try to get this working with the car rolled/banked inward.

      Thanks for the challenge.
