    are LEDs impossible to achieve with current tech?

    currently you don't have light at all :D
    i'm not sure what it will look like after the fix.
    i hope the new build is coming soon.

    I made LED brake light in rF1, I believe it should be possible in rF2 also, it is just textures that needs doing. There seem not to be any screenshot from what I made, but it was just black object and texture that did read BRAKES in red dots, not very pretty, but something that even I managed to do, trick is just paint lit brake light to be dots instead of normal brake light texture, that is all that is needed, imo.

    Clever ones can do even some glow there, but it goes beyond my abilities.

    BTW, I watched lot of russian car accident videos from youtube, in one there was sparks and again I did notice that those are quite dark yellow in colour, brownish yellow perhaps, often I see them quite bright in games, not sure which would be proper colour, maybe velocity should affect colour of sparks too?

    +1 for sparks, 80's/90's F1 cars had fantastic sparks when the underside touched the ground. Would love to see it implemented!
