Baking car setup animation

Hi everyone,
There are some very nice car setup controlled in the BGE. I want to use it to create animation. Despite several artists uses some nice setups ,none of them shared their setup and workflow. Here’s some samples :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQ4RC2m-8Ls and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPU6xNNCE68

I have done my custom version from this tutorial : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0wnBjv4ZLw&feature=youtu.be

It works fine, the car motion is realistic but I can only bake the carbody animation because the wheels are not Rigid Bodies, they are done by raycasting, so no animation is baked from that.

Do you have a solution for that, or a better setup like the one used in the 2 animation sample up there?
Many user would like to use it, I don’t understand why no one shared this

Thx!

As far as I remember someone asked the same question years ago. As there is nothing build-in he wrote a script to record the wheels. But I can’t tell you more about it.
