vehicle importing issue

hi all,
I modeled a vehicle in blender and exported it to COLLADA. when I try to import it in T3D i always get troubles, i found that if I create a new datablock copying values from cheetahcar and change the path of the shapefile my vehicle seems to work, but it's like having 3 steering wheels. Also if I restart the world editor the script for my vehicle disappears from the menu on the right.
I was wondering where to find an up-to-date tutorial for making a fresh wheeled vehicle script without copying other values, and also how to fix those issues.
thanks :)

Trying to use the buggy as starting place, when putting the dae file as shape torque crashes. I think I may find a dts exporter for blender, but it's impossible to dowload it from the blender website.

Also make sure that the collision mesh[es] and nodes are setup correctly as this can result in poor performance as well...
