AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Right, I''ve gotten it to compile okay now (had to find Borland compatible libs first) - quick question, are the colours supposed to be really messed up (i.e. black block & green background)?
How accurate do you need your collisions to be? A simple bounding box would probably be best, but I don''t know how to get the geometry of the car from DirectX. If you can get me the individual planes for each object, I can write you some collision detection code. I recommend you write a getGeometry method that returns an array of Planes, each of which is an array of the four corner points. Might be an idea to also write a numberOfPlanes method that will return the number of planes that make up the object, simply to make parsing the planes easier.
One point - I found your code quite difficult to read. A few more comments would be appreciated! (As well as some indication of which functions are in which files).

Ok, I''ve got the collision detection working, YAY!!!!!!!!!. Now I just need to figure out a way to get my collision detection to handle gravity.

Congratulations that you got it working. But what does gravity have to do with collision detection?

If you did your collision detection properly in 3 dimensions then it shouldn''t fall through the ground.

My collision detection stops a car when its about to collide with anything. So if i added a gravity vector then the car would stop.
