    EDIT 2: Reverted the car back into Pro class with a few tweaks to AI and handling. Should now be easier to handle both by the AI and of course, yourselves dear downloaders. :) Huge thanks goes to Gotolei for being kind enough and making a sick glowing exhaust for this RC Rocket thingie. Check it out, it looks awesome - https://streamable.com/kijd

    EDIT 3: Added a new, more realistic glowing exhaust (courtesy of Gotolei, check the video above), and corrected the origin of the wheels, so now the springs no longer go inside them. Thanks to URV and everyone else that tested the car. ;)

    UPDATE (24/09/2021):

    Completely remapped with the help of burner94 and Gotolei! Now includes a handy paintkit that will allow you to repaint it flawlessly.

    Corrected a small vertex shading inconsistency, model was triangulated (burner94).

  1. Ah,this car, an absolute machine and meme at same time. IN the correct set of hands, it’s an actual weapon to be dealt with in Pro class. A glass cannon, to be precise.

    The turning radius is super wide, great acceleration and top speed. But not only the suspension is fragile, it is also very lightweight. Bumps, bad bounces and attacks are prone to killing this car in a tough race.

    This is not for the novice drivers. You want to win, you want to take risks sometimes. Patriot is the answer.

  2. First things first: I like the car, it’s very fun to drive and needs extreme skill to be drivable. It also looks amazing and there are many cool skins to it.

    Second things second: I don’t think it is balanced for Pro class. It is quite resilient to pickups. It rolls very well after a star. It can easily absorb balloons and rockets so that it keeps heading forward. On tracks with lots of straight this car is absolutely unstoppable competition even with just average driving.

    I’m not quite sure what I would like to do with this car… move it to bonus, nerf it in pro or give it a buff and move it to super pro? I think this should be discussed.
