Pemto is a car that can be found on Joe Groombridge's website. Joe Groombridge was one of the artists that made the original Re-Volt stock cars, but Pemto got never released. The picture on his homepage is the only picture available from this car.
StrixMidnight did a great first custom version of Pemto. His version was based on the Humma/SNW35 body. In 2017 the original Pemto body became available, because the lost car 'Mc RC' was found.
We used this opportunity, to rebuild the original Pemto as good as possible. The car has a RWD drive and is quiet fast for the Semi-Pro class. It has a higher top-speed then Zipper and Adeon, but some weaknesses as well. Pemto don't like walls for example - so better avoid to hit them! Also slippery roads are not his favourite terrain. But if you invest some time, you can do some fine results against other cars in this class.
Texture and boxart size are matching the classical Re-Volt style.
We hope you enjoy Pemto!

Update 2.0b from October 1st, 2023:
This car wipes away the nascar of the nineties and noughties from racing. I really like the look of this machine and it has good textures. It has good speed and good acceleration. Enough with good handling. I really like this car as I love Nascar racing.
Talk about desperation, posting a random comment like that.
Either way What do I have to say about the Pemto, one of the oldest known car mods for Re-Volt/RVGL, brought back to life as a remodel of Mc RC? The mapping is very Acclaim esque which doesn’t allow for repaints being done very easily but, a lot of people would beg to differ, given the fact the Pemto Pack Project, with dozens if not a full hundred skins for it happened, this is a car that is quite defined within the RV community. The model of it, the looks, heavily derived from the 90’s known Ford Taurus NASCAR, which I still think still looks good up to this day. The parameters or how it handles..is a little different from the other normal cars driven.
I have tested it a while ago now, but I still remember it, if you think this is grippy, you are mistaken. It is a bit of an exquisite one. It can be stable/unstable at times, sliding about, but what really reflects it being an American car, given the situation, you can somehow pop wheelies with it, and that’s fun. As far class goes, it is very much on pace with Semi-Pro cars, and given how it was paramized, I say it is a rather fun car to drive. Chalk it up to having a plethora of skins available made by the community, this car is a classic. Try it if you haven’t already.
