    A wacky experiment of mine, created with the only purpose of fulfilling my desires of seeing some F-zero themed vehicle in Re-Volt going at 1000 kmh.
    I used the parameters of one of the vehicles from the WipeOut conversion packs, and made some heavy modifications to make this thing hover and being capable of taking curves at high speeds without any problem.

    Also this is going to be part of a bigger thing in the future.

  1. This thing is insane. It’s obviously a novelty car, so don’t expect it to be usable for your average track. This is def meant for high-speed courses like SS Highway Volt. But as a novelty car? It’s damn fun. I have no idea how the params for this were set up, but it’s a crazy car that is extremely fast with handling that while tricky is really fun when you master it. It’s speed is countered by it’s handling, so it technically is still able to compete with other cars in the class without leaving them in the dust. Definitely worth messing around with, just make sure to use it on a track where it can show it’s full potential.

  2. This is Ultra alright – ultra controllable. Technicall, very controller when you have the throttle down, but let go and it’s driving like it’s on molasses. This car was not meant for ordinary Re-Volt track, unless you are one robotic lunatic, master of games over here. It is however possible on speedy tracks to the likes of Red Rock Valley, Super Speedway, maybe even Toytanic.

    Granted, this is a F-Zero style car so, of course it is meant to be going fast. If you cat reflexes and mastered all the tracks, this is basically a new challenge for you – this breaks the almighty 50mph mark, goes yonder to break the 55mph mark – and people thought Formula Z, Saeger, Napalm and Rinne were for the experts. Nah, mate, this is proper expert.

    Unfortunately, this is where I draw the line, I personally don’t like it, and taste is subjective really. But it is well done, tastefully so so, I gave it a decent score without being biased.
