Sho-Stopper (Velocity X)

Another contender arrives, meet Sho-Stopper!

Appearing in Velocity X, this beautiful tuner is a wonderful car to look at. It's fast and has decent acceleration, but it has one problem. It's grip is ATROCIOUS. It just understeers too much and that's what holds it's potential back. Again, it's not a spectacular car to use, but it's still a blast to use.

It may lack grip, but don't fret, if you can manage to use it, it can be a decent vehicle to use.

Like Jaded, I love this car aswell. I love the design of it so much. Mattel made great cars during the 90's and early 2000's and this one clearly shows.

Unfortunately, the name "Sho-Stopper" had to be changed due to a show called Showstopper and to avoid conflict, they changed the name of this car to "Seared Tuner". The team didn't like the name as it kinda sounds you're trying to say seared tuna instead of tuner.

Once again like Jaded, it's wheel were replaced as the OG wheels from Velocity X doesn't translate very well for RV. It also lacked the carbon fiber hood as in Velocity X, so I asked LivingWithGames to rip the carbon fiber hood texture from VX using a PS2 emulator. When he ripped it, it was just a small piece of texture, so I edited it myself by using some kind of trick and voila! As it should be in VX. I also fixed the front aswell so now, it is ready to hit the streets. Enjoy!
