TuTu August 11 2015 - Project Runway
« on: August 02, 2015, 07:07:12 AM »

Car: SRT Tomahawk X

Setup: Stock. Wheels/Paint/Oil allowed.

Restrictions
Tuning: Prohibited
Tires: Whatever it came with
Lounge: Public Lounge
Track: Route X
Draft: Ludicrous mode

What's the Connection?
Runways are long straight paths for planes to take off on. Route X is a long straight path and this thing just might take flight. The top gear is really long so with high draft we should be pulling over 400mph... I wasn't able to get anywhere near the limit in single car testing but the car is stable enough to do one-lap bump drafting shootouts. Don't be scurred, this will be a lot of fun. Chaotic? Yes. Fun? Also yes.

TuTu is closed on August 4 because Sugar Ray is in town (4 years in a row!). Sorry!

Remember, this car has DRS (Drag Reduction System). (I believe it is the same button that would normally activate nitrous.) Once activated it drops the flaps and lowers the drag. Thus allowing a higher top speed in the straights.  ^-^

This car is paintable, lots of color should make for some cool replays. I'm curious to see how airborn we'll get after contact. ^-^ I'm gonna try to make this one.

That's really too bad, because I couldn't make it tonight.

So next week is now, now.

I am still suffering with my tooth and have to pick up a new prescription after work. Next week no more tooth, but until then the infection needs to go away more. 

So with any luck I should be in for a race or two.  :)

I made it home later than usual, but earlier than I had expected. Still too late though. I went ahead and tried the car in Arcade TT @ Route X and did not like it. So it's just as well.  :)
