35 Hybrids on 8/27/02
                           ********NOTE********


The cars on this page are not the exact copies of their movie relatives.  They instead represent what these cars are portrayed as being capable of doing.  For example, the real General Lee from the Dukes of Hazzard couldn't go 180 mph to save its life, but according to the way the show was filmed, it appears to be able to do so easily.
Bullitt

'68 Charger 440
added 6/12/01
(Black '71 Charger)
637 hp
2535 lbs.

1)  Put in these codes:
Displacement:  0f55
Front Tires:  1227
Rear Tires:  1227
Weight:  005f

2)  Set auto gear to 10

This car handles well and is fun to drive, as it powerslides easily.  It has better 0-60 acceleration than the Mustang below, but by the time 1/4 mile comes up, they are pretty even.

0-60 = 2.9 seconds
0-100 = 5.9 seconds
400m = 10.7 seconds
Top Speed = 195 mph

'68 Mustang added 6/12/01
(Black Shelby GT350)
571 hp
2336 lbs.

1)  Put in these codes:
Engine:  0246
Weight:  0093
Displacement:  0f55
Front Tires:  1227
Rear Tires:  1227

2)  Set auto gear to 12

This car handles very well, and hugs the turns better than the powersliding Charger above.  While the Charger has greater acceleration low down, the Mustang has a better top speed.  These two cars should be fun to race against each other with a friend.

0-60 = 3.4 seconds
0-100 = 6.1 seconds
400m = 10.7 seconds @ 146 mph
Top Speed = 205 mph

The Car

"The Car" added 1/4/00
( Brown Plymouth GTX)
981 hp
1763 lbs. or 2138 lbs.

1) Buy the Escudo Pikes Peak and put it in the first slot.

2) Put in these codes:
GTX Name and Body:  1898
                                    1f59
Front Tires:  1227
Rear Tires:  1227
Color:  0063
Weight:  0085 (optional)

This car is loosely based on the black Lincoln driven by Satan in the movie
The Car.  I chose to use the GTX because it looks the most like the car in the movie.  Unfortunately it does not come in black, so I had to use brown.

This is a great car.  It is very fast, much like the car in the movie.  With the weight code 0085, handling is sloppy but tons of fun.  With the normal weight, handling is more stable, but less entertaining.

Christine

Christine added 1/4/00
(Red Plymouth GTX)
640 hp
2888 lbs.

1)  Buy the Escudo Pikes Peak and put it in the first garage slot.

2)  Put in these codes:
GTX Name and Body:  1898
                                    1f59
Front Tires:  1227
Rear Tires:  1227
Engine:  023f
Weight:  00f9
Turbo:  0000

This car is based on the car "Christine" from the movie.  Unfortunately, there is no '58 Plymouth Fury in GT2, so I had to use the Plymouth GTX body.  Since the car in the movie had a very modified engine, I decided to copy that here, which is why it has more hp than a real '58 Fury.

This is a good car.  It is very fast, and sounds great.  It will run sub-1 minute laps on Tahiti Road at 170 mph.

The Dukes of Hazzard

Daisy Duke's '73 Roadrunner(from the ealier episodes)added 1/20/01
(Red Muscle Car)
667 hp
2513 lbs.

1)  Put in these codes:
Engine:  025
Displacement:  0f55
Weight:  01f6
Rear Tires:  1227

2)  Set auto gear to 9

This is a good car.  Although it is not as fast as the General Lee below, it is still very fast and fun to drive.  It will get to 170 mph in 4th gear, and handles reasonably well, though it could use a little tuning.  0-60 is 3.8 seconds, and 0-100 is 6.8 seconds.  It will go 400m in 11.248 seconds @ 142 mph.

The General Lee ('68 Charger) added 1/20/01
(Red Charger '71)
719 hp
2337 lbs.

1)  Put in these codes:
Engine:  0246
Weight:  00ef
Displacement:  0f55
Front Tires:  1227
Rear Tires:  1227

2)  Buy the Racing Muffler and NA Tune Stage 2.

3)  Set auto gear to 12.

This is a good car, and is tons of fun to drive.  It can be a handful to drive, though, as 719 hp going to the rear wheels creates a lot of wheelspin.  It is not much harder to drive than a Viper, though.  It turns reasonably well, but you can spin out in this one easily if you aren't careful.  0-60 is 3.8 seconds, 0-100 is 6.2, and it will run the 400m in 10.998 seconds @ 150 mph.

Goldfinger

James Bonds' Aston Martin DB5 added 6/12/01
(Gray DB6)
581 hp
2513 lbs.

1)  Put in these codes:
Engine:  011b
Weight:  00be
Front Tires:  1227
Rear Tires:  1227

This is based on the Grey DB5 Driven by James Bond in the movie Goldfinger.  It has interesting handling, but is very fun to drive once you get used to it.  It is very quick too.

0-60 = 4.1 seconds
0-100 = 7.2 seconds
400m = 11.5 seconds @ 143 mph
Top Speed = 177 mph

Gone in 60 Seconds

Eleanor added 12/22/00
(Shelby GT350 or GT500)
665 hp
1984 lbs.

1)  Put in these codes:
Brakes:  4502
Displacement:  0f55
Weight:  0200

2)  If you are using the Shelby GT500, start with these settings:
Spring Rate:  15.4/17.0
Ride Height:  109/119
Auto Gear:  17

This hybrid is based on the car involved in the movie Gone in 60 Seconds.  Many people requested me to build it, so I decided to spend a little extra time on it.

This car is hard to drive if you decided to use the Shelby GT500 as the base car for it.  If you chose to use the Shelby GT350, it is a little easier.  The settings given above for the GT500 are just a starting off point.  They are only meant to put the car under control enough for you to try it out and make your own adjustments.

Yes, I know, this is Fujiwara Takumi's car, and I added it almost 8 months after I added the others.  Truth is, after I had built it, I lost the instructions for this one until last week, when I found the paper deep under my bed.  Anyway, this is Takumi's car, so you guys can quit emailing me requesting to make it :p

Anyway, this is a good, fast car, but needs shorter gears.  It's not really much of a drifter, but it is fast.

0-60 = 5.0 seconds
0-100 = 13.9
400m = 13.9 @ 100 mph
Top Speed = 140+ mph
