What's the tank car like? Is it worth me struggling through yet more of those impossible driving missions? I could barely do the first ten, then i ended up with some crap car!
 
Haven't got it but heard it lives up to it's name. It's too big and bulky for racing or speed. It's a novelty ride. But you have to win it to win 1 through 34...just think of that R89C waiting for you!

the tank car feels just like the name goes. its a whopping 3000 kg!!! :eek:
its pretty much impossible to drive it at first since it burns so much rubber.
and the driving missions aren't too hard once you get the hang of it.
patience, my friend, patience.
and that delorean you won isn't that crappy!
 
Its a really fun car. Good luck taking off in first gear without wheelspin, 1600 ft/lbs of torque! (multiply that by first gear's ratio and final drive... :crazy: ) :D

Ok cheers everyone 👍
 
i got it long time ago, never even tried to drive it. I heard you can NOT run them in any of the races. only driveable in photo mode, and time trials. :)
 
You cant race it but its a cool car to goof around with but it does turn like a dump truck.

Or arcade... It's the same way for all open vehicles that don't have a top...
 
most everybody has allready answered, but there is one thing I would like to contribute.

jay leno's tank car is, what boils down to, an arcade mode only machine.
none of the open wheels vehicles can be used to race with anybody else.

this includes
the Tank Car
Caterham fireblade
15 T touring
Prowler

no fenders/wings means no group racing
 
Can it be used in 2player arcade?

the Fireblade can be raced, on the nurb, in arcade mode only.
Or photomode, orpractice. and what you said has all ready been said....
 
Why would he mean the Auto Union?

Also, if you click on the button that says "quote" in the lower right-hand corner of a person's post, you won't have to manually add the quote to your post. Or, if you want to add more than one quote to a post, using the code quote=name (with brackets around it of course) will automatically add the "Originally Posted By" bit, and it won't end up being misspelled. ;)

because i have practiced with the firebird on other tracks and if i try to race the auto union anywhere else it says it can only be driven in practice and photo drive on the 'nurb (:sad:).

thanks for the tip!:smile:

Gents, please keep it calm.

As I'm sure you are aware using upper case on forums/e-mails/texts, etc is the electronic version of shouting, and I'm not a big fan of people shouting around me.

Carry on like this and you will just end up winding each other up and doing or saying something you may regret.

Thanks

Sorry, for me it wasn't endended as a shout, but he was useing upper case, so i was trying to make a point he will see, since he hasn't seen my 15+posts around here that has mentioned me not having my PS2.









@Deloren: Your post had nothing to do with what i was saying, did you not understand what i was intending? cause to me it made no sense.
 
Please look at posts 18 & 19 , i was not attempting to stress anything, just to clarify a small point a lot of people tend to miss is all.
I was unaware you were sans PS2 Yoda or i would'nt have rubbed ure withdrawl symptons the wrong way. It must be tough.
This has strayed & if or one am ending my contribution to the thread.
 
If you are looking to highlight a point or word may I suggest the use of the bold tags instead.
