Default played a game last week.

Me and someone else played cars this past week and and kept getting people coming over to ask about the game so we did not get the fight finished off at all but it was fun.
The game was a simple 3 on tree road fight with a boomer from VG3, a modded threasher from VG1, and a custom gas compact with a pintal hvmg and gas.
both teams started at 60 from 4 road sections and closed ranged and misxed it up pretty quick and speeds dropped to 5mph pivot fighting on my part to keep the guns to bear. wasted about half the ammo in the boomer in the fight was about what i could recall since we kept having someone asking us something and got sidetracked about gaming in the meantime. but it was still fun to pull out and shoot someone a little bit.
the thresher was using a Hvmg in it and i can not recall what else was modded if much from it though.

Sounds like a bit of a knife fight. Fun!

As I don't have the VGs handy, roughly what class are those designs?

With Overdrive, and HTMs, it's now possible to build a _Car Wars_ car with a three-speed manual. (If one gets creative with the rules for Links, for an extra $100, one can have a three-speed *automatic*. :) )
