The Silver Streak is a high speed, extremely maneuverable racing vehicle with a T-180 wheelbase. T-180s (from the 2008 Speed Racer film) use a steering system similar to shopping carts, except on all 4 wheels and controlled by the vehicle's on-board computer. Each of the 4 wheels are driven by the engine, rated anywhere between 2,900 and 4,000 horsepower. Each T-180 may also be equipped with Auto-Jacks, which allow the car to launch itself into the air to jump over obstacles on the track, or to perform maintenance when in the pits. This vehicle is based on the Mach 6, Speed Racer's T-180 race car.
Controls:
Pitch: Drive Forward/Reverse
Roll: Turn Left/Right
Yaw: Strafe Left/Right
Throttle: Engage Booster Engine (only Active while driving forward)
FireGuns/LaunchCountermeasures: Fire Jump Jacks
AG1: Toggle Auto-Jacks (Jump Jacks remain extended as long as this control is active)
AG8: Toggle Gyro Stabilizer (AG8 off will allow the car to spin out and flip uncontrollably, but run well on uneven tracks)
Additional Notes:
All 4 wheels steer, but not always in the same direction. At low speeds, or even stationary, the rear wheels will countersteer.
When steering, the car will automatically compensate for sideways movement, use this to drift through turns. (The further you steer into the turn, the harder the car will compensate, and the more the car will slow down.)
The machometer on the dash is not just for show. This car can and will break the sound barrier if given enough straight, level terrain. (Max speed of 1,439 mph, 2,315.6 km/h, or Mach 1.89 attained in modded map)
This car doubles as a speedboat, although it cannot jump in deep water.
Using slow motion will make the car jump higher.
The drive system works even with no contact with the ground. (Might seem cheaty, but it's fun.)
Both FireGuns and LaunchCountermeasures will fire the Jump Jacks. (mobile users no longer need to add a gun to this, but will need to enable either targeting mode)
The Jump Jacks have audio.
