This is Bumblebee, a remodel of Hi-Ban's Scorcher 6x6. It's the first colab between Mighty Cucumber and me. I did the remodel and textures, Mighty made the parameters. Thanks to IronBob, for sending me the stripes for Bumblebee's top.
There are 3 alternate liveries included in the download (Red, Yellow and Black).

Surprising box art first of all, expecting a monster-truck like 6-wheeler, but in fact Bumblebee is rather tiny, which is fitting the bee theme well. I wonder which exploits are possible through being that small…
Statwise, one of the weakest cars of its class. But what the numbers don’t show is the enormous amount of grip, that enables the Bumblebee to swarm around the outside of other cars in corners. That’s only enough on twisty tracks, like Medieval Redux, where Top Speed doesn’t matter. But as acceleration isn’t brilliant either, it’s difficult to compete with the others. So Bumblebee is a bit of a niche car.
If this is a remodel, it has got to be one of the most sneaky ones because, it seems to be pretty minor. As for what the car is and handles, it’s not actually a six wheeled car, but given the model making and more, it’s a pseudo-6 wheeled car which, isn’t very common. The handling, well, it’s not very fast, but that’s not what this counts. It’s rather exceptional. In tech tracks, this is where it’ll shine. Nimble and grippy, but can still spin out if you aren’t careful.
Not my favorite car for sure, but for what it is, I think it’s pretty good. The remade Scorcher skin is a neat bonus too.
