Daytiny

Update v2.2: Car's top speed has been corrected to what it should be.

Part of the SD02 line that succeeded the original Starfire GT.

Daytiny was released in celebration of the 10th anniversary of a popular arcade racing game from the 90s. It came in two color schemes in reference to the automatic and manual transmission cars in the original arcade title. Unfortunately for international collectors, it was a limited production run only sold in Japan.

Being as stock car, Daytiny has a tall spur/pinion ratio to obtain higher top speeds at the cost of some acceleration. The chassis was also tuned to lightly mimic an arcade-racer feel.

...

Tips:

• Daytiny sports high top-speed, mediocre acceleration, and sub-par handling.
• The handling is  a bit similar to that of Col. Moss - it's an understeer-heavy railer with decent powersliding abilities. While the car is relatively easy to drive, cornering without losing too much speed can be a challenge.

...

Misc:

• Daytiny is a parody of the Hornet from SEGA's Daytona USA. The Default skin is based on the "automatic" color scheme while the alternate is based on the "manual" color scheme. No stat differences. :)
• The body design resembles a mid/late-80s stock car, but the hood decal ironically reads "Since 1999".
• Daytona USA was a source of inspiration for the railer-slidy parameters. However, I could not replicate how Hornet drives faithfully within the limits of Re-Volt.
• The rims used are the same ones on Ghosterino's "Power Spark" made by LivingWithGames.
