FM2 frenzy


Toyota MR-S

The long wait is finally over! FM2 is upon us!

The first vehicle that I purchased is the Toyota MR-S. Due to its light weight and perfect weight distribution it was an ideal platform to work from. After spending 40,300 credits' worth of parts, I eventually ended up with what you see here.

An "S" class go-kart with a performance index of 915 with about 453 bhp/ton, naturally aspirated. And it's not even maxed out yet... cos it's still on the mid-performance cams. Stats:

Power: 274 kW @ 7400
Torque: 404 Nm @ 5000
Weight: 806 kg
6 speed gearbox
Front tires: 215/35R17
Rear tires: 245/30R17
Wheels: Volk Racing CE28N

Posted a laptime of 56.977 seconds around Tsukuba without any tuning. :)
