The Vapid Flash GT Appreciation Thread

[Kushology]

You are wrong. Downforce vehicles need a spoiler as of Smugglers Run as stated in Broughy's video when SR came out.

What are you on about?

 

That's just a list of vehicles you can glitch parts off..

 

Did you even read the sh*t you're replying to?

 

E: Seems I totally missed you replying to that other person, no idea why you have to quote all that though, thought you were replying to the list..

 

My mistake.

any pics of this baby without the ugly liveries?

you mean other than on literally the same page as your reply? bite me. i meant more.

[MeisterJazz]

Its almost time for this baby to be potentially released!

[pooprope]

Wow, the license plate sits as high as my grampas pants.

[AUScowboy]

Meh, oh well, maybe next week.

[Rafae]

Next week it is

 

 

(Hopefully )

[Driver92]

I just want to add, the front resembles a little the Hyundai i20 WRC
which i believe isnt very common or not aviable in the US so you might not know that car.

Of course overall its supposed to be a Ford Fiesta Ghymkana because it is labeled as a Vapid.
The window line on the side also clearly is a Fiesta, and the back could be a little 2000s Focus Hatch but with these taillights i dont really have a clue where this is from.

 

There ya go. Destroy my opinion !

 

Edit: you can stop now, i just read someone already posted a picture of the i20 WRC !

^I agree with you but to be fair many modern cars have similar overall hatchback shapes like this one. It could be any. But anyways it certainly is a Fiesta.

The backlights reminds me of some Dinka tho. Maybe a reference to the OG Flash?

The only Fiesta-like features are the rear taillights (which look sort of like the 2018 Fiesta model's ones), almost the entire rest of the car is a Focus - especially that roofline.

Of course they skipped it. Asswipes.

 

You'd think that releasing them in groups was a nice thing for them to do, but no, they will always find a way to annoy us.

[Rafae]

They figured having multiple a week would excuse them for skipping weeks. Just give us one car a week and leave it at that lol.

That's exactly what I was thinking! They're just smart asses.

 

Just watch -- After they release the next batch, they'll skip two weeks. Mark my word.

[Rafae]

Pretty sure they will as this update's drip feed is supposed to last all the way til June. No doubt they'll be skipping weeks to drag the cars all the way until the end of May.

I really, really, really hope thay you're wrong.

I agree with you regarding it looking similar to the Focus, specially the front lights (and the huge grille from the RS) now that I'm really observing. But then again the Fiesta looks so damn similar to it... Like a smaller brother. Dont you think? Maybe its just me.

 

My guess was based mostly on the Ken Block livery... But now that I come to think about it, the Drift Tampa isn't a hardtop Mustang so... yeah.

 

And regarding the tail lights, I just looked up the 2018 model and you are totally right. But I still cant help but see the Blista there lol.

[_Celldweller]

The Blista you say?

 

 

Sorry, I know you meant the Flash from San Andreas.

 

EDIT: wtf? I used the IMG tags in brackets but no picture went up, just a link?

 

EDIT 2: FiXT

Actually I meant this Blista lol.



About the image, if you remove everything after .JPG it should work I think

Instead of the pics, can someone tell me how it performs? On/off-road?

[Aslad]

I like how the new Focus model has just been announced:

Spam of the new models in spoiler

 

 

 

 

 

[AUScowboy]

30 hours. Can't wait, this thing looks fast. Hopefully it comes out near the top of the sports rally sub class.

Yep soooooo hyped! Will u be buying the Cheburek or the Issy classic?

Edited April 16, 2018 by Tausif_1307

[thesentient]

Super pumped for this car. Really hoping they fix the car physics in this drip.

[AUScowboy]

^Me too, those sh*tty flags have to go asap

 

Yeah Tausif, but honestly I more excited about the Sea Sparrow.

[Arrows to Athens]

30 hours. Can't wait, this thing looks fast. Hopefully it comes out near the top of the sports rally sub class.

In terms of top speed, I'm presuming it's around the 116 mph mark, which is about average. Not very fast, but not slow, either. To put that into perspective, it'll be on par with sports cars such as the Sprunk Buffalo, Schwartzer, Sultan, and Sentinel Classic. The acceleration seems quick, though.

I guess when I refer to the rally sub class, I'm talking about off road performance: traction loss, the new bouncing vehicle flag, cornering off road.

 

Man... this batch finally rolls around and of course my house is out of power due to the epic mid spring ice storms.

I saw a video on it, and apparently, it's only slightly quicker than the GB200 in terms of straight line speed, but I have no idea about the traction and cornering. Guess we'll have to wait until it comes out tomorrow...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

or next week.

[TacitusKilgore]

Confirmed on Newswire to come out tomorrow along with the Issi Classic and Sea Sparrow.

[HamwithCheese]

7.5/10

I think this car couldve been dominant on short, technical races. It washes out on high speed corners, but the steering responds very well and quickly. Pretty smooth over bumps and would have great acceleration. Decently detailed (has a transversely mounted engine too), but kind of expensive for what it is now.
