EkaSwede 9,672 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 What a cute little harmless thing this is. I was going to helpa friend with scoping out Cayo Perico but we got distracted with these things for far too long. I guess I'll be awaiting the Mario Kart themed karts and outfits to come. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
ilovefreebird 2,653 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 This thing is fun! It reminds me of older GTA titles, when enjoying the game was the main goal. 8 Link to post Share on other sites
Plocospermataceae 70 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 For some reason this dinky little thing can take multiple missiles before blowing up. People have shot me with Mk2 missiles, and it will kill me but the kart is still fine 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites

effenG 228 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Whenever I get a new vehicle I always hit the beach and jump the shark. This little thing jumps that shark better than anything so far! 5 Link to post Share on other sites
éX-Driver 4,497 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I love how it has bulletproof tyres pre-installed, as a reference to how old racing karts had solid rubber tyres rather than pneumatic. Can’t pop solid rubber. I’ve already got the planning and groundwork for replicas of SNES and GBA Mario Kart circuits, but don’t want to put too much effort until I know how their kart racing system is gonna work. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

gc8_STi 1,553 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 After ripping around in this for a few hours I gotta say this is one of the better additions in a while. Also to me it handles like a bigger rc bandito, which got me thinking that go kart time trials would be awesome to do in free roam 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Can't wait for the other one to come out. I even have a completely separate 2-car garage I have set up for these for when the other one comes out. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Collibosher 2,041 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I really like how, as pointed out earlier, it's heavily based on that 60's go kart and has all around that authentic and consistent classic go kart look. (My only tiny nit pick is that the red disk brake caliper in the rear looks a bit too modern) There better be some official go kart tracks incoming. They would even fit nicely "inside" the arena. 9 Link to post Share on other sites

Understandable that R* didn't want to invent a whole new series of animations for one (or two, considering the Veto Modern) vehicle, but still pretty goofy. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Pedinhuh 20,511 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Guys, was this thing meant to be weaponized? Can tank explosions, BP tires comes as standard, has it's own map icon and can't be used on races... These are characteristics of vehicles banned from racing because they come with weapons as standard, such as the Ardent and the Nightshark. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Rockstar is planning on making Go-Kart Races that act more like Mario Kart mixed with GTA Races, adding power-ups such as rockets and mines. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Mach1bud 61,864 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Ya know, the more I look, the more modern stuff I see. Engine is definitely a newer model OHV engine. The disk brake setup is a newer Kart thing as well. Both are common things to do on modern rebuilds of old Karts though. Would have been really badass if they made it an old flathead engine and a drum /band brake. I am impressed with the quality of the model though. Got the accel/brake cables, springs, rods, etc. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
