El Diablo 702 1,342 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Got one of these last night, it’s a fun lil thing that will bring back some San Andreas vibes. Not too fast to be uncontrollable not too slow to be boring. Alas go cart bumper car racing inbound. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Pedinhuh 20,511 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) You can haul this bad boy on the back of pretty much every single open bed pickup truck in the game and the Kart will remain stable on it, but on pickups that have the tool boxes on the truck bed which works as extra seats the kart will clip through them and will damage the truck and the Kart a little. Just gotta a find a elevated ramp where you can drive the kart over, and use it to load on the truck. To get the Kart of the trucks, two bullets of a regular sniper rifle on the hinges of the tailgates will get the tailgate down. These are the trucks that I know the Kart can fit in: Bobcat, Bodhi, Bison, Duneloader(it needs a clean bed and will slide out the back because there's no tail gate), both variants of the Sandking and the Slamvan(the problem is making one of those spawn though). It's too big for the bed of the Picador, and I assume the same for the Rat Truck. Edited December 21, 2020 by Pedinhuh 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Piro 20,291 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) Apparently you can do this. And you get a crazy speed boost from doing it. I tried to upload a video but SocialClub is broken right now... So here are some pictures: edit: Also I want Mario Kart mk2 version of this. Something that can jump and drop oil and kinetic mines. Maybe a parachute/glider version as well? Edited December 21, 2020 by Piro 3 5 Link to post Share on other sites
AUScowboy 17,375 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 This can tank explosives but the Stealth Annihilator can’t? FFS R*... I love the kart but holding back races is the stingiest, stupidest decision they’ve made in years. Peak R* logic. By the time it’s raceable most players will have moved on and won’t give a sh*t just like OWR. Only time I can get an opponent for OWR is when they are double or triple money.. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Worse part of all is that even if there were races we could use the karts right away, the fate of them would be the very of the Open Wheel races... Which was also the fate of Issi Classic races... Which was also the fate of Hotring Sabre races... Which was also the fate of Special Vehicle races... 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Which was also the fate of Issi Classic races... Which was also the fate of Hotring Sabre races... Which was also the fate of Special Vehicle races... Payouts for all races need a buff. If they paid a minimum of $25 to all player whose finish an 8 minute race I feel a lot more casual players would play them. It's certainly too much to ask or it would have happened by now. It's not unrealistic though IMO, most 8-10 minute VIP/Terrorbyte work pays that amount. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Commander S 25,915 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I do like how the mod options for the Classic let you approximate a bunch of different retro karts - I've based one of mine on that Rupp Dart posted up-thread (albeit swapping the gold and white for red and black), and then my 2nd character's one on a similar-era Sears Fun-Kart (swapping the orange for blue, and the yellow/white trim for white): 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre "2K" 2,762 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 kinda wish you could remove the modern's bumper car border thing, given how bad it clips into the ground. But...yknow, it performs well. Too bad it can't do that wall ride thing as well as the classic 3 Link to post Share on other sites
AUScowboy 17,375 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Looks great and great liveries but drives like absolute doo doo. So does the Brioso 300, they all oversteer so bad and cannot be corrected/saved. All of them are giving me flashbacks to be bugged Infernus Classic.. Link to post Share on other sites

This happened with Open Wheel races as well, and you could play community-made ones on PC (without modding tools) before they were officially released.

Standard Deluxe 59 15,470 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I wish these didn't take up a whole garage space each. They're so tiny I should be able to put them in a corner or in my empty Terrorbyte. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Look up transform races, and vehicles are set to be Cycles. However, when you get into choosing a bike, when the game starts you’re in your custom go kart. Just played yesterday it was fun. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Pedinhuh 20,511 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) Given how little they are, they could fit very well in our Clubhouses parking spots. I also wish there was a way to remove the black bumpers from the Modern kart, they spoil the look of the whole kart on top of clipping everywhere.

touchedmysoul09 309 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Can anyone enlighten me on the differences between to classic and modern forms? Trying to decide if it’s really worth it to buy the modern since I got the classic for free. Besides the obvious design/customization differences, is there really a change in performance?

Neither can be raced at the moment but if they could they're about equal overall 1 Link to post Share on other sites
AUScowboy 17,375 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I've used both karts combined maybe twice since they dropped. The models and mods are great but the handling and curb clipping and lack if races and them being shoehorned into the sports class all feels extremely half assed. I'm sure I'll come around a bit when the races come out, but as of now these karts are the crappiest part of the update so far. Both clip almost as bad as the Faction. I get that they're karts and low to the ground, but driving these things around FR is both a bore and a chore. Link to post Share on other sites
