Scion tC now in World

Post by Hydro_PT »

Built by Scion, a division of Toyota that builds cars for the North American market, the Scion tC (short for Touring Coupe) is a 3-door, front wheel drive liftback. Powered by a 2.4-liter DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder Toyota engine capable of producing 180 hp @6000 rpm, this compact car is specially meant for young drivers, but has also shared space in motorsports, mainly in drift and drag categories.

You can get this new Tier 1 car in your garage today for 1500 Speedboost.

I definitely won't buy this one. What an ugly car. #-o

If they had released Chris Rado's Scion tC... now that I would buy. :D

Although I don't like FWD cars for racing, mainly because steering and traction in the same axle don't combine, for drag racing it doesn't matter much, does it? You don't have corners, so you might as well go for something different and create a FWD monster. :D

Sure I guess, but FWD is a bad idea for drag too, since the weight shifts OFF the drive wheels when you launch. IMO, the only thing they're good for is picking up the shopping. And only then if no-one recognises you in one.
