Broughy's testing showed the Shotaro gets the same benefit whether you lean forward or back. yeah my point is that there isn't any benefit from wheelies on the shotaro afaik You still benefit from wheelies, but no more than leaning forward, unlike most other bikes who are quicker leaning back than forwards.

I've added information about the Shotaro with the correct source linked. I also refined the text about brakes upgrades in Customizing Vehicles / Part I and III

Great thread, RapTor_X_. I would suggest the Blade as an option for muscles. It's not expensive and in certain situations able to compete with or even better than the Dominator RC and the Sabre Turbo Custom. Futhermore it's an easier car to drive than most muscles.

I noticed I've gotten slower in racing. I don't play as much as I used to, and it's hurt my pace. I used to be solidly midpack, and I'm slipping from that. Even just rediscovering stick flicking has helped. This thread is an excellent resource RapTor_X_ and I'm so grateful it's here. Thank you!

Wow, great guide! - Controlling the car in the air: While in the air you can actually control your car. You can't brake or accelerate in the air, so it won't change your landing spot, but you can correct the rotation and angle of the car. Use your right analog stick to roll your car sideways or forwards/backwards. Landing on your wheels is a good idea, if you don't want to explode. Less known is that you can also turn your car angle left and right with the left analog stick while using the handbrake in air. Using that you can land pointing to the right direction.
I think the bit about "won't change your landing spot" is not quite it. You for sure know by leaning forward or backward you will go further or shorter in distance. And I also tend to tell people to try avoid air time at all. Air time is slow time

I know this post old. But adding bumpers to RWD cars (EX. Futo) Increases traction by 2% though not showed in game.

Just wanted to say thanks for this. So much golden information & knowledge here.
It has inspired me to try & master the fast but 'difficult' cars.
With that said, could someone suggest a good neutral 'setup' for the following :
-re7b -elegy -pisswasser dominator -brioso
Many thx in advance.
