Custom Racing
Machines
Here some of the machines that
we've created in GX's Garage mode.

|
  Bright
Barrel-Z (Hutz)
C
Body:
Rapid Barrel
A
Booster:
Triple-Z
C
Cockpit:
Bright Spear
|
| This is
my ultimate machine, and excels at everything that's important
to me in a racer. It has insane max speed, is capable of turning
suddenly without losing control, and has a body that can withstand
some hits. Another plus is its A-rated boost, which really rockets
this baby ahead. Its only drawbacks are slow acceleration and
insufficient cornering. The cornering aspect can be fixed by
going no higher than 70% max speed on the machine settings screen,
as well as learning how to slide and drift effectively, and
I just live with the acceleration. Since the Bright Barrel-Z
has high max speed and the highest possible boost rating, it
blazes by the competition once it gets a chance to warm up. |

  Wild
Lizard (Hutz)
B
Body:
Wild Chariot
C
Booster:
Boxer-2C
B
Cockpit:
Heat Snake
|
| The
Wild Lizard is a unique racer that possesses a certain beauty
and charm. This vehicle proves that you don't need max speed
to win a race. Its good points lie in its high acceleration,
quick and tight cornering, and durable body. These stats make
it an excellent weapon for destroying opponents off the starting
line. Its high acceleration and tight cornering mean that it
won't lose much speed around corners, and by the time you leave
one you'll have it all back again. Its boost is average, but
can be used around corners easily to gain the edge over slower-turning
opponents. To avoid losing control and to make sure your max
speed is sufficient, set your machine settings to about 90%
max speed. |

  Flame
Spider-4X (DetErest)
C
Body:
Holy Spider
B
Booster:
Punisher-4X
B
Cockpit:
Heat Snake
|
| The
Flame Spider-4X is a lighter machine, and it handles quite well.
The shape of the body looks a bit like a space fighter, and
with the Punisher-4X booster, it slightly resembles an 'X-Wing'
from Star Wars... |
|
|
  Rapid
Vixen (DetErest)
C
Body:
Rapid Barrel
C
Booster:
Boxer-2C
C
Cockpit:
Cyber Fox
|
| This
well balanced machine does well on practically every course.
It's lighter than most standard machines, so it can take corners
with ease. But since it is a light machine, it's not capable
of reaching the high speeds that heavier machines can. A setup
like this would be a friendly combination of parts for a new
driver. |
|
|
  Ultra
Coyote-V2 (DetErest)
B
Body:
Fire Wolf
A
Booster:
Thunderbolt-V2
B
Cockpit:
Super Lynx
|
| A
heavy machine that looks a bit like a fighter jet, especially
in the right shot as it flies off a jump on Big Blue - Drift
Highway. It also has the Detstar logo stamped on it, although
it's too hard to spot in these screenshots. |
|
|
  Megalo
Fighter (DetErest)
A
Body:
Megalo Cruiser
C
Booster:
Boxer-2C
C
Cockpit:
Sonic Soldier
|
| The
Megalo Fighter is a very heavy machine with a solid body. It's
extremely slow off the starting line, but once it builds up
speed, it can easily catch up and pass opposing racers. I built
this machine with intentions of creating an excellent destroyer,
but it has a few downfalls that make it difficult to perform
well on challenging courses. Back to the old drawing board... |
|
|
  Eliminator
(DetErest)
C
Body:
Rapid Barrel
A
Booster:
Devilfish-RX
A
Cockpit:
Combat Cannon
|
| As
much as I enjoy destroying other machines with my Megalo Fighter,
it's a bit too heavy, and doesn't have good enough control.
But the Eliminator improves in areas where the Megalo Fighter
is lacking, to create the ultimate battle cruiser. It's 2000
kg, and has excellent boosting and handling. I was able to crush
27 other vehicles using the Eliminator on a Master Class Grand
Prix circuit. Extreme killing power indeed. |

|
  King
Neptune (DetErest)
A
Body:
Grand Base
B
Booster:
Titan-G4
B
Cockpit:
Super Lynx
|
| This
was the very first machine that I ever created... Since then,
I've unlocked countless new parts... But to this day, this machine
STILL holds my best personal Time Attack record for the Sonic
Oval course. It's a heavy beast, good for smashing other machines,
and reaching very high top speeds. |
|
|
  Highway
Sword-4X (DetErest)
C
Body:
Silver Sword
B
Booster:
Punisher-4X
C
Cockpit:
Sonic Soldier
|
| This
machine was basically created for looks, but it's also a decent
ride. It has a bit of an 'evil' scheme to it, with the coloring
and the skull... So I chose Deathborn to be the pilot of this
evil racer. |
