HENDAY HEAT / RIVER CITY GARAGE

Four very different sets of keys.

Factory engine outputs, gearing, wheelbases and drivetrain layouts inform these cars. The exterior meshes are original simplified models; tyre grip and braking are calibrated against published instrumented tests; suspension, engine audio and damage remain game approximations. They are not validated replicas of the real vehicles.

Your Elantra and Z

The 2018 starter wears O-XXXXX, with the pre-facelift hexagonal grille, four-door greenhouse and 15-inch silver SE wheel covers. The Z uses the black, wingless coupe in your reference photos: a sloping hatch, boomerang lamps, vertical running lights, dark 18-inch ten-spoke wheels, silver door handles and two round exhaust outlets. Its dimensions and six-speed ratios follow the base coupe configuration.

Rig Rocket

The F-150 keeps its factory-rated diesel power. Its SuperCrew cabin and 5.5-foot open bed follow the 2019 body. Its six-inch lift, 35-inch tyres, smoky exhaust and 2,500 kg operating mass are a custom game setup. The real Power Stroke uses a ten-speed automatic, so this truck provides manual gear selection without a clutch pedal. Taller suspension and heavier tyres make it slower to change direction and stop than the sports cars. The smoke is a visual effect, not a claim about a stock truck’s emissions.

The V12

The Murciélago has a six-speed manual and a nominal 30:70 front/rear torque split. Its 1,765 kg simulation mass includes an estimated 100 kg for fluids and load above the published 1,665 kg dry weight. The model includes its low roof, rear cooling intakes, engine-cover slats and central exhaust.

How these cars drive

Four suspension raycasts support each free rigid body. Engine torque passes through the selected gear and final drive to the driven wheels. Braking and cornering share a tyre friction budget, and gravity continues during flight. Torque curves between published peak points, clutch and converter response, tyre friction and aerodynamic drag are approximated. Grass is evaluated independently at each wheel, with lower grip and higher rolling resistance. There is no added yaw correction or throttle-based traction aid. The game limits are 200 / 250 / 180 / 340 km/h respectively; power, gearing, gradients and drag determine whether a car can reach its limit. These are not guarantees of real-world acceleration or top speed.

The Z’s limited-slip differential

Your Z now has a custom clutch-type rear LSD. It transfers torque from the faster rear wheel to the slower wheel, improving traction when one tyre is on grass or unloaded. Locking is stronger under power and lighter on lift-off. Both rear wheels retain independent rotation, so the outside wheel can travel farther through a corner. Engine revs, tyre squeal, smoke and skid marks follow measured wheel motion.

Build 28 driving checks

On flat pavement, the production simulation holds approximately 200 / 250 / 180 / 340 km/h in catalogue order. The base 370Z produces about 0.88 g steady cornering, compared with 0.89 g in MotorTrend’s instrumented base manual test. Estimated drag and drivetrain losses predict about 284 km/h with its governor removed; that is a model calculation, not a verified unrestricted Nissan top speed.

These are repeatable simulation results under controlled conditions. Tyre condition, grades, weight transfer, throttle and braking change available cornering grip. The custom lifted truck has no equivalent factory performance test. The later wheel-inertia update supersedes these historical braking figures. Detailed tyre temperature and clutch-pack wear are not simulated.

The LP640 now includes the workshop manual’s 1.242 countershaft reduction ahead of its 2.529 rear differential: 3.141018 effective final reduction. Its 42:58 static weight distribution is reflected in axle positions. Its estimated drag area of 0.72 m² and drivetrain efficiency of 0.85 produce a natural top speed near 340 km/h.

Your nearest garage

644 River City Garage service zones cover the connected driving network within 2 km by road. Open GARAGE to mark the nearest gold G, follow the route, and stop there to buy, retrieve or repair a car. Every location shares your cash and owned vehicles.

Roads and rewards

Random connected-road deliveries pay $250 plus $300 per driving kilometre, rounded to $25, at drop-off. Escape adds a 25% bonus. Gadget crates occupy separate roadside locations and disappear while recharging. Edmonton’s source geometry is retained. The seven featured arteries now have 1,545 ID-specific cross sections and municipal travel directions; 855 have direct OpenStreetMap lane evidence. Odd lane counts, one-way carriageways, shoulders and centre turn lanes are supported. Widths and unmatched lane counts remain estimates. See the map reference notes.
