Default It's a 4-sp auto, so no need for rowing skills

would depend on the S4 driver

Default I don't think I gave WOT in first and so no real boost.

I've noticed before that the car doesn't produce positive boost unless I'm WOT. After getting out of 1st, I didn't fall behind much more. Is it possible to modify this SVT?

Default Apparently also a Lightning Concept w/ 500 hp but ...

don't think it is out until 2005 or later.

Estimated 4.5s 0-60
