Red Vixen

Don't let the gorgeous looks decieve you!

Say hello to this beauty, Red Vixen! Red Vixen is a highly modified P6C Super Merlin, modified specifically for the Mod-Class Bandit Tournament. I made two varaints of this: This stripped, weight reduced, maxed out power+handling version and a realistic reno-style air racer. I was thinking of calling her "Reno Raider II" because of it's resemblance to my first air racer, but that deserves it's own specific airplane. She'll do +900MPH and can top out at 1000MPH (yes I know a prop-plane can't break Mach 1, but hey this is SP lol)

Reliability: 80%-100%
Average Course Speed: +900MPH
Average CLEAN Time: 1:30
Average Time with 1 Missed Ring: 1:54-2:00
Average Time with 2 Missed Rings: 2:18

    Sure but I can't build anything until June 16th. Between now and June 15th I still have school and I'm tied with a bunch of final projects, tests, and assignments, so at the moment I can't build anything.

    Lol. When I look back, I wish I raced this plane instead of the black phantom. The black phantom could have easily been used in a non-modded race since its a basic design, but the Red Vixen relies on modded parts. The next modded tournament I'll definitely race this beauty. Also thanks for the upvotes and spotlights!

    Thanks for the upvote! Maybe the next mod tournament I'll have Red Vixen race.

    I've officially decided to scrap Silver Bullet from the race due to it's reliability problems with the AI, (But the design will be recycled for future designs of mine such as other air racers and fighters) and Red Vixen is out of the race as well.

    I developed another racer that will be racing instead of Red Vixen. This new racer has 95-100% reliability and always gets 1:20-1:22 on the clock, without missing a ring. However I'm keeping my new racer unlisted & hidden for now until after the race. The new racer is called Black Phantom.

    Yes that was the inspiration. The turtle deck, small bubble canopy, clipped wings, and aerodynamic prop hub give it away. However it's unrealistically fast (to give it an edge in the bandit race). I've made a realistic version of this but haven't uploaded it yet. Also thanks for the upvote!
