Description[]

Because the heavy load (engine) is mounted behind the driving wheel, it takes a lot of traction at acceleration. I accelerate a lot regardless of the gradient. Moreover, the highest speed can be expected with the torque characteristic with the margin of the large displacement car. On the other hand, because there is some sense of stability in the corner, skill is required for cornering in the high speed range. This instability will lead to mobility if you can get on.

Triva[]

  • Due to licensing issues, the 3.8 RS, along with all other Gemballa Cars, only appears in the Japanese versions of Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune. Tatsuya Shima's personal vehicle was replaced by the Nissan Fairlady Z Version S (350Z).
  • When transferred to Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 4, the 3.8 RS will become the RUF CTR until Maximum Tune 5DX+, where the CTR will become the Porsche 911 Turbo S (930) upon transfer to Maximum Tune 6.
    • Oddly enough, the RUF RCT, which the 3.8 RS shares its base with, didn't debut until Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 5DX.
