Road King in Flatout 2

Road King is a Street class car in FlatOut 2 and FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage.

It is the second best car in terms of top speed in both FlatOut 2 and Ultimate Carnage losing only slightly to the Bullet GT. Its acceleration up to 180km/h is the same as the Speedevil, but a much lighter weight makes it a very a unstable car, easily disrupted by both debris or small collisions with other cars. It is still heavy, but its low strength makes the Road King somewhat fragile. It has a very powerful nitro boost that can get the Road King to top speed very quickly.

It suffers from lack of grip at low speeds (not as much as the Bullet GT) but is fairly responsive at high speeds. It has a tight turning radius that allows it to corner quickly, but be careful with the accelerator at the end of a corner as this car tends to oversteer with ease.

The redline sits at mere 6.000 rpm, compensated by the big block V8 engine.
