TRD DRW12 Gr.C (Version: 0.9)
This is a fictional 1989 Group C car. It's powered by a 5 liter twin-turbo W12 engine generating almost 900 hp when running at full boost. Built to race toe to toe against Sauber's mighty C9, it's no doubt both cars share some similarities such as a very torquey and powerful twin turbo engine and optimized aerodynamics for high speed. The lack of power against the C9 is compensated with being around 15-20 kg lighter than its competition and a very solid and reliable engine, although a very rearward weight bias tends to make the car unstable when cornering at low speeds.
The engine's design, although heavier than a V12 is much more compact (allowing for better optimization of underbody aerodynamics) and has a lower centre of gravity.
The LM package, although it increases the car's weight a bit due to the larger tail section, it helps reducing a lot of drag (obviously at the cost of rear-end downforce) which, along with the suppression of the front dive planes and cooling louvres, help the car reach speeds of up and over 380 km/h.
