One of three Hotring Racer variants in GTA San Andreas.
The Hotring Racer is an unlockable race car featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Description
Overview
The Hotring Racer is a fairly fast vehicle, and is used in the Stadium challenges in both GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas. It can be obtained in GTA Vice City by completing the Sunshine Autos import missions, and in GTA San Andreas it is unlocked by beating the 8-Track stadium challenge. In GTA San Andreas, its top speed reaches 220 km/h, making this car one of the second fastest vehicles of the game. Each variant of the Hotring Racer features well known businesses as sponsors that appear in Vice City, Liberty City and San Andreas.
Design and variants
There are three variants of the Hotring Racer, however, they all perform exactly the same. They all resemble cars from the late '80s/early '90s, presumably based on NASCAR stock-cars: The first variant (internally named "hotring") vaguely resembles a Ford Taurus, the second (internally named "hotrina") is a Chevrolet Camaro, the third (internally named "hotrinb") has design aspects from a Chevrolet Monte Carlo (rear side window) and an Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme (the grille). The "hotring" in GTA Vice City noticeably lacks the roll cages and netting of the "hotrina" and "hotrinb", an inconsistency partially rectified for the GTA San Andreas rendition with the addition of netting.
Under normal circumstances, the "hotring" is the only version of the Hotring Racer available for the player to drive (during Hotring races and at Sunshine Autos) and has only one car number available, #27 in GTA Vice City and #21 in GTA San Andreas, while the "hotrina" and "hotrinb" are only available via cheats or mods, such as the use of a garage editor or trainers and each have 4 different car numbers.
- In Vice City, the hotrina may spawn with the numbers #21, #34, #56 or #78, while the hotrinb may be marked with the numbers #14, #28, #65 or #69.
- In San Andreas, the hotrina can be numbered #14, #52, #73 or 96, while the hotrinb may obtain the numbers #07, #36, #65 or #86.
