The very special Caterham Super Seven Jonathan Palmer Evolution from 1992 is a custom car that was projected to be part of Stunts to fit short and "twisted" tracks of the game.
This car is allowed to use in ZakStunts 2022 season.
Development
The creation of this car was somehow difficult by the fact that this car is a highly customized car in real world and because of it's rarity, only 50 exemplars were made. Some compromises were take in terms of color schemes and dashboard layout, mainly because there was no official brochure, but in the end, details like the original lime yellow background of the speedometer and rev counter, the small windshield with transparency and the right hand drive steering wheel was reproduced.
On 8 of April 2021 the car was released, but rapidly has been updated so a 1.1 version released in the next day for speedometer and grip adjustment purposes.
On 1 of May 2021 a version 1.1 mod 1.0 was made after the creation of new custom feature that allows using custom color of needle in speedometer and rev counter on Stunts, which inproved the readability by changing the default white needles to black.
Performance
The natural lightness of this car allows great 0-100MPH marks and at the same time very effective breaking, it's a characteristic which made the real world model broke the 0-100-0MPH record when released in 1992 (relegating Ferrari F40).
The base specification of this car model uses uses a 5 "long ratio" speed gearbox like one of several options available for this model, this choice allows it to get a better top speed (~145mph) comparatively over a 6 "short ratio" gear box (~125mph).
Advice: This "feather weight" car its prone to "flying carptets" and "fast landings".
