[ATG003]  THE CARS
-------------------

The game has balanced out the cars and seperated them into three diffrent
categories, each has its own strength and weaknesses, each has its own
allure to different driving styles. Cars are measured by its TOP SPEED,
ACCELERATION and HANDLING.


TOP SPEED: This is the max speed the car is capable of when cruising at
           max gear. This is very useful for sprint and checkpoint races
           where there are less corners but more straight paths.

ACCELERATION: This is how fast the car attains speed. If your car can
           accelerate from 0-100 KM/h in a few seconds, you have one hell
           of a machine. This is best applied for tight, technical courses
           requiring hard braking and quick exit. Very useful aspect in
           Tight circuit, canyon sprints, duels and drift races.

HANDLING:  This is how good the car responds when you steer it. A good
           handling attribute allows the car to hug the corners without
           losing to much speed, and also allows quick turning without
           throwing the machine off the track.  



TUNERS   ---    These are the most popular and basic cars in the street 
                racing scene. Mostly IMPORTS from Japan, these cars are
                known for their stability and wide array of customization
                options. Great handling and good acceleration makes it
                a good choice for drifters and technical races.

PRICE: LOW
TOP SPEED: POOR
ACCELERATION: AVERAGE
HANDLING: GREAT



MUSCLES  ---    Muscles are known for their monstrous engines and 
                dominating presence. Considered as the pride of American
                racing, muscle cars are built with speed and acceleration
                in mind. Most popular muscles are classics that are heavily
                tuned, further living up its reputation. The downside is
                that when controlling muscles, you need to countersteer
                a lot, specially when entering corners. The weight of the
                car makes the weight shifting too unstable, which can make
                you lose control if not careful.


PRICE: AVERAGE
TOP SPEED: AVERAGE
ACCELERATION: GREAT
HANDLING: POOR



EXOTICS  ---    When speaking of Exotics cars, the first thing that enters
                our minds would be those flat, wide and futuristic looking
                designs capable of bursting out of your eyesight. Well, what
                I think about exotics are these are the rich kid's toys. 
                Exotics excel in almost everything, making them basically
                the best cars around. If you have the cash that is...


PRICE: HIGH
TOP SPEED: GREAT
ACCELERATION: GREAT
HANDLING: GREAT



With that said, I still prefer TUNER cars. I love them better than Muscles
or Exotics. Well, I just love them. :)
