Land Rover Range Stormer ’04

This car is super heavy and looks pretty cool. Normally I wouldn’t use it for any races, but the latest seasonal event is at Brands Hatch, 550pp, and UK only cars. I didn’t have any cars that made the cut, but I did have this one that comes in at 549pp with almost all parts installed. It is super heavy and has a ton of understeer, but is a lot of fun to drive. It took many laps of practising before I finally got gold, but it was worth it. Beating seasonal events is not that fun when you easily smoke them. Cars like this make the events much more fun because you need a lot more skill in order to win. I came so close, but always so far until one lap I beat it easily. My advice for winning is to make sure you brake sooner than later, coaster around the corner apex and onto the gas once you are straight on the exit. This takes practise, but one you nail it the car is quick for its size. It could be used at other tracks too, but Brands Hatch is its ideal setup. The transmission final gear may need to be raised if you want to take it to larger tracks.
