In addition to its already impressive speed, the R88 also has KERS, allowing the driver to increase their speed even further by activating the boost, in a similar manner to the Lectro and the Vindicator. In Open Wheel Races, however, wing setups do not have effect on the vehicle, as it resets downforce values. Depending on the front and rear wing setups, one is able to provide either lower downforce to increase speed or higher downforce to provide better cornering abilities.

Its sound is a lower-pitched variation of the engine sound from the Deveste Eight, albeit with a slight change.īoth the R88 and the PR4 are known to have different downforce values in Freemode. The R88 is powered by a V10 engine, with intakes that appear to be double-barrel carburetors/throttle bodies. This can result in more understeer as the car loses more traction because of the missing parts, especially if the spoiler is gone.ĭue to the immense downforce, the R88 can also drive on walls, even ones that are slightly curved outwards, and even ceilings if the player angles the car correctly, especially in the Los Santos Storm Drain, where there are inclines. Unlike other vehicles, the R88 damage absorption will not result in deformation but instead the body kit falling off, exposing the engine and base frame. It appears to have lower top speed and acceleration compared to the PR4, though remains relatively similar. The downside of using this vehicle, however, is that the driver will be unable to use their weapons at all, risking the player getting attacked and not being able to return fire. At high speeds, the vehicle will get a slight understeer when attempting tight turns but this is mitigated through simple use of brakes. The R88 is largely similar to the PR4, having fair handling and excellent braking. There appears to be a digital display below the dials. Its interior uses the traditional blue analogue dials based on the Sultan dials, along with buttons found around the panel and the steering wheel. Its engine reuses the same "Dinka Racing Division" badges found on the PR4, but using the corresponding manufacturer's name instead. The vehicle is painted with the primary colour, while the surfaces of the wings are painted in a secondary colour. Also, similar to vehicles like the Drift Tampa or the Hotring Sabre, the R88 features the use of racing slicks for the wheels, along with its own custom "Race" wheels. The entire underside of the vehicle is carbon plated. The R88 features a narrow, low-profile design, having the distinctive rounded nose with the small dual wings on front, an open driver compartment, large side intakes and the medium-sized rear wing with the single tail light. The R88 seems to take inspiration from various race cars of the 1980s, but predominantly the Lotus 97T while featuring the distinctive nose design of the Lotus 88.
