Introducing the Maximum Tune series. Based on the manga/Anime/Arcade Game “Wangan Midnight,” these cars are built for maximum top speed. I’ve got five thought up so far.

BlueBird is a “Cursed” 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird (#1468) owned by Jim Prower. It has a history of killing owners and damaging other cars, especially European cars. Perfect ride for Jim, huh? Yeah, Jim bought it after seeing it languishing away in a scrap yard…It’s become his new main car, as the Charger is now a D1 Street Legal machine. The paint scheme is similar to a LNER A4 streamlined locomotive, due to an improper mix of B4 Blue used when the car was built.
