WEEK 7

Wraith

Its name is Wraith, but it is hard to stop thinking about it as of a Porsche 911. There is no doubt that the 911 was the model for Wraith. It is the most beautiful car in the game and Deliverator’s only real opponent. It is a deadly racer ready to tear other cars apart with its two strong machine guns. Mad Mac, Nasty Nick, Motor Mary and Matt Miler, they all know how to use advantages of this car. It costs $25,000 but it is definitely worth the price. Even though it is just little over half of what you would pay for Deliverator, you are still able to compete against it. Getting all the upgrades as soon as possible is, however, strongly recommended in order to get the maximum out of this beast. There are four tire upgrades available which, if purchased, help keep the car firmly on the road at high speeds. Stock speed is 115mph. 130mph is what you get after applying three engine upgrades. The biggest disadvantage is the cost of additional weapons, rocket fuel and sabotage. All of that costs $7,375 while for Shrieker it is just $2,245. That is 229 % growth. Such cost growth cannot be seen anywhere else in the game. Complex and Utopia are the most suitable tracks for Wraith.

 

Deliverator

It is the very best car you can buy and race in the game. Every single aspect of this car points out that it is a supercar. There are no compromises. Design strictly follows the purpose of this racer. Full range of 12 upgrades is available. Two machine guns with brutal fire power want to destroy everything in front of them. Stock speed of 140mph. Initial cost of $45,000 may not be that of a supercar but you are going to need additional $135,105 for the upgrades. Tire upgrades, as for any other car in DR, are the most crucial. No tire upgrades, no proper grip. It is as simple as that. Superiority of Deliverator also depends on the difficulty level on which the game played. Higher the difficulty, less superior the Deliverator is. Maximum speed of 160mph is reachable after applying four engine upgrades. Deliverator’s stock armor is considerably stronger than those of other cars. One mine causes 5-6% of damage while fully upgraded armor can absorb up to 4% and therefore, leaving only a 2-3% damage. Items at the underground market are very expensive for this car. You can borrow $12,000 from the Loanshark but you have to pay $18,000 back. There are actually three versions of Deliverator in the game. The 1^st one is the regular Deliverator you can purchase. Second is the Deliverator of Duke Nukem. His Deliverator has additional armor and therefore it is twice as hard to eliminate Duke. The 3^rd version belongs to Adversary, the final boss, whom you need to defend in order to become the King of Death Rally. Adversary’s Deliverator has a jet engine with visible turbine and pair of gatling guns. You cannot drive the two latter mentioned versions.
