History

Attributes

Hover / Flight Capabilities

Like any hover car, the Argonaut II is equipped with a set of six magneto drives in order to perform verticle take-off and landing feats, as well as fly.

Speed

As with all racing-class hover cars, the Argonaut II is capable of reaching speeds that the average land-based car could not, easily up to a few hundred km/h and near to Mach 1.

Reinforced Cockpit

Due to the extreme speeds race cars fly at, the Argonaut II posseses a heavily reinforced cockpit that can withstand a lot of damage should the car crash. Of course, this is not full-proof, nor intended to be a primary safety measure, as the cockpit also contains ejection seats for the driver and navigator too use, and so the reinforced cockpit is a back-up precaution should they fail to eject in time.
