INFORMATION ON THE SUZUKI ESCUDO !!! This Escudo appears to be the 1996 version (the one found in Gran Turismo 2). The Escudo that appears in Gran Turismo's 3, 4, 5 and 6 is the 1998 version. What's the difference ? The front and sides are pretty much the same, but it's the rear that's the main difference in looks. The 1996 (GT2) Escudo has 2 rear air holes on the back (the Escudo in this video also appears to have the same ones from the game). Other videos on Escudo (when it's red) doesn't have these 2 square dark holes, as the entire rear is opened up, as with the Escudo in Gran Turismo's 3, 4, 5 and 6. Gran Turismo 2 states the car is a Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak Version '96, where's the others Suzuki Escudo Dirt Trial/Pikes Peak '98. The 1996 Escudo is a 2.0 Litre, the 1998 a 2.5 Litre. According to Gran Turismo, both the Escudo's have 981 - 985 HP (this video states the 1996 one has 788 HP though, hmm). Both Escudo's are the same performance wise ! Surely there was a mistake some where here, as 800 PS turns out to be 788 HP, which is the Suzuki Cultus Pikes Peak Versions power. The other mistake is the Japanese man claiming this Escudo is a Twin Engine, but the 1995 Escudo was a Twin Engine. Both 96 and 98 Escudo's are almost 1,000 HP, both are 800 KG in weight, both have 270 km/h restricted top speeds and both Accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 2.5 seconds. In Gran Turismo 6, i tested the Escudo. In Gran Turismo 6, Escudo jumps from Gear 1 to Gear 2 in 1.6 seconds, the Escudo in this video in 1.8 seconds. The game Escudo then gets to Gear 3 in 1.1 seconds, the Escudo in this video, also in 1.1 seconds. The game Escudo then changes to Gear 4 in 1.1 seconds, the one in the video, in 1.2 seconds. The game Escudo then gets to Gear 5 in 1.7 seconds, the Escudo in this video, in 1.2 seconds. From Gear 6 is the big change though. The game Escudo gets to it's final Gear 6 in 2.9 seconds, where's the one in the video, in 1.7 seconds. Overall, it takes the game Escudo 8.4 seconds to final gear from start, and 7 seconds for the real version as seen in the video. The game Escudo takes 2.3 seconds to reach 100 km/h, so maybe perhaps the same or 2.5 seconds for the one in the video ? From @6:01 when it Accelerates, it seems quick. So what speeds was Escudo getting to between @2:18-2:28 in this video ? Let's use the game as an example again ! In Gran Turismo 6, Escudo changes to Gear 2 at 75 km/h, Gear 3 at 110 km/h, Gear 4 at 155 km/h, Gear 5 at 203 km/h and Gear 6 at 256 km/h. Using these, it appears when the Escudo in the video turns to onboard view from 2:18 onwards, it's already doing close to 110 km/h and likely gets to its max speed of 270 km/h before the deceleration begins. From @6:01 in this video, Escudo most likely gets up to 110 km/h before it backs down. Escudo's top speed in Gran Turismo 6 is about 308 km/h (38 over it's actual real speed), so lowering its gear settings can probably make it as the real life version.

Probably Polyphony did the same they did with the Alfa Romeo 155 Touring Car: They made a model of a particular spec racing car but adapted the livery. Despite the GT2 Escudo being modeled after the 1996 V6 2000 Escudo, the livery is the same as the 1998 V6 2500 Escudo.

Tajima-san is very much a forward-thinker. Alongside his Monster Sport operation he owns a multitude of other businesses centering around research and development; nowadays doing a lot of work in electric car technology. He was among the first in Japan to really work on and experiment with aerodynamics. What he was doing then - 20 years ago - reminds me of what the whole time attack scene is in the midst of right now.

Monster Sport references the steering issue with the older pikes peak variants on their website under the pikes peak history. I can only assume maybe the first few pikes peak cars were manual steering rack? Monster sport also changes the tire width through out the years as well.

lol you're probably referring to the video game Escudo from the Gran Turismo games, which were pretty fake, especially Gran Turismo 2. It is possible, now that Formula 1 cars are pretty pathetic (unlike 2004 F1's), Escudo can do 0-60mph in 2.5 seconds, and so can F1's of today (as seen on Alonso's Ferrari F1). But to be fair, Escudo will have to race a 1996 Formula 1, because Escudo is from 96, then we will see Escudo win :). On a Racecourse Escudo has no chance against 96 or todays F1's.
