The 1969 Plymouth Road Runner is a high-performance model which was built by the Plymouth division of the Chrysler Corporation and is part of the Road Runner series.
Although Plymouth already had the GTX as a high-performance model, it was seen as moving away from its muscle car roots. Therefore, Plymouth went back to the drawing board and the Road Runner was designed.
The name "Road Runner" comes from the Looney Tunes cartoon character Road Runner which Plymouth paid $50,000 to Warner Brothers to use.

Overall Performance[]
Achievable Classes | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
The Plymouth Road Runner has a stock top speed of 216 km/h (134 mph) which is very low for Class C cars and even an average stock top speed for Class D cars. The acceleration is good and features a very strong nitrous output. The handling is good and responsive and is capable of doing high speed cornering.
For Pursuit Outrun and Team Escape the Road Runner can perform very well. It is able to go through roadblocks fairly well and it is capable of dodging Rhinos very well. However, due to its light weight, colliding with roadblocks and police vehicles (especially rhinos) are not recommended. Its strong acceleration, however, allows it to quickly regain any lost speed.
