The Ryback Thunder (Demolition) is a truck that is featured in Split/Second. It is a special version of the original Thunder that was used in the cut game mode called Demolition.

## Description

Since it is based off of its lifted brother, this version of the Thunder is based on the 2009 Dodge Ram, but since it takes the appearance of a Ute and having low ground clearance, it is based on the 2009 Dodge Ram R/T.

Although it appears unfinished, it shares similarities to the original Thunder but has noticeable changes. For starters, the light cluster is split into and includes a small LED strip in the upper housing while the lower half has three circular bulbs inside. The upper grille is separated into three sections while the lower grille is one section of its own. On the lower sides of the front bumper, there are mesh gratings and on the left one, includes a tow hook.

Unlike the original Thunder, this version includes a gas cap behind the driver side door. The vehicle includes carbon fiber mirrors and a shorten chrome roll bar behind the cabin. The truck bed is now covered and at the very end is a small spoiler. The main difference is shown in the rear fascia and since it is no longer a pickup truck, the entire rear fascia is closed off.

The taillight housings are covered by a louver that spans across its entirety. It features two circular taillights with each one being different sizes. A red tow hook is present on the left side of the rear bumper and on it, features double exhaust pipes that are staggered, matching the taillight design,

The truck comes with unique 7-spoke alloy rims, with prominent *Split/Second* tires and red center lock caps.

Although the truck cannot be obtained through normal gameplay, it can be painted in a range of colors. These colors come from the beta version, where all vehicles have their signature paintjob, plus 8 additional colors shared across every vehicle.

The Thunder (Demolition) has **9** colors:

* **Dark Granite/Black** (stock)
* **Red**
* **Light Yellow**
* **Blue**
* **Grey**
* **Green**
* **Gold**
* **Light Blue**
* **White**

## Performance

The truck cannot be accessed under normal circumstances. However, it is still functional.

From a standstill, the truck has sub-average acceleration that surpasses the first few trucks in Class C and the Thunder, but that is where the similarities end. From there, the truck's speed slowly climbs and quickly shows that it is no slouch.

The speed difference alone can rival vehicles within the lower tier of Class A. When cornering, it can take long and slightly sharper bends without losing an ounce of speed, cornering better than all trucks in game. During heavy cornering, the truck will corner slightly similar to the Titan but can easily accelerate out of a sharp corner or hairpin.

Against powerplays is about the same as the Thunder and trucks in Class A with having great strength when faced with shockwaves. Its only weakness relies in its drift. When cornering at very high speeds, the slightest overcorrection will send the truck into a sideways drift where the back-end pokes out much further than normal, unless counter steered to stabilize the truck. During heavy drifting, the back swings out furthermore to where it loses speed quite a bit, but it can be maintained.

Caution is advised if the player decides to turn left and right repeatedly, otherwise it will send the truck into a "crab-drift".

* The Boss Vehicle in the Demolition game mode has a different handling file compared to the one that the player can use.
* The truck cannot receive debris scuffs or scrapes from collisions and prolonged driving.
	+ It does however have crumble points like all vehicles.
* Although the colors are hidden, the Elite Vehicles and the Truck all share the same color selection.
