Overview

Now as they believe themselves to be the only defenders of Pierre Belmondo's vision, the American team have produced a significantly heavier craft, intending to "rip apart anyone who betrayed Belmondo's ideals". This weight comes from the increased shielding and one of the most powerful weapons systems on the circuit, whilst maintaining the speed and handling of its predecessor.

But with these changes, along with its reduced acceleration, it may seem to be the next logical step to take after racing with the G-Tech REVVER. In fact, Pascale Rouser's modifying limits are the same as that of Roberto Sergio's. So, a fairly mid-range craft.

Pascale Rouser's craft top speed, brake force and stablility can be modified one level higher than her teammate's.

Trivia

• This is one of the two ships in the game to feature weapon control hardware from A-Com Weapon Control Systems, the other being the Van-Über ZR-320.
• This ship is one of the two ships in the series with an asymmetrically placed cockpit design, the other being the Assegai F7200 ship in Wipeout 3.
  • In case of the Auricom T-808 ship, the cockpit appears to be placed offset to the right.
• Canonically, Pascale Rouser, using this ship, won both the Teams' Championship and the Pilots' Championship in the 2168 F9000 season. This would also be Auricom's final season in the F9000, however.
  • During her time as an Auricom pilot, Natasha Belmondo won the inaugural season of the F9000 in 2156 using this ship.
  • This makes this ship one of the few ships in the series known to have won at least one championship in the series' canon.
• The ship's name "T-808" may be a reference to the sci-fi/action franchise Terminator.
  • It may also be a reference to the Roland TR-808, a drum synthesizer that rose to prominence with its usage in early electronic dance.
