Roadster is the placeholder name given to one of the vehicles from Carmageddon TV, before it was cancelled. It belonged to a driver with an America-themed outfit.
Design
The Roadster has a unique body shape with two long "arms" at its sides extending over the car's front, similar to classic roadster vehicles. Spikes are placed at ends of these arms, as well as on the car's grill and its back end. The cockpit is placed near the rear, and the driver would enter and exit by opening the top of the cockpit.
The design of its main livery reflects its driver, being themed around the American flag. The car is numbered 23, and is plastered with various sponsors, some of them taken from real life brands, such as "No Fear" and "Rusty". They were most likely only there as placeholders.
Driver

The driver is muscular blonde man with sunglasses and America-themed armor. Because of his likeness to real life show wrestling characters, it is possible he is Wrestler mentioned in design doc.
Trivia
- A concept art shows the Roadster with a different livery. As stated in the Game Design Doc, cars could be customized in many different ways, making it possible that the car was planned to have such paintjob as well.[1]
