The Whirlwind Sport[2] (ホワールウィンド・スポーツ[3] Howārwindo Supōtsu?, lit. Whirlwind Sports (Car)) is a vehicle that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is Miles "Tails" Prower's personal racing car, specially created by Dodon Pa for Tails to let him participate in his Grand Prix competition.

Description[]

Personalized specifically for Tails, the Whirlwind Sport has a paint job that resembles Tails' color scheme, particularly yellow with white markings. The body build of the Whirlwind Sport also resembles that of the Whirlwind S7 from Sonic Drift, Tails' previous vehicle from Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, as well as Tails' favorite car, the Lotus Seven.[4]

Like other cars in Team Sonic Racing, its appearance can be customized with different paint jobs, Performance Parts and decals. Its horn can also be changed.

The Whirlwind Sport's base stats, from Team Sonic Racing.

In Team Sonic Racing, the Whirlwind Sport appears as Tails' car, specially created by Dodon Pa for Tails. During the events of the game, the Whirlwind Sport was one of the cars Dodon Pa gave Tails and his friends so they could compete in his Grand Prix competition. Tails would afterward use it during the races and challenges he participated in. However, the Whirlwind Sport was eventually destroyed when the heroes had to leave it aboard the crashing Final Fortress. Fortunately, Dodon Pa promised to replace it with a new one.

In this game, like Tails' prior Tornado Racer and his other vehicle combined, the Whirlwind Sport's basic statistics boast high base acceleration and handling, though low base top speed and boost unlike the Tornado Racer, with only a moderate defense stat to top it off. However, its statistics, as well as its artistic design, can be modified by replacing its parts.

The Whirlwind Sport has the following exclusive Performance Parts that can be used to modify it:
