Trivia[]
- Crimson Fury is one of the four vehicles in TM:H-O that did not appear in Twisted Metal 2, the others being newcomers Cousin Eddy, ATV and Tower Tooth.
- Out of those, Crimson Fury is the only returning vehicle.
- Crimson Fury has a completely different design in the PS2 port of Head-On when compared to its original PSP model. However, this other design is also included in the PSP version. After Crimson Fury has been damaged enough, the model switches from the Enzo to that of the Diablo.
- The Diablo version of the car is also seen in a very early build of Head-On from January 29th 2004, over a year before the release of the original game on PSP. It's unknown what caused them to go back to this design.
