The best GT5 cars according to stormbringer!

hello all,

thought id make a contribution to the forum.

I love this game and have been trying to find my 4wheel soulmate. So ive been testing them and keeping a record of my performance. By the end of this I'll have my top 10 cars. I think this should help other people too, give you a vague idea of how good a car is before you spend all that hard earned cash on a car that turns out to be crap. so im gonna post my results up here since i havent seen anyone else doing this here.

Note that driver, track, driving line and technique are constant. The only variables here are car tuning setups. which i dont mess with too much. I set downforce on max, car height on minimum and racing soft tyres. TRC =1, ABS = 1. All cars are moded to the max (i.e they cant get anymore difficult) If a car gives me a hard time, i make incremental changes in suspension/lsd (using default as a benchmark) whatever suits me best.

If you want, you could do a lap around the same track with the same car and then compare our time.
lets say you are 2 seconds faster than me in some car. you can assume youre 2 seconds faster on the other cars as well. makes sense to me. whether a car handles better or not is a matter of technique.

I chose Deep forest raceway for the testing ground. This track has alot of nice quick corners. Need a car with good grip to get a good lap time. It doesnt have any looooong straights so top speed doesnt really matter here. (no shortcuts)

Also included is all the power and weight info and ratio (After max modding) and ive added a personal rating in the end there as well. Its my opinion on how the car is overall, handling, acceleration, braking and how much i enjoyed it.
1 = crap, 5 = ok, 10 = great, 15 = Amazing, 17 = super duper kick ass!

43-Raybrig NSX (handles well, is slower than the other NSXs)
44-Yellow Hat Supra (Decent supra, Toms supras handle better, but this one is faster)
45-Eunos SC430 (the only lexus JGTC i thought was enjoyable to drive)
46-Any lexus JGTC (they are all easy to drive, i dont particularly like em)
47-Citroen C4 WRC (wish it was a bit faster, handles great)
48-Citroen GT race car (i love this car, but its not worth the money. The road car is just as good, but heavier. It corners and brakes better than the road car, ofcourse)
49-Epson NSX (the fastest NSX JGTC. Handling/grip isnt as good as the ARTA or takata)
50-Pescarolo courage C60 Peugeot (When buying a pescarolo, buy this one)
51-Lotus Esprit V8 '02 (good road car, will compete with the italia/scuderia)
52-Merc 300SL (while its not very fast, it is fun to drive)
53-BMW Z4 coupe (not bad, ok car, agile)
54-Maserati Turismo S (good car, good handling. a little bit slower than the ferraris)
55-Ferrari California (you can get it for free as a prize car somewhere. Was expecting it to be crap, but its not bad at all. overall good ferrari)
56-Lambo miura (great stats. 872Kg/506Hp. but tough to control. tail happy car. With the right tune and driver this car might be amazing. dont buy it, trade for it. Was going to put it in the "bad buys" but i think she might have potential)
57-Ford GT40'69-This car is tough to drive. The back comes out easy much like the miura. Unpredictable. I'd put it in the bad buys, but I'm sure it has potential (like the miura)
58-Lister Storm-good car if not for it's weight. 1438kg. requires more braking than it's competitors.
59-Ford GT LM race car (pretty good car, it will spin out coming out of corners if not careful)
60-Mugen S2000 (very nice road car. Easy to drive, good grip and handling)
61-Jaguar Etype coupe (tail happy, but fun. Evenly matched with the merc 300sl)
62-Aston Martin Vanquish (decent car. A little lighter, more powerful and a better buy than the DB-9)
63--SLR mclaren (feels too heavy compared to the SLS, cornering isnt as good, I've grown to like it over time)
64-mercedes SL500 (decent car, not very powerful. But drives easy for a road car)

bad cars/buys:

1-Jay Leno (Dont ever buy this from the used store, get it as a prize car in the american championship)
4-veyron (use this car and be ready for highspeed wall scraping, prize car for the turismo championship)
5-Saleen S7 (bad handling, nice novelty item)
6-Ciezeta V16t (ok car, not really worth spending cash moding it)
7-Jeff Gordon Impala#24 (forced to get a one for the nascar race, i dont like it)
8-Shelby Cobra 427'66 (not worth moding at all. BAD braking. prize car in Bspec amateur muscle car)
9-Lexus LFA (just feels inadequate in everyway, acceleration, grip. Handling is ok)
11-Ferrari 599'06 (feels too heavy. handling not worthy of a ferrari, imo.)
12-Option Stream Z (its a 850HP 350z. braking and handling isnt very good. fast acceleration)
13-Mercedes 190E EvoII (the regular version. Underpowered. handling is great! cheap price, ok car. get touring car version)
14-Ferrari SP-1 (a better looking Scuderia, with lower power and more weight. grips about the same. costs 1.5M. not worth it)
15-TVR cerbera Speed 12 (veyron fans should dig this car. 1027HP/1020kg. Fast and a bit more controllable than a veyron)
16-Gillet Vertigo (Fast beast of a car, just needs more grip, another car for veyron fans)
17-Suzuki Cappucino RM (i dont know who buys this car in the game, or in real life. Its sloooow. good handling, i guess)
18-C60 Hybride Judd RC'05 (has the worst handling/grip compared to the other LMPs ive tested. it has enough power though)
19-Audi R10 TDI race car (slow compared to other LMPs. But does have good grip. Hardly worth the price. careful coming out of corners. Do yourself a favor and buy the 908)
20-Art morrison vette (looks good, wont win you any races with similar stat cars, i didnt like it)
21-Ford Mustang Transcammer (probably good for driving around in circles, not a good car for deepforest or turns)
22-Tesla Roadster (that stupid george clooney owns one, enough said?)
23-Lambo Murch LP640'09 (get the SV, this one isnt as good)
24-Merc SL55 AMG (just weighs too much = more braking. SLR mclaren is a better buy)
25-Ferrari F430 (no adjustable downforce on this car. she corners accordingly. scuderia is better anyday)
26-Viper SRT10 (>900 Hp, fast! low grip. need to brake early to keep her in line)
27-AC cars 427 S/C'66 (like the shelby cobra 427, weighs more and a little more powerful, hectic braking and cornering)

Will test more.

Keep driving

********************************

I say:

Grip is much more important than power on a track like this one. More grip results in less time braking: decreasing your lap times by alot.
Amuse S2000, NSX-R prototype, Castrol Toms Supra are a good example.

The more powerful and/or bulkier a car, the more unforgiving it becomes. vipers, lambos are a good example. Veyron an extreme example.
you spend alot of time braking with these cars and that will definately increase your lap time. They can only make up time in acceleration and long top speed straights.

Slowest: Audi R10 (lowest top speed as well)
Worst handling: C60 Hybride
Best handling/grip: R89, Sauber, 787b, 908, R10, R8'01, 905, toyota 7
Best overall: 908, sauber, 787b, Minolta, R89C, BMW LMR, R8'01, Pescarolo C60 peugeot
Personal fave: Sauber, 787b, 905, R8'01
Best sound: 787B

1-The sauber is my favourite. period.
2-The 908 is a great car. best buy for anyone. Easy to drive and handles really well.
3-Toyota GT one- fastest and with great handling. very responsive. Great car. Can reach >400km/hr without draft!
4-C60 hybride is the worst out of the bunch. Powerful but lacks in grip.
5-Minolta: she actually gave me my fastest lap (3:08:454) but got disqualified in the end (chicane). Once you get used to her handling, she performs amazingly!
6-Nissan R89C-I think shes better than the R92CP. grips better.
7-Audi R10-not really worth it. Its got great grip/handling but she will get out accelerated by any of the above. Torque is way too high at too low an rpm for my taste.
8-Audi R8-This is the Audi one should get. Faster, but grips a bit worse than the R10. but its nothing you cant get used to.
9-Peugeot 905-brilliant car! amazing grip and handling. low top speed
10- Audi R8'01-i feel this one is better than the oreca
11-Pescarolo courage C60 peugeot-the best pescarolo, imo and overall good LMP

Best: Zonda LM, R390Gti, Ford GT LM spec II
Worst: They are all pretty good. I personally didnt like the Audi TT. Mclaren gave me the hardest time.
Best handling: Ford GT LM spec II, Zonda LM, GT-R concept LM, Xanavi GT-R
Fastest: R390, CLK-GTR, Mclaren
Slower: maybe Jaguar XJ220 (needs a hundred more kittens for her to compete with the viper. good grip)
Best Grip: Ford GT, Zonda, Both GT-Rs,
NSX vs GT-R: GT-R
Best overall car: Ford GT LM spec II, Zonda LM

I didnt think the FTO or Impreza would be able to keep up, but their lap time was surprising. just a second away from way more powerful touring cars. The impreza shouldve beaten the FTO but it didnt happen.

Slowest: Xanavi Z
Best Handling: Calsonic, Xanavi GT-R, Xanavi Z
Worst Handling: Woodone (comparatively)
Personal Favourite: YellowHat, Xanavi GT-R, Xanavi Z
Special Mention: the Xanavi Z will probably beat all of the above in a track like cote de azur. Very agile.

4)--Raybrig NSX-----------1100---598----1.81---1:32:535-------298---------8

All NSXs are a little tougher to handle than GT-Rs. But are way more fun to drive.

Fastest: Epson
Slowest: Raybrig
Best handling: Takata Dome, Arta

4)-Denso SC430-----------1100---641----1.69---1:32:185-------297---------7

ALL Lexus's are boring to me. They are easy to drive, very predictable, and dont feel very fast. They drive like they dont have any soul. except maybe the Eunos. All lexus's need atleast 100 to 200 more hamsters to make em exciting.

Fastest: Petronas Toms
Slowest: Bandai, Denso
Best handling: They all handle easy.
Personal Fave: Eunos, just because it handles slightly worse. Makes it a tiny bit enjoyable....(yawn)

----------------------------------------Toyota--------------------------------------

All supras kick ass!

Fastest: Woodone toms (fastest JGTC, with Fastest lap time, stats compare to GT-Rs)
Slowest: Castrol toms'97
Best handling: both Castrol Toms
Worst handling: Woodone toms (because of its high Hp), Au cerumo
Personal Fave: both Castrol toms, Woodone Toms (just because she beat everyone else)

Best Handling/Grip: Tough to decide, all the 4wd cars are great. Lancer super rally, corolla, focus
Worst Handling/Grip:Both MRs, much tougher to handle (Maxi, Stratos)
Personal Faves: Corolla, Focus WRC, Maxi, lancer super rally, rs200
Dissapointing: Impreza WRC (impreza rally'03 is better)

Rally cars are amazing on asphalt. Probably the best choice for <500Hp races. 4WD cars give very consistent performance and laptimes. All cars tested with a wheel.

Thanks to all the guys who've donated, lent or traded their cars to help make this list. You guys made making this list that much easier, and give me motivation to continue. cheers 👍

********************************

Dont take my ratings and comments too seriously. The only way to find out whether a car is good for you is for you to test it out for yourself.
My ratings/laptimes are a result of my own skill level, experience, personal preferences and bias. I try to be as objective as i can.
If you do notice something that should not be, bring it to my attention and i'll look into it and hopefully resolve any mistakes/faults.

I didnt create this thread to incite competition. If all you want to say/imply is that you are a better driver, dont bother, and please dont PM me with that sort of a comment. However, if you accompany this info with your tuning setup and tips etc, id be interested in checking it out. Otherwise, keep it to yourself.

********************************

To get the most out of this game, you must get a Racing wheel. Your driving will improve and you'll enjoy yourself alot more. If u use a controller, youre really missing out. I recently got myself a G27 and it works great. Im enjoying the game more than ever.

It will improve your laptimes. check out my FGT lap time in deepforest. there is one with the controller and one with the wheel. (5 second difference)

********************************

Listening to jazz while racing will decrease your lap times by atleast 3 seconds! Tis the power of jazz!

********************************

Do you play call of duty or any other fps games? Here's a tip on how to use gt5 to improve your aim. Btw I play on 10 sensitivity and my k/d ratio has increased from 0.9 to 1.5-3.0 since I started using GT to improve my game and I get at least 18 to 30 kills in TDM now. Highest tdm kills ever: 49. Highest K/D ratio: 44

1-get yourself an X1
2-change right analog stick to steering control
3-R1 = acc, L1 = brake, set manual gears to whichever buttons you feel comfy
4-turn on skid, driving line, abs= 1, trc = 1 or 2, no active steering or asm.
5-load Suzuka east
6-do x laps in 1st gear (no braking)
7-do x laps in 2nd gear (no braking)
8-continue until 4th gear (no braking)

Racing line is very important, and so is smooth movements with steering. Try to drive exactly as the racing line suggests. This helps you train your thumbs sensitivity.

9-try other tracks (they all help, Suzuka east is the best imo, i do nurburgring pretty often)

After doing this for 1/2 hr or an hour a day or so for a several days, play cod, incrementally increase your sensitivity, and watch your aim and looking around movements become super precise. I know it helped me become a much better player. Hope it does the same for other COD fans. Kontrol freeks help immensely too.

It's so funny you have the same nick! You need to test the Minolta race car!

The SLS and mclaren f1 are two of my favs as well.

hah, i saw u here in the forums earlier, was thinking the same thing.
I will be testing the minolta tomorrow.

Looks like your list is road cars so far, you should keep it separate from Race Cars if you do happen to test them around the same track. There is no comparison to the times you can put up in the old Group C cars.

No 787B?

Very cool, but there's one car that will whoop every car there. Get your hands on a Mazda Furai. (B-Spec N-RA Roadster Event) The thing is unbelievable. Also wondering where the Ford GT and Nissan GT-R are, but I'll give it some time.

Find it funny my 300bhp Lotus RM can lap faster than a 1200+bhp veyron.

What about a fully tuned Audi R8 V10? Mine has 890hp an weighs about 1250kg

my veyron only has 1096 hp at the most what am i doing wrong?

Ecchi-BANZAII!!

Tried changing the oil?

i have some cars id like to add to this list, im liking your idea hopefully my driving is accurate to your driving times. will post tonight.

i agree with the SLS being a great car and the Veyron an absolute pig to drive.

Will test the GT, GTR, RUFs, JeffGordon today along with the formula turismo, minolta and others. Should be able to add 10 cars a day. dont have a 787b

Man, i loved the R8 after tuning. what a great car.

Your Zonda R is down on HP. The max is actually about 956.

Another 80 hp might be the difference to get it on the top of the list. It's a really, really fast car. It also depends on the setup.

I think the only cars faster are the Formula cars, the Group C cars, and the LMP cars.

Ill check it out and give it a redo.

Faster lap time doesnt necessarily mean an enjoyable drive. The veyron is a good example. Im looking forward to seeing how the race cars compare with each other once i get em. its gonna be fun.

The italia is a good car, i won alot of races with it. I didnt like its handling, grip and recovery, after i got the Scuderia. The scuderia is a overall better car to get, imo
The italia does drive better than the enzo, ill give it that.

Test out the Peugeot 908 hdi fap lm race car. It has great speed and aerodynamics.

Man, i really want to test it asap. problem is ive been spending all my cash on roadcars and mods. Im pretty much at $0 at the moment. Have to do some serious farming.

Am thinking about trading some of my cars for race cars.
0ff the top of my head, I have a '53 corvette, Zonda C12s'00 and a RUF ctr2 up for trade.
I have plenty more rare, collectible cars, will add a list later.
If anyones interested, PM me.

Im dissapointed, you should try the MINOLTA, i tried for my first time yesterday, and omg it drives super good.

I agree, The minolta is amazing. Im expecting it to give me a laptime atleast 4 to 5 seconds faster than the Ford GT LM.

I will test it as soon as i get more race cars to compare it against .

Strom have/are you planning to try the Lexus LFA? I just like getting other opinions on cars because sometimes some different perspective can shed new light.
