Maybe the speed 6. Or..i dunno. Does the cheap Zonda fit within 150G?
I looked at the Speed 6, but I don't know that there is enough cash left over to make it stick to the road. And I think the Zonda is really expensive.
Have you run the Skyline yet? That one should be able to really perform. I did ok in the Impressa (4:43.999) and the MR-2 (4:44.397). Those two times could probably be improved on with some skilled driving. I still need to take the RX-7 RZ for a run. After all, it is one of my top ten favorite cars.
Run that Z06 again - maybe you can knock a couple seconds off. It should have picked up a few more horse power if you ran it enough.

I've changed my purchase plans on my recent few cars. I've been getting full suspension and engine effeciency before I go for power. After all, what good is power without control?
I was looking at the 3000GT last night. I ran pretty good times, not competetive but good, but what I was surprised by was the fact it could handle a Stage 4 Turbo ... and I could afford it with the 150,000 limit! But even with all the stability and traction upgrades I did to the car, it still wouldn't stay on the road with low power.
I'm going to give the RX-7 a run tonight. Maybe that'll give me a sub 4:30

Ok, heres my times.
Skyline gtr vspec (something like that) with 148,000 spent and running ssoft tires and about 510 hp ran a 4:54 time as my best.
I only ran two laps on all my tries and could do better, just dont have the time to really get the thing down.
Good times ppl and a diverse selection of cars.

Cool man, glad someone else has chimed in. I like having different cars because more people can get interested. I get tired of everyone racing the same thing and one person running off to the lead. This gives others a chance to 'belly up to the table' with what they've got.

Count me in! This should be interesting.... 
FWIW, I have gotten an ITR around CS in 4'50.xxx. I'm not sure how much I had invested in it, tho...
I'll try again with a fresh car.

From the several cars Ive tried, the Skyline was the best handling, just not enough power to really make any headway down the straightaway. Heck, I figure you could lose several seconds if the hp was there to take advantage of the straights. 
Im going to try again tonight (hopefully with the same car and maybe a different setup.
Good luck all.

OK, I ran my Evo VI. cr 25,980 purchase, plus cr 115,200 in mods = cr 141,180.
Second lap ever on the course in any car was 5':00.36", including one off when I got air on the first of the whoopsie-dos about 3/4 of the way through. Obviously there's room for improvement...

sorry 4'09.782
- 3,300
i dont know about the tires but i put them costing more than they are or if risingson is wrong
- 4,036
The tire cost varies from car to car.
This just in...
4'51.842
A little tweaking and a little practice... I could go further, but the ITR is not competitive with some of the bigger boys here. I think the Supra RZ is up next.
BTW, Cutieguy, I believe the 150,000 credits includes the purchase price of the car.
...and is it my imagination, or did you just change your username...?

risingson i won the car and i did not put and mods on it because it was already fast i just wanted to make it faster and have better grip i didnt see any rules that you cant already have a car that doesnt have any mods on it. and yes i asked Jordan to change my user name because everybody mistaked me as a girl.

I guess it'll go forever. No there isn't a physical prize. I guess I could make a custom avatar for the leader ... that could be cool.
The hard part about this challenge is that it costs a LOT of money. I've already purchased and modded about 15 cars. That comes to 2,250,000 cr ... YIKES!
