I find it so hard to complete one clean lap in nordschleife with enzo.
the car is fast, but the handling is a bit of a pain in the thumb.
its very unstable on bumpy roads. and it does a lot of oversteers.

the fastest lap i did was 7.01.167 and it was in standard physics.
in pro I only managed to have 7.12.something
compared to GT-R done in 6.59.509 pro physics.

even NSX is easier than this enzo.

I feel like i have trained hard on it. but the car keeps going out of the road at random corners and chicanes.

so guys tell me, is it just me (which i have to try harder)
or you have experienced the same problem.

sorry for my bad english.
 
i find the same problem-got an enzo and thought 'great-this will be an amazing car' but i find it shakes at 180+mph and flies off at a slight touch to much of the throttle
 
you need to watch your weight balance more closely with enzo, first try after a while 7.02. s3, std phys and I crashed a few times, turn the driving line on to learn the braking points for enzo and also try to modulate your braking, it usually lifts its rear when you are hard on brakes, you could try softening the suspension as well


[edit] turned out i was running r1 tires after all

It also helps when you do a slight drift through the turns (not like the full 30degree drift either), its easiest way i found to drive it.
Just try steering with power.

its abit like the merc mclaren slr.

Don't you say that! I hated the SLR, but I quite like the Enzo.
I found it was a bit lairy, but something I could get used to. I haven't taken it to the Nuerburgring yet though. Perhaps you need more practise? A lot of cars in the game seem impossible at first, but you eventually master them.
 
I on the other hand like the handling of the Mclaren better than the Enzo.
It feels more stable.

Just keep driving the Enzo & you will master it someday.
 
another quick tip - learn the kerbs, if you want to go fast you need to know which kerbs you can attack throttle down and for which you have to back off slightly, analyzing angles of attack is also needed, i find myself bouncing across the track quite often so i try to concentrate on that now
 
The Enzo is realy a fast going car, but it has 600whp, which are causing oversteer.
With the Cross Control on the PSP you won´t be able to drive it to the max.
You´d need the G25 Steering Wheel...

The NSX is better to handle, bcuz it has half that power and is probably one of the best handling cars on this planet
 
I think PD messed up the Enzo's handling somehow. Ferrari will get sued to death if the real life Enzo handles anything like it is in-game.

Very disappointing. I hope this gets fixed in GT5.
 
No i dont think its like the merc SLR.
SLR handles fine under 150s, then it wud go wobbly but still driveable.
Enzo is just untamed. its like an animal, a horse.

Well i guess thats why so many enzos are crashed in the real world.

Seems like some people got it mastered.
So I have to practice more.
 
Realism my son. You really think that 650 horses going to the rear wheels would be easy to drive?
 
especially when you only have:
full throttle or no throttle

IN GT5 with steering wheel and gaspedal,
you will be able to drive this supercar faster than any other sportscar...

no, this is my father.

but ironically I find 987 horses are easier to drive.
*cough*veyron*cough*
 
I find the Enzo the easiest of the rear drive super cars to drive (No traction, no abs, and pro settings are on, along with R3 tires). The ZR1 is probably the most disappointing to me. No matter how easy I go on the gas, the thing :censored:in' spins like darn top.

For me its the other way around, enzo is the hardest RWD, yet the easiest and the fastest is ZR1.
 
I figure the Car / track selection is the problem.

The Ring is a really old Track, and pretty dangerous for a Enzo to be driven at full steam.

Id drive it at Circuit de la Valenzio (or whatever its called) That's a track well suited for the Enzo.

I agree. I also found the ZR1 much easier to drive than the Corvettes in GT5 Prologue. I know its not a good comparison, but based on my experience in GT5 Prologue I was expecting the ZR1 to handle like it was on ice, so I was surprised at how nice it was (for a RWD).

I still have problems with lift-throttle oversteer in MR cars, but I don't want to open that can-o-worms again.

Well my point is to conquer Nordschleife with any car that I like. And to score the fastest time on each car is a must. But the fact that I can't drive this enzo at the limit is kinda bothering.
 
But if you drive the Enzo round the track in the fastest time, isn't that driving it to the limit? Its not about going as fast as you've been before, its about going as fast as the conditions will allow.

Good point, but let me give you an example, when i drive a GT-R, I was at the limit, I got 6'58.xxx. And scoring a single second faster would be tough. same goes to ZR1 and plenty other cars.

The enzo is like 12 seconds slower than them, and it wasnt at the car's limit at all. But if I put a little more effort I'd spin out. Its just weird, the car seems to have large amount of power but it can't handle itself.

It dissapoints me since its a more powerful supercar, a 'Ferrari', yet unable to beat the GT-R.

I wonder how it goes in real life.
 
the GT-R was designed to be a 'supercar' killer, the Enzo requires a 'firm hand' and perhaps a lil' tuning over the default setup.
 
I just broke the 7minute barrier with the Enzo, and I slipped off the track at one point costing me a few seconds. I think your difficulty comes from the MR layout of the Ferrari which requires a much more precise and delicate control (which is hard to do on the PSP) compared with the GTR which is very forgiving by comparison.

Although R tires makes it easy, I think you should practice with N3 Tires, that will bring out the character in each car and show you what to do and what not to do. I think the R Tires hide a lot of the traits in a car and when you lose control, its often not as clear as to why you've done so.

Funny, every game i drove it in so far gave me the same impression of the car, it sucks. Be it TDU or SuperCar Challenge, i never liked the handling of it.

looks like they succeed

nice, thats what i always try to do. pass the 7 minute barrier.
why N3? isn't it too slippery, and i think real enzos don't wear N3 tyres. Or do they? why not S1 instead?

I'll give it a try anyway.
 
I think it suck I even started a thread about this it got locked, but I have on a few occasions beat the veyron with the enzo so it usuable but not the best car to race with.
I think its because of the way that match the other cars to your. They either are way faster or way slower. For instance when using the enzo they force you to race the veyron. On some tracks you can beat the veyron but on most you will fail
 
Yo guys guess what....
I just scored 6.56.657 at the ring with the Enzo!

I beat my GT-R lap time which I thought was not possible.

I tamed it!! hahahahahahahahahaha
