Favorite "off the showroom" Supercar...R390GT1, GT-One RoadCar, or Lotus Elise GT1?

[Option2]

Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on these cars. (The Stock cars...not the racing-modded ones)

My personal fave is the '97 R390GT1. It handles well with stock suspension, has great power and midrange tourque. It understeers a bit and requires more braking distance, but is very managable. This car actually holds the #1 record in the 0-1000M.

The GT-One Road Car is very fast, but it seems too light. Head to head with the two other Race Versions of the GT-One, it's not an easy race. It's sort of a knief-edge car, as are all GT-One's. They need to be driven like F1 cars. The Road Version actually holds the record for Midfeild-Reverse.

The Lotus Elise is an incredibly fast car with the right suspension set-up. It's sort of in the same catagory as the GT-One, but more stable with proper suspension tuning.







I dunno........just random thoughts by Option2.

'97 R390 GT1 for looks, but Elise GT1 for drive.
i can understand why some people don't like this car; it takes a lot of getting used to, a lot of tuning, and still oversteers like mad. i like it, though. it's really a challenge, and (much like the good ol' Speed 12) really whips the llama's ass when you master its technique.

Elise GT1...Probably my favorite car in the game. And I really like the R390 '97 road car...so much better than the showroom '98.

The R390 GT1 ('97) is one of the best handling cars. It is a little slow on the top end without some tranny tweeks.

The Toyota GT-one Road car has the best adjustment features already built in. Yes, it is a handful to drive. Especially, at first. But still much easier to live with than the Speed 12.

Haven't spent much time in the Lotus. No real opinion there.

I did mean the Road Version of the Elise GT1, not a race-modded one.


I also forgot to mention the two Jaguars. The XJ220 runs 945hp with a big turbo and only has a 5sp tranny, but comes stock with 542hp and blows everything away on the 590hp/limit races. I forget the name of the other Jag, but it ran pretty well also.

Wait...hold on...I thought you meant the Esprit GT1...The Elise GT1 I hate with a jazz passion. So my pick would be the '97 R390 road car.

No no, not the GT1/DTM cars. I mean the showroom stock cars.
