Any one noticed how absolutely crap some of the powerful grx cars are.

Thank you for the thought-provoking thread title and eloquently-worded OP. This will surely spark constructive, rewarding discussion.

Every Vision car I get given is Deleted right away, I don't want to drive a pretend car..... there such a waste of space. I'v binned 5/6 cars upto now.... this feels less then a game and more of a corporate promo software for FIA or car manufacturers.

The way I see it, if this is supposed to be FIA sanctioned Virtual racing championship, then why not have fantasy made cars made for the virtual track? I like the idea of the vision cars, if the FIA were to have an official Online world championship, it would be fitting they would be vision GT cars

This could have been one of the best car of the game. I love it really , the main problem is that we not have full access to the settings, like camber that is one of the most influent parameter in GT, and also the springs , that are aparently too soft even at the higher level.
I hope this will be corrected, i would love to race a championship with this car.
Fittipaldi is so proud of it, sure it must be more than the game is showing us.

Whilst I understand your point of view, and agree to some extent. But then most of the Group B, Grp 3 & 4 cars are also pretend, but not to the same extent. I wonder if you also refuse to race on the fictional tracks as well?

Got it today also as my daily

Can't say I've tried them out really, at least not outside of the campaign mode. When the test season is over my plan is to try out some new cars in my garage.

The Mclaren Ultimate VGT Gr.X also suffers from limited setup access, the gears are absolutely awful, and way too short for the car to reach its maximum straight line potential. On the Tokyo East course, I found myself maxing out at 6th gear not even halfway down the long straight.

I thought the only limits for a VGT car were supposed to be implemented by the designers themselves, and yet PD have gone and imposed their own limit on what could be an amazing straight line performance from this specific VGT car. That's absurd. I can't imagine the designers at Mclaren being happy with that, especially when the Bugatti VGT Gr.X's speed is in no way limited by its transmission.
