That's one quick golf

Highly disappointed in the premium Mitsubishi Evo IX. New cars are heavy and underpowered. I prefer the older models.

2:27.8 '99 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR (327hp/6500rpm, 320ft-lb/3000rpm, 1360kg)
2:30.5 '05 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX GSR (283hp/6400rpm, 301ft-lb/3000rpm, 1410kg)

Found an S4 in the used lot and cleaned her up. Surprising tie resulted. I prefer FR over 4WD because of weight and I prefer oversteer to understeer, but all that torque down low in the S4 is nice.

*2:35.0 '99 Honda S2000 (251hp/8000rpm, 166ft-lb/7500rpm, 1240kg)
*2:35.0 '98 Audi S4 (271hp/5900rpm, 307ft-lb/2000rpm, 1510kg)

The Ford Taurus SHO '98 has a nice V8 sound but I don't like it.

2:40.3 '91 Toyota Celica GT-Four RC (ST185) (240hp/6000rpm, 232ft-lb/4000rpm, 1460kg)
2:41.0 '98 Ford Taurus SHO (242hp/6000rpm, 237ft-lb/5000rpm, 1509kg)
2:41.3 '98 Mercedes SLK230 (201hp/5500rpm, 216ft-lb/2500rpm, 1325kg)

 

[lldantell]

Why the power in the s4 comes in 2000 rpm

 

[fitftw]

It's got a 2.7L V6 twin-turbo engine lol if you got one you should try it out. The newer S4's have V8's.

 

[lldantell]

That's 1.1 liter less then the gtr and 239 hp less

 

[fitftw]

The S4 is like a more luxurious, less powerful GT-R lol


.9 seconds...That's how much 20kg is worth in the FTO.

2:38.4 '99 Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R (206hp/7500rpm, 154ft-lb/6000rpm, 1150kg)
2:39.3 '99 Mitsubishi FTO GPX (206hp/7500rpm, 154ft-lb/6000rpm, 1170kg)

 

[lldantell]

How the GPx 20 kg heavier when it's the same car

 

[fitftw]

I found the differences between the GPX and the Version R. Some nice pics of a real Version R with some girls http://www.rmk-media.com/fto/


Enhanced sports suspension system
Limited slip differential (LSD)
Xenon HID headlights
Front and Rear strut braces
Large "Version R" rear spoiler
Air Conditioning
Colour coded sports seats depending on chosen paint finish.
Weight saving package, overall reduction by 50lbs

Here's where the Chrysler (Plymouth) Prowler fits in. It would make a great drift car. I spent more than 3 laps with it, it's a lot of fun. Nice comparison between FF, FR, and 4WD right here.

2:37.4 '01 Honda Civic Type R (EP) (211hp/8000rpm, 146ft-lb/7000rpm, 1180kg)
2:37.7 '02 Chrysler Prowler (261hp/6500rpm, 266ft-lb/4000rpm, 1287kg)
2:37.8 '98 Toyota Celica GT-Four (ST205) (262hp/6000rpm, 234ft-lb/4000rpm, 1390kg)

And we have another tie. The Prelude Type S is as fast as the '11 Mini Cooper S!

*2:41.5 '11 Mini Cooper S (184hp/5500rpm, 180ft-lb/1500rpm, 1140kg)
*2:41.5 '98 Honda Prelude Type S (221hp/7000rpm, 168ft-lb/6500rpm, 1310kg)

Battle of Lotus Elise generation 1 and 2.

2:26.3 '04 Lotus Elise 111R (198hp/8000rpm, 143ft-lb/7000rpm, 860kg)
2:28.6 '98 Lotus Elise Sport 190 (195hp/7000rpm, 147ft-lb/5000rpm, 670kg)

The gearing of the '04 Celica GT-S engine makes the 111R quicker. And the '98 is just so light that it's exhausting to drive at the limit.

Battle of the Mitsubishi Eclipses!

2:35.1 '06 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT (274hp/6000rpm, 273ft-lb/4500rpm, 1575kg)
2:38.2 '95 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT (228hp/6100rpm, 219ft-lb/2500rpm, 1330kg)
2:40.0 '03 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GTS (219hp/6000rpm, 214ft-lb/4000rpm, 1510kg)

I did the only Lexus IS 300 in the game, the Sport Cross. Every other old IS is the 200 which America never got.

2:40.3 '91 Toyota Celica GT-Four RC (ST185) (240hp/6000rpm, 232ft-lb/4000rpm, 1460kg)
2:40.6 '01 Lexus IS 300 Sport Cross (224hp/6000rpm, 225ft-lb/4000rpm, 1470kg)
2:41.0 '98 Ford Taurus SHO (242hp/6000rpm, 237ft-lb/5000rpm, 1509kg)

 

[lldantell]

what about the gtr black edition,it would be hard try to beat 2:16.591 because thats quicker then the more powerful viper

 

[fitftw]

2:14.4 '12 Nissan GT-R Black Edition (553hp/6500rpm, 476ft-lb/3500rpm, 1730kg)

I even took proof. That car is so fast and not bad in the corners either.

New slowest car so far, but still pretty decent for what it has.

2:48.5 '01 Volkswagen Lupo GTI (116hp/6500rpm, 114ft-lb/3000rpm, 975kg)

Another crazy tie, this time between two Nissan FR's!

*2:39.4 '96 Nissan 240SX (220hp/6000rpm, 208lb-ft/4500rpm, 1250kg)
*2:39.4 '83 Nissan Fairlady Z 300ZX (Z31) (235hp/5200rpm, 258ft-lb/3600rpm, 1380kg)

 

[lldantell]

Did 2:23.219 in the premium blitz skyline gtr.i could do better but the car can't go around a corner the right way.its absolute garbage

 

[fitftw]

Yeah that's a drift car I think lol that's why it sucks for racing.

Did the '07 BMW 135i

2:30.1 '90 Honda NSX (282hp/7000rpm, 222ft-lb/5000rpm, 1350kg)
2:30.2 '07 BMW 135i Coupe (312hp/6000rpm, 301ft-lb/1500rpm, 1560kg)
2:30.4 '00 Spoon Civic Type R (224hp/9500rpm, 124ft-lb/9500rpm, 820kg)

The M3 is 5 seconds faster.

2:25.5 '07 BMW M3 Coupe (423hp/8500rpm, 300ft-lb/4000rpm, 1655kg)

2:30.4 '00 Spoon Civic Type R (224hp/9500rpm, 124ft-lb/9500rpm, 820kg)

The M3 is 5 seconds faster.

2:25.5 '07 BMW M3 Coupe (423hp/8500rpm, 300ft-lb/4000rpm, 1655kg)

That's one slow 135i

 

[fitftw]

Yeah I hated it. It's short and has a lot of torque but it's heavy too so it wants to drift a lot. Try the Aston Martin V12 Vantage if you want. I'm going to do that in a bit.

 

[lldantell]

2:22.881 in the Aston Martin.great around the corners,but slow in the straights

1:06.661 in the red bull x2011.my favorite car in the game

 

[Jaywalker]

So do you guys know the track yet?

Sounds like fun.

 

[lldantell]

So do you guys know the track yet?

Sounds like fun.

Yeah

 

[fitftw]

I can't control the Red Bull X1 after driving all these slow cars lol

Yeah Jay I love Suzuka. I think I only have like 10 cars left to do, the rest are just duplicates of other cars or too boring.

I was joking. You 2 must have done 100's & 100's of laps by now! 👍 Might try a few myself.

 

[fitftw]

I must have done 200 laps in the past week and haven't been online at all. I might even do this again with a different track, maybe Tsukuba. It's cool to see cars that I never thought would be faster than other cars. Try to beat some of my times

Here's where the Mitsubishi Evo X fits in. Had a lot of fun with this car. Turns like a Miata, power on through almost the entire drift section.

2:26.4 '00 Spoon S2000 (284hp/9000rpm, 170ft-lb/8000rpm, 1100kg)
2:26.9 '10 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR (323hp/6000rpm, 324ft-lb/3500rpm, 1540kg)
2:27.3 '02 Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type A (298hp/6500rpm, 250ft-lb/4500rpm, 1270kg)

It's also faster than the Evo IX by 3.6 seconds

2:30.5 '05 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX GSR (283hp/6400rpm, 301ft-lb/3000rpm, 1410kg)

The Evo VI RS is one tenth faster than the Evo X because it tops out at 130mph on the straights and is 300kg lighter.

2:26.8 '99 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI RS (327hp/6500rpm, 319ft-lb/3000rpm, 1260kg)

Another tie, S4 and S2000. Also shown is the '98 Audi S4 for comparison. The '03 has a V8 and better suspension.

2:26.4 '00 Spoon S2000 (284hp/9000rpm, 170ft-lb/8000rpm, 1100kg)
2:26.4 '03 Audi S4 (357hp/7000rpm, 317ft-lb/3500rpm, 1660kg)
2:35.0 '98 Audi S4 (271hp/5900rpm, 307ft-lb/2000rpm, 1510kg)

I did not know the Evo RS's were better than the GSR's. I think the RS is made for rally driving because it accelerates HARD and stops at 130mph, hence Rally Sport.

2:26.8 '99 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI RS (327hp/6500rpm, 319ft-lb/3000rpm, 1260kg)
2:27.8 '99 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR (327hp/6500rpm, 320ft-lb/3000rpm, 1360kg)

And another tie here:

2:24.6 '04 Amuse S2000 R1 (271hp/8000rpm, 183ft-lb/6500rpm, 1120kg)
2:24.6 '04 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR GSR (338hp/6500rpm, 348ft-lb/3500rpm, 1400kg)

The Evo VIII MR is fantastic.

Evo II is slow, but still as fast as a GTO Twin Turbo

*2:33.8 '98 Mitsubishi GTO Twin Turbo (330hp/6000rpm, 376ft-lb/2500rpm, 1680kg)
*2:33.8 '94 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution II GSR (270hp/6500rpm, 234ft-lb/3000rpm, 1250kg)

Speak of the devil, a Evo I showed up in my dealer! I'm so happy because my other one is fully modified for drifting.

Wow I can't believe this. An Evo from 1992 tied with an '06 S2000

*2:36.7 '06 Honda S2000 (240hp/8000rpm, 166ft-lb/6500rpm, 1250kg)
*2:36.7 '92 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution I GSR (252hp/6000rpm, 233ft-lb/3000rpm, 1240kg)

I think I just have the Evo V and VII left to do to finish them off.

 

[lldantell]

did the aston martin yet

 

[fitftw]

Not yet sorry lol been obsessed with Evo's and Impreza's today. I will get to it tonight.

2:33.8 '94 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution II GSR (270hp/6500rpm, 234ft-lb/3000rpm, 1250kg)

Did the F-150 Lightning for the hell of it. Weighs twice as much as what it tied with.

**2:36.8 '99 Honda Integra Type R (DC2) (207hp/8000rpm, 144ft-lb/6500rpm, 1080kg)
**2:36.8 '00 TRD Celica Sports M (206hp/7500rpm, 145ft-lb/6500rpm, 1140kg)
**2:36.8 '03 Ford SVT F-150 Lightning (395hp/5000rpm, 469ft-lb/3500rpm, 2132kg)

2:26.4 '03 Audi S4 (357hp/7000rpm, 317ft-lb/3500rpm, 1660kg)

**2:42.6 '97 MG MGF (147hp/7000rpm, 132ft-lb/4500rpm, 1070kg)

 

[lldantell]

I think a premium Audi rs6 would do 2:23

 

[fitftw]

Shoot I didn't realize there was a premium RS6. I think that one is the wagon, right? It should be slower than the sedan unless it's newer.

 

[lldantell]

Yeah that's the 570+ hp wagon

2:14:846 with the re Amemiya amemiya fd3s rx7.this car feels unbelieveably good

 

[fitftw]

I have to do some quick Stars & Stripes Daytona races with my Saleen S7 today for some money to do some more cars lol. I will get around to the Aston and the Amemiya RX7 today. Yesterday didn't go as planned.

 

[Street Racer]

No tire changes either, right?

 

[fitftw]

No tire changes. Only car washes, oil changes, engine overhauls, and chassis maintenance in the GT Auto section.

ABS can be on 1 since that's what I have it on, but no other aids.

 

[lldantell]

How's the race going

 

[fitftw]

Sorry I spent all day putting everything into Excel. Check it out:

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BxXPWgLwXk_obUN3UGgtRXZFbG8

Happy Thanksgiving everybody. Dante, sorry I've been neglecting those two cars. I will get to them soon I promise lol. I wonder where else I can post up this link so that more people can see it and try to beat my times.
