Seeing that the mustang has lit up the boards at monza and nowhere else. Is it just a one hit wonder onl on power tracks
 
It's just down to the car's default settings giving it the perfect gear ratios and downforce for Monza, if settings were open I doubt it would be as dominant.
 
I had a few laps in my 991 to remind myself of the track (haven't driven it in 5 years), saw I was nowhere near friends list times, had a go in the M6, got a little closer, had a go in the merc, little closer, had a look at the leaderboards and saw 10 mustangs, put a few laps in with it and beat my other cars, but never strung a lap together, thought about switching some aids on but decided to boycott the race and go play it in a lobby with my 991.

To cut a long story short I'm never gonna give 991 up, never going to give it up, la la la la

In answer to your question, it seems good around nurburgring long track too.
 
I've been driving it exclusively for all Gr.3 races for the last month or so. I find the car pretty awesome. I'm able to compete with the S/S A/S drivers on any circuit. Usually only 1-2s down from the top10 leaderboards.

It has some unique strengths which makes good for actual racing, even if the lap times aren't the fastest. It's slower in the corners but it's difficult for drivers to pass you there, and on the straights you can pull away and make clean passes without diving. Meaning it's strong when it comes to defensive driving, and good at overtaking.

Plus it sounds awesome, and before the most recent patch it was better on fuel so you could afford to save a second during pitstops vs the 911s (now that this was patched i'm not sure if it's still the case).

I have only used it couple of times, but have noticed the same. On mount panorama, i kept losing time on corners but was able to make it up on the straight, even though the lap time wasnt the fastest its pretty good for defending your position and attack on straight. Especially on such tight tracks.
 
Do people realize that there is always going to be a dominant car on a specific track? It's literally impossible to balance every car perfectly. How do you guys make it through real life when you notice the ratio of Prius to other cars is like 1.5 to one !

I do not know where you live but here SUV and crossover 4x4's and 4x4 pickups are probably at least 65% of what is on the road, A Prius is not a dominate car here at all, actually see fairly few of them compared to most other cars. Car wise a Civic or a Camry outnumber a Prius 5 to 1 AT LEAST.

It was a joke, but it still applies even to you, How do you guys make it through real life when you notice the ratio of Trucks to other cars is like 4 to one !

Because some of us do not spend all of our time IN OUR MOM'S BASEMENT playing video games!:gtpflag:
 
That car is a bitch to shake off on the long straights of Tokyo Expressway Central Loop, on the corners it's quite easy to gain some ground but the Mustang will quickly catch up on the main straight.
