Not to mention the little thing can comfortably go past 170mph with no weight reduction ~300Bhp and a lengthened final gear. :)

hahaha, thanks for the edit. I know the proper way of spelling it but didnt see the need for seperation since we all know what it is. But yeah, the little thing is quick. 👍
 
I really like the MG - MGF '97 because i've never seen anybody other than me using it :)

It is very good on the Nordschleife Track!

Middle Engine with rear wheel drive :D
 
Gillet Vertigo. Handles like a truck, but strip all its downforce and you've got yourself LMP-level straight line acceleration at under 640pp.
 
Toyota 2000 GT '67

Not the fastest through the corners due to having old narrow tires but on smooth faster tracks is a true 400PP speed demon.

Currently having a shootout on Nordschleife in the tuning forum. First round was 400PP on CS tires and this was my entry. Poor suspension tune for the ring on my part meant the car lost to much time through the corners but it blew everyone away with its top end speed reaching around 153mph on the long straight which was around 10mph faster than any of the other cars entered in the shootout.:D
 
I''ve got a couple sleeper cars that I'm not going to mention. Dont want to let the cat out.
One car that's pretty fun though is the Ford Focus premium with a stage 1 turbo. It has insane low rpm torque, you dont even need to worry about changing gears.
 
Taurus Sho, I run mine with stock exhaust at about 375 hp and can hit 185 mph and it has an awesome sounding v8.
 
The Neon srt4 is also a sleeper, 600+ hp and 220 mph around Daytona. I've won with it in muscle car races at Daytona.
 
If no one has mentioned it yet, the Alpine A110, fast mofo. Surprised the hell out of me. A small uninteresting French car from the 1970's and it happens to be one of my favourites.

The Lotus Carlton '90 is blindingly fast for what it is and when it was made...

Also my dream car XD Worlds fastest Saloon from its debut through almost 15 years or something like that :)
 
The Nissan R92CP

Now hold those horses... I had done a proper set of tests on all my Big LeMans cars, just to assess how fast they went. Annoyed the old cars were so slow. but generally they could all run 3'40 - 3'30

I tested this Nissan and it was 8 seconds a lap faster than the others i had tested. (Sauber/88C-V/GTOne/Pug908/Pug 905... and so on.)

I'm still slightly shocked at how much faster it was than the other LM cars. Maybe the patches have made the LM cars alot faster than they were back in version 0.97.

that was just to see how fast i can make it go, on route x, im working on making my GTO track ready.

My GTO is track ready it got a beast acceleration off the line and have great handling the only downside is top speed it get to 200 pretty quick

How have you set it up? I kind of like to get max speed out of my cars first before making it into a track car.
(please don't condescend me again)
 
I put mines up to top speed also but by manually doing gear ratio, suspension, Limited Slip but the more straight the more speed it just is very slow to reach top speed unless it a long straight like on Tokyo I can get to 200 only and on La Sarthe I can only get to 210 or 215. Once it pass to 200 it takes like 2 seconds each to get to the next mph
 
I've said it before, but the fully-tuned '99 Aston Martin V8 Vantage is stupendous! I honestly don't know a better pp-to-hp ratio car. You can reach 961hp at only 565pp. Just don't add a spoiler, because this takes the pp from 565pp to 595pp.

Weight distribution ruins its handling and keeps it's Racing Softs doing burnouts until almost 100mph in 3rd gear, but after that... :scared: it blasts off passing fields of cars in a single straight. :sly: I recommend Le Sarthe and High Speed Ring for this. 👍

It's probably been said already, but hot damn the Cappuccino RM is bloody quick. Slap on some racing tires and a full power/weight upgrade and that thing will attack corners like a rabbit!

Sure it only has 123 BHP, but it's cornering speed can probably match that of almost anything sane on GT5
 
Haha, 'filthy speeds' is a very polite way to say that. The RX7 TC is also blisteringly quick. It's only got about 635pp but any 650pp race is like a walk in the park.

RX-7 TC is very quick, but its a racing car so you'd expect it to go like a dream.. the Amemiya is planted throughout and even does little controlable drifts with Racing Soft tyres. The fact that, in real life, its street legal because its only 'mildly tuned' just makes it even more amazing
