whats the best car for the LIKE THE WIND RACE?

[JUBJUB]

yah i just finally got my S license. Damn that s2 exam was hard and i got the s8 exam in two tries (do it in manual).

not to brag or anything

well now i want the mazda 787b and i'm getting it on the like the wind race. but i can never win. the viper always passes me on the second lap then i never pass him again. and yes i know about the slip stream or whatever when you go behind a car. well anyways i need to know whats the best car to do this race in?

i do it in the million dollar corvette.

what car do you think i should use?

 

[gt3hardass]

i say your best bet is to either sell your vette or save some money (about 300 grand) and fully modify a toyota supra. youll destroy almost anything with a fully modded supra. and its worth the 300 grand once you win the 787b. good luck

 

[S13DRIFTSPEC]

I finished all the rally races first so I can get the escudo. If you don't have a rally car. Do the wet races (SSR5 or something) first so you get a subaru impeza rally car prototype use your vette. Then do all the rally races so you get the escudo. And get 1800hp on it do the wheelie trick and you'll beat the crap out of the computers. Oh and once you get the escudo keep on doing the rubber band trick at super speedway. You'll have a bunch of cash to spend. If you don't wanna do all that try the Lotus Esprit.

 

[Krusty]

yeah the escudo is a good investment, for example you can use it to earn easy money in the super speedway endurance

I had an R34 V-Spec II Skyline lying around in the garage, so I packed it full of turbos, muffler etc, a full custom gearbox, tuned the gears as wide as possible and held X down for the race.
It easily smoker the Viper...and won me the 787b, well worth it.

 

[techie-bob2003]

i used a dodge VIPER GTS tuned with,

stage 3 suspention
sports brakes
brake balance controller
stage 3 exhust
racing chip
stage 4 turbo
and any other tuning things avalible.

this took my BHP up to around 1096.

this was perfect.

i made no alterations to the settings wot so ever.

this car blitsed around the track faster than the polyphony and 787b can.

i laped every car about 7 times.

 

[Solid Lifters]

VIPER GTS!

This is the car I used too. Tune it for over 1000 HP and set the racing gear box setting in the mid 40's. Turn off all the traction control crap too, and dont buy a new differential either. You dont need it.

 

[techie-bob2003]

it is a fat car yeah.

but i could do with the team oreca.

can u tell me were i can get it from plzzzzz. (the quickest race) plz.

The Viper GTS, with the full HP upgrades, is faster than the Team Oreca on the Test Course track.

If you want the GTS buy it.

If you want the Oreca clear the Amateur League or buy it for 1,000,000 credits.

 

[techie-bob2003]

i have nerly completed amature but u cant buy the tema oreca other wise i would have it know.

You can most definitely buy the Dodge Viper GTS R Team Oreca Race Car in the North American version of GT3! It sells for 1,000,000 credits.

It's the Dodge Viper GTS R Concept car that you can not buy.

 

[techie-bob2003]

srry im from UK so i have the English version and i cant buy it.

bob

 

[ving]

anything that can do about 400 km/h is a sure win.
go for the hardest tires tho

oh, and i used a f1... cause i hate the race but wanted the mazda.
go read my brief write-up in the write-ups section

 

[flingpooido69]

i used the vertigo race car (win from am euro race*) aka charlie the tuna. i put in all it can get, which isnt much and i did wheelie trick.


save after 4th race, go to next, skip monaco(cote d azur) and then (if youve won every race ull win the championship. the cars u get are a skyline r34 , mini cooper , vertigo , and an elise i think.

 

[delucani]

I use the Toyota Gt-One Race Car for Test Track Races. If you tune it to the wheelie state you will be able to round the track from 215-1250 m.p.h. Now if you feel this is cheating you will actually have to try at this race so oh well

 

[RVDNuT374]

I used the 1881 HP Escudo and 0wn3d everyone.

How do you get 1881? Mine is 1793.

Anyway, I used the 'scud to.

The initial oil change increases the HP from 1793 -> 1881

Yeah. I just got back from playing GT3. I gave my Escudo an oil change and realized my BHP jumped up to 1881.

 

[go_speed_racer]

Use the Escudo, you'll win for sure.

 

[Duke]

I used a TS020 (GT One) road car with Stage 4 turbo. I wasn't interested in competition for once.

The Viper I would choose too! Originally I would choose the Escudo, but it sucks at handling. The viper has long gears so it can get up to around 275-285 mph (without a wheelie) and smoke the other cars and EASILY overlap 'em. With 1100+ hp, and the others having anywhere from 500-900 hp or so, you can see. If you don't choose the viper, or don't have enough money, I would choose either the Supra or the 'Vette, those cars would do well too. I hope this helped!

1250mph huh...cheating is applied here?

 

[Rue]

If I recall I used the C5R, an underrated car in my opinion.

 

[Eibach23]

Escudo 1881 hp easy win

 

[pat666]

i did it with the viper team oreca with over 1000 bhp! And won it easely!! You can also use the gt-one road car if you have it

 

[SLK55_AMG]

eskudo handling settings

 

[crb]

Escudo sucks [big lollipops], just me but I hate it. It looks good going up the mountain at pikes peak. To me that is what it was made for, not for the road. 👎

Comment from moderator: DON'T DO THAT AGAIN.

yeah, this is a race that you just want to get over with...there is no point in looking for competition here..

if my memory serves me right (and it usually doesnt) i did it in a tuned out S2000LM @ 960ish hp. just put the foot on the gas and waited for the finish line...

 

[jultra]

Definately use the escudo. It flys by everything.
