My weapons of choice here are simple.

1. Skyline @ 989BHP
2. Lancer EVO @ 905BHP

In these two cars, both armed with level 4 upgrades up the whazzu, I pretty much clean up. Evil...evil machines they are.

On 04-Jun-2008 Murcielago said:Yes but front-wheel-drive cars have much greater natural understeer than any other car, even 4/AWD. And if tyre wear did come into it, you'd be going into the pits a lot more than with a RWD car.
Actually no for FWD.
They are more natural at oversteering which would cause quite a bit of concern usually, but people generally either then just put on a set of hard compound tyres for the rear.

RWD can be one or the other or even both, but RWD generally are the best for balance in every way. This rule is very general though!

AWD or 4WD will have hints of understeer, but it's generally fine and they own in the wet conditions. In addition: due to their no squat "issue" they are very good indeed when it comes to straight line speed.
It is however very close to say which is better in a straight line: RWD and AWD/4WD sometimes.

That it is. Nice power on straights. Easy to brake into sharp turns, and enough juice to fire out of them without losing much speed. And I admit to being a Skyline mark. If it's a racing that has a Skyline, I usually have a Skyline in my garage, lol.

umm its true the nothing can beat american muscle cars for handling since as for your ferraries and aston martons etc they have spent millions on the cars tuning them to the best they can do, so they cant realy be improved. as for the muscle cars they have tons of room for improvement. so they can always be better.

and kenny i believe you should have seen jeremy clarksons view when they got the mercedes slk and modified it.

oh and kenny you should rethink your "car expert" status because that FWD bit is the silliest bit of crap I've read! One of the oldest facts in the car handbook is that while extremely stable, FWD cars are pretty much only useful on the road. They have the greatest amount of natural understeer of ANY drive type and they wear the front tyres quicker because everything happens on them.

Oh and fish, you think exotics can't be improved? Observe:

in my opinion that murcielago looks photoshoped.

but your things were mainly showing the body designs. and i would believe it more if it had numbers of the original bhp etc as well

no it isn't.......

Oh and I finally have the extenders. And I can safely say that the GT3 RS is the pick of the litter for Grip, with Carrera GT close behind.
