Good question. After a few minutes thought I narrowed it down to two. But actually there isn't much contest. In second place is the ZZII, but its main problem is that its slightly on the boring side - just a bit too good really.

For me, the most fun has to be the fully specced Zonda Race Car. Stonking power through the rear wheels means a careful thumb when playing with the mandatory lack of driver aids, coupled with very tidy handling. Not too much downforce to spoil the party either, like the Toyota GT-One Race Car, which is also a decent one. So basically, immensly fast down the straights and through the corners, whilst still requiring decent concentration levels.

Can't be bothered to post what the settings are, apart from they all have all the add-ons.

I like the Tuscan, with all the mods, running medium soft fronts and medium rears, lowered a bit. Can really make it fly if you have a delicate thumb (and if the SP 6 engines holds up )

The Gillet Vertigo race car, the Mazda 787B and the Saleen Mustang with all the driver aids turned off. I've also got the Focus WRC car up at something like 600bhp, which is nice

My favourite, for sheer driving pleasure, has got to be the Gilette Vertigo race car.

Class

Will find the settings at home and post them.

i also like the tuscan, makes an nice noise(for gt3) near the redline and handles ok with decent tires and suspension setup. i also like the old rx7 (efini?) fully tuned with hard racing tyres racing in the rwd or turbo races, drift heaven

2 other great ones I have remembered. Puegot Rally Car, sounds great when building up the revs and you can throw it about every which way. Nissan R390 road car too. Its nearly like an F1 car.


and while on the topic of GT, let me add in my praises for the new Logitech GT4 wheel(called the driving force pro wheel actually) A bit expensive but worth all the money, makes the game a whole lot more fun and is just a blast to drive with.

I loved racing the TVR Speed 12. Yes, really, racing it. And winning. But then... I am a Driving God.

The Speed 12 is fun, but my fave is:

Toyota Sprinter Toureno GT_Apex, all the mods (bar turbo - f**cks up the power delivery), sim tyres and TCS and ASC turned off.

Get on Apricot hill and stick it sideways, great fun.

Will dig out the exact setting later.

Its not that hard to win with it. The beast is fast as if you can get it to handle.

And if you manage to keep the tyres in 1 piece.


My fave car would have to be the Exige, tuned to 360bhp, it's amazing what you can keep up with and even beat (well not on the straights anyway)
2nd fave would be the Tuscan! grrrrrrr

RUF RGT makes a great noise! and so does the NSX

Best burnout machine: Aston Martin V8 Vantage, fully tuned!

I've got a very nice MR2 Turbo with well over 500bhp that I quite like. The Griff makes a lovely noise as well.

Agree about the Exige, cracking little car

Spot on, it was the JGTC Nomad racing Diablo. Removed from the European release because of licencing issues with Lambo.

Sony got the licence from Nomad, which was aparently fine for Aisa, but not Europe, not sure about North America, but I think it was removed from that version as well.
