Aaron's car reviews part 1: McLaren f1

This is probably my favorite car in the world! The 3 seat arrangement makes for a great cockpit view! But the view and the style doesn't mean much in a race, and that is where this supercar excels! When tuned, it can reach speeds of nearly 250mph, and turns pretty well for it's speed. Acceleration is very consistently high.
Ratings:
Top speed: 247mph
Handling:6.5/10
Accel low speed:8/10
Accel high speed: 9.25/10
Fun:9/10
Overall:8
This car has made <3:40 lap times on le sarthe, imperfect ones at that!

This is a great car for certain tracks such as le sarthe, daytona, and the high speed ring, where speed and acceleration are of higher priority than handling. However, this car handles significantly better than most supercars of similar speed.

Part 2: Mazda furai

This car is stunning! It corners like an f1 car, and accelerates with insanity... Until about 170mph. Without aids, it is the most unforgiving oversteering death trap. With drive by wire, (mild driving aids) it is stunning, the instability becomes pure turning ability!

Ratings:
Top speed: 210 (230 drafting)
Handling:10/10
Acceleration low speed:9/10
Acceleration high speed:7/10
Fun:8/10
Overall:9/10
Bob can take this to Indy with consistent 45sec laps and consistent 190+mph cornering!

This car is perfect for any track that the McLaren f1 isn't, this is a car for technical tracks.

Part 3 Zonda r

This is a great car for everything! But isn't the best for anything... It's fast but there's faster. It turns well but I've seen quicker turns. It is great for championships that feature a variety of tracks, but there are better cars for individual tracks.

Ratings:
Top speed: 230mph
Handling: 8/10
Low speed acceleration: 8/10
High speed acceleration: 8/10
Fun: 5/10
Overall: 8.5/10
It makes great lap times on every track, but is usually second best.

This car is all business, like most modern race cars. It's very precise and it does exactly what you tell it and nothing else. You drive it fast and it doesn't feel fast, it has no soul, its not very fun.

Nice job, but I think this goes in the Race Reports section.

It doesn't really matter. Some are in the normal GT5 forum, including mine, others are in the Race Reports section, and none of them have been moved.
