Best Cars for Compact Cars Seasonal

[hawkeye122]

HPA Golf, BMW M Coupe

 

[Rent-A-Ninja]

Opponents in this seasonal race have 390 PP at most and use sports hard tires. It seems obvious to me that are people going to win with 450 PP cars and/or tires better than those.

For me, half the fun of this seasonal is seeing which cars qualify for the length requirement. We haven't had such a varied seasonal in quite a while. One time I even used a heavily de-tuned Shelby Cobra.

Fiat 500 with abarth essesse specs

Im using the RUF btr 86 great fun

 

[Cavallo Rosso]

I'm surprised everyone is using these cars maxed to 450pp. And a RUF ? I find the races more challenging with my Mini Cooper, @ 405pp with Sports Mediums. I pass the last car on the last lap at around the last sector in all the races. Very challenging too, It takes a few tries for me to place 1st.

I had a blast running these with a stock MKIV R32 and also a RM Cappuccino (92HP and in hot pink!).

I'm still really confused (and upset) that the MKV GTI isn't allowed when all these other cars are. I own one in RL, so always try to use it when I can.

The ruf on sports hards with all only abs set to 1 is so much fun tho its just full lap drifting with other cars in the way i overtake the 1st place car on the last lap

Just got a Fiat Panda from 1990 tuned to the pp limit. Really good drive, kind of shocked me how good it was lol

Just finished this event using the Mazda 110s(L10B) '68 and the Mazda Cosmo Sport '67....good event.

edit: sports soft tires and ABS=1, else off.

 

[danjee]

I used my trusty ol' Honda MUGEN MOTUL Civic Si Race Car... It's the best FF in the game!

 

[testorz]

I used a Mini Copper !

 

[Calundanni]

Mazda Roadster RS (NC) '07.... Tried it by "accident" and now I just cant stop driving. It's one of the most fun cars I've tried across all level of cars... Drive it without no aids or anything, perhaps a slight Hp boost, Sports Hard, but other than that leave it be.... It takes corners like nothing else (well almost), perfect drifting/full throttle. Try it!

 

[YellowG1]

I use the Renault Clio V6 24V '00. It's way faster than the AI if you want to grind and it's a dream to drive too.

This is what I've used too. 👍 It's a bit of a handful (and makes things more competitive) if you leave the stock comfort tires on, almost like a hatchback Elise.

-Did it in the Honda Insight, the old one. At about 390pp, a good fun run!
-The BMW M coupe on the Kart track is overkill, but really fun with the gearing set to about 190kph! Just rev it everywhere, and try to get under that 45sec mark was my aim.
-The Ginetta G4, my favourite car!.. did well at 600kg.
-The Z Act is awesome! Can get it over the 400pp mark and make lots of smoke!
-Toyota SERA was a good one at about 350pp, but hard to keep up with some of them out of corners... also the 'ist' which you can pump up a bit is fun.
Funny thing is, I already had all these cars, sucker for the little junker cars for split screen mayhem!
Going to try out the Triumph Spitfire, Opel Tigra, Mitsi Galant GTO '70 and the Nissan Exa(if its not too long)!

 

[ObscureSerenity]

Sorry about double post... forgot to say, ... most of the time I use the SM tyres.

As a side note, what are people's fastest times round the last Kart track? Much below the 44sec mark?

 

[Tom]

I used the Lotus Elise 111R '04

 

[BWX]

Hond beat with about 400 or so PP.

 

[gtnoobie]

Yay. I won all events on swift sports 05 on 351pp (no hp or weight upgrade) Used racing soft for r246 as the long straight is too slow on stock.
The rest can be done by sports soft. anyone completed all events on lower pp?

 

[LEGOmy240]

Nothing like four wheel drifting the RS200 at grand valley. Race was a little too easy but fun. Ive been using pretty much every single car that qualifies in my garage. My favorite seasonal so far.

 

[sssergey]

Tesla Roadster '08
full electrical and very lightweight MR car with initial PP=463
jast detune motor power and RUN
it`s so easy and fun...

especially if make full tune (aerodynamic parts + reduсe weight + adjastable suspension) and then reduce power to PP=450

 

[doobieduck]

mini cooper 1.3 i.was great fun

 

[Runeaxe977]

Drove a tuned Opera Performance S2000 '04. Handling was great and placed first by the second lap, Love that car!

 

[EasySauce]

I've been using the Alfa Romeo TZ2 (carrozzata da ZAGATO blahbalhblah numbers), detuned to 123 hp and weighing in at 620 kg. It's an absolute joy to drive, especially on the Kart circuit with top gear set to 99 mph. The thing just cruises effortlessly past the competition of much less expensive vehicles.

 

[CC570]

Try a maxed out Honda Beat or Mazda Autozam on sports hard tires. A good race everytime and the cars are a blast to drive.

 

[eek626]

I was thinking that...has anyone tried?!

Caterham works, but you have to tune the hp down (88hp) and add ballast (forgot the weight). I've only tried the car on Tokyo Bay and it is still fairly quick (1st on 4th lap) with that much detune.

 

[gthead01]

Golf GTI '76. One of the easier seaonals to run.

 

[ObscureSerenity]

The Nissan March 12SR '07 is awesome for grinding on the last track, the Kart one. Getting low 39's each lap, but think some of you out there will be achieving 37's on this one...
What's your best lap time for the Kart track and what car?

 

[trombone]

I drove a maxed out Fiat Panda Super i.e. It was fun to drive such a silly car fast. ...except it sometimes flips over around tight corners.

 

[Fezz_ST]

I used my Gathers Civic, walk in the park, gonna have to start making it a bit more challenging but I'm saving for an F2007

The FT-86 G Sports Concept '10

way too fast but I believe that any car that doesn't list its length will work (such as that one)

cool thing about the FT is that you can see a picture of the map on the dash when using the drivers seat view
