Best gt500 car in nurburgring?

What is the best car of gt500 in nurburgring?
With 500hp and racing soft tires

 

[xAmilli0n]

They are all good, I like the GT-Rs because the ring is very twisty, but they all have their benefits. Just whichever works best for your driving style. The racing softs also makes the difference in handling less of an issue.

 

[Marcelo1994]

Which of they have the best grip on the curves?

 

[defaultoasis]

Has to be the NSX.

 

[ashes619]

I think the GT-R's are the best as I believe they have the best handling. Also if powers a problem you could always give it a Turbo but with the AI (if your versing AI's) we have at the moment you won't need it. 👍

 

[Counter_Z23]

The NSX cars are the fastest.

Too twitchy. It's like the ring dislikes NSX GT500, one counter steer and you won't save it.

The NSX cars are the fastest.

They may be fast but they are twitchy. You will need to be careful if you are driving this.

 

[Villain]

All of them 👍

Yeah...that's the problem I have on online races. With the understeery GT-Rs I can't pull ahead from anyone, with the MR NSXs I gain time in many corners and all the downhill section but lose time on places like Karussel for losing traction from struggling to counter steer. But NSX is definitely the fastest on Suzuka which is a smoother track.

 

[Marcelo1994]

What about the nismo z? Or the lexus?

 

[defaultoasis]

The Lexus is slow all round, although I like the car and in real life it is in no way slower than the other two(stealing the drivers title from GT-Rs in 09 coming from behind), I've yet to come up with a setting that can beat the time I set in GT-Rs & NSXs in this game.

Yeah, you described it perfectly. NSX likes smooth tracks, constant ups and downs with bumpy roads really unbalance the car making the handling very nervous and unpredictable. It's just too difficult to push hard in a heated battle. Maybe the MR layout has something to do. It's like that in Deep Forest and Trial Mountain too. Really hard to push, although the NSX has the potential to out do the GTRs, GTRs are easier to push to the max and are very forgivable.

Yeah, pretty much agree with you, though I will say, I don't find GT-R understeery at all (but then again, thats personal preference and car setup)

GTRs are very balanced, they don't understeer but they are a bit harder to dive into the corners compared to the NSX. Plus I think GTRs have a wider poweband and higher torque which is very useful on tracks like Fuji, where the last corners are very steep.

In a nutshell:

GTR = Uphill corners, bumpy roads and hairpins, very safe and easy to push ride.

NSX = High speed corners, S corners, quick changing directions smooth tracks, very twitchy but rewarding ride.

Lexus = Very GTR like ride.

Supras = Monster torque, kinda understeery, good all arounder.

I guess that is what I like the most, the fact I can push the car hard, and I know when I'm at the limit. Its pretty forgiving to start out with, so you are encourage to keep mastering it.

I like your analysis 👍

 

[freedomweasel]

If you're putting racing softs on it anyway I doubt the differences will be very apparent. I'd buy whichever one you like the look of.

 

[defaultoasis]

Puttin racing softs on all of them will not hinder the car to behave on its own way, as I've always been using racing softs on these cars and they still behave rather differently. Think about it, how could an FR behave the same as an MR just because they've got the same tyre? Gotta be some kind of difference. And practically it's pretty easy to tell; strike them all into Suzuka's first corner which has a little camber in it, brake, turn, accelerate, and into the esses section, left right left right left...the difference is so obvious that I doubt anyone would miss.

 

[freedomweasel]

What I meant was that any "twitchyness" or instability will largely be covered up by the insane tires.

In my opinion, just about anything with racing softs drives "on rails", even more so with the downforce from a SuperGT car.

 

[Marcelo1994]

So the best is nsx?

 

[ShortAznGuy]

So the best is nsx?

It's only the best if you have a great setup for it.
The GT-R is probably the best all-around vehicle for the GT500 cars.
You tend to get more oversteer from the NSX.
That is just from my personal experience with a G27.

 

[kingstang5oh]

The NISMO Z in the premium dealership is by far the best super gt car hands down. Fastest in every area, you can throw this thing around like a cusco suburu while going 100mph faster.

 

[D_B_Coop]

I like them all but I use the Supras the most out of them all. I hate the Lexus though. I wish I knew what I was getting myself into before I bought it.

 

[jedi09]

Sorry, what is GT500? Is that the JGTC group of cars?

 

[saleenf5]

I use the supras, racing mid

 

[D_B_Coop]

Yea same thing from my understanding.

 

[LordZycon]

It's actually SuperGT now and GT500 is a class that manufacturers can compete in. GT300 cars also compete in the series these being the Cusco Impreza, Lexus IS350 and various Porsches, Ferraris and the like. :-)

 

[GT5Redsucker23]

Nissan GTR GT500

 

[drivehard]

I don't know if it's GT500 but the Autobacs Arta Garaiya 08' gets up to 495hp and I'd have to imagine it would blow away the competition in the turns. Acceleration isn't its strong point though.

Well guess what? They don't.
