Currently I'm trying to knock the other two Enzo's out of 2nd and 3rd while still finishing 1st in La Festa Cavallino: Sarthe 2009.

I can barely put one of them into the wall on the first chichane, but he catches up and I have to try and put him into another wall later.

It is hard to knock both of them out, but the replays are great, just focus on the one in the lead and laugh.

Anyways, try this for fun if you get bored of the seasonals.👍

Lighten up! Notice he said do it if you're bored of the seasonals?

I've done something similar with an Enzo of my own, fully modded (understeer central) and tried to either hit a car turning into the chicanes on the mulsanne or see how close I could get without crashing whilst cutting the chicanes through the sandpit. Quite a bit of fun when the game starts to get boring 👍.

Me too 👍👍 love taking them out in 458 the second one is easy first one you gotta get at the kink and knock him into the trap
 
Or get a run up down the run to Indianapolis and see if you can punt them off into the trap at Indianapolis corner. I've tried that to see if I can get it to hit the wall at the end of the pit, no luck so far :(
 
Enemy cars have amazing 'stabilety electronics' (or something similar) they are hard to bring of balance. In return i find it hard (extremely sometimes) to keep balance when i get hit or when i hit an enemy's (opponent that is -LOL-) car. They allso seem to loose less speed when hitting a wall. This makes it a hard sport.
And the sport is: Not to just win the race but to win AND decide wich enemy car gets 2nd, 3rd etc. place. I like it, makes GT5 very hard if you want to win yourself and at the sametime create an atmosphere where a * 2CV gets 2nd and a audi LM car gets last. You have to block the audi and push the Citroën 2CV at allmost the same time, and when you succeed you know you've done something quite remarkable. The game should give bonussus for such achievements -lol-
*= this is an example but it gets close to what i sametimes do in GT5.

I'll post my enzo or 458 italia set up later today. I am not near my ps3 and can't remember all the numbers. You will want to fully upgrade them and use racing soft tires. My enzo is around 20 seconds faster a lap then the 458.

Both of these cars have every upgrade available installed with racing soft tires
ENZO-
Aero is 25 on rear
Transmission-
1st-2.850
2nd-1.900
3rd-1.360
4th-1.060
5th-.850
6th-.700
Final gear-4.100
Top speed set to 298

Diff
Initial is 55
Acceleration is 60
Braking is 5

Suspension
Ride height
Front -20 Rear -15

Spring rate
Front 9.0 Rear 10

Dampers extension
Front 4 rear 6

Dampers compression
Front 2 rear 4

Antiroll bars
Front 4 rear 5

I haven't found a good camber and toe angle that helps it very much...hope this helps

wow, totally different approach I guess....my setup listed below is what makes me wonder why people bad mouth the Enzo.
To me its stabile, predicable, precise, well balanced and generally fun to drive.
Brake squirm is so minimal you ignore it, car will trail brake around any AI vessel, does well on bumps and while it seems to take forever to stop, it out brakes the fastest AI drivers by a silly big margin.
Lets not waste time with how fast the car is :D
Power on the car can be made to snap steer but that only happens when you decide to use all the beans too early. Sliding around a turn is easy, just dont think you can play drift car with it :D
I generally pass the lead Enzo at Sarthe before the 180... I'm sure real drivers will do it by the chicane. But truth told, I like tight tough tracks for the Enzo, including kart tracks.
I use a G-27 so this a wheel/pedal tune, no idea how DS3 would work
All mods including aero
Wing +25
tranny at 255mph max for Sarthe, probably should be more but I like my accel :D
LSD init 13
accel 36
brake 16
Ride 0 frt 15 rear
Spring 14.8 frt 15.4 rear
Damper Ext 8 frt 7 rear
Comp 6 frt 6 rear
A/R bar 6 6
Camber 1.6 frt 1.8 rear
Toe -.02 frt +.10 rear
Brakes 8 frt 5 rear

Positive camber on the rear? Lolwut? You have some secret GT5 update we don't know about?
 
One thing I hate about the Enzos is that they love trolling me by slowing down as I'm drafting them.

It's like their asking "U MAD BRO?" while I'm pretending my driver is flicking them off.
 
I used to do this in the Sunday cup in GT1. If I wanted the Mazda Demio to win (Out of the AI cars) I would make it so :D

Sounds fun, but I think the non-enzos are too slow to keep up. If you're bored of grinding La Sarthe there are plenty of other events that offer similar/better rewards. They just take longer, but in terms on ingame days it's better money.
 
I do the same thing when I get fed up doing hot laps, my challenge is how far down the pack can I bully the leading enzo and still win the race.
