Yet another pleasant surprise from a concept car! This time it is the Toyota FT-86 G Sports Concept.

At 900 kg, you would expect this car to be agile and quick. And yes, it is very much so. Handling is brilliant. Although a FR car, it is very much neutral. Rotation is amazing. In fact, this car has best of both worlds - stability of a FR car and responsive rotation of a MR car.

I have stolen a tune by @AngHell. Some of the settings, I must say, are rather extreme. For example, he uses extreme soft front spring but stiff rear spring. Brake balance is very low as well. But boy, it works and that's what matters! I am able to achieve a lap time of 6 32 (not as good as Mr AngHell's 6 2x :embarrassed:).

Good suggestion. One of my favorites, even more so at 550PP with RS tires. Fast! Thank you

Glad that u enjoy it. The thing that surprised me about this car is its extremely responsive rotation, but without the touchy feeling about spinning out in an MR car.
