after my jaw droped at the pristing handling of this car, The '64 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe (Anniversary ed), at how it just sticks its rubber with ZERO wheelspin on Brute Supercharged Accelleration, (Apricot Hill, coming out of every Apex) (TC and all AIDS @0)

it literally pixel for rubber, translates every tire mark to brute accel, I never seen anything like it in GT5/6, and I'm talking about going from 70km, watching it climb stead to over 130~140 and on and on... with the G forces practically present without them being there in my inanimate chair.

whereas take over 50% of any other modern day car on the same tire compound, and it skates all over the track with red tires,

why is this, I ask? what could be the factors, other than ...(insert here) ?

is it perfect suspension setup? is it the look of the car, that appears to have most of it's weight over the drivetrain? (as most modern day sport cars are doing it seems, ala Viper SRT / Alfa TZ3 STradale style,)

is it just a perfect FD ratio to tire size? what ever it is, I want this in more cars!

Turn SRF off, and buy comfort hard tires... Now you will happytail that car...

SRF, what is that? I only use it if it's forced on to win a seasonal for easy CR for my engine and body upgrades.
 
Put it this way... not too much hp, absolutely huge rear tires.
