I was wondering about YOUR views on "ultralightkins"... those super-light, teeny tiny cars:

* Lotus Elise
* Motorsports Elise
* Opel Speedster
* ZZ
* ZZII

From my personal experience, they're neat cars, but require a lot of talent to use properly, not to mention the stock Elise and Speedster are in dire need of lighter flywheels! :p I usually opt for "heavier" cars, but with more power (ergo, TVR, which is IMHO an excellent manufacturer). However, the one exception is [obviously] the Escudo... underpowered doesn't describe that bad-a~~ little puppy! :cool:

NEway, my main gripe about the Elise, Speedster, and ZZ is their parabolic acceleration... (I haven't driven the ZZII yet).
 
Elise... that name enrages all the hatred in me...
Opel Speedster... Love it !! Fully moded it proves to be neat to drive..
ZZ... Weird shaped and low powered little thing. However fun to drive
ZZII... Fully moded at over 900 Hp... Whoa !! Great fun and challenge to drive !! Excellent handling at a reasonable power range but outrageous at over 700 Hp.
 
I have loved those sort of cars since the Elise was avilable to buy on GT2. Funily enough the Motorsport Elise makes an ok rally car. Bu the opel speedster has to be the one. I always have to buy an orange one though (just like the one in MSR :sleep: )
 
they say a picture is worth a thousand words...

I dont think the zzii turns bad if you put horses on it. If you put the VCD controlls at 50/50 it should be easy to control.
