we all know that anyone can over power these guys to win. But what is the least powerful car you had in horsepower to win this race or the indy 500? Ive won in a 764hp FGT, and working with a 821hp Audi R8 05' LMP. im going to try for lower here. whats your record for least HP?
 
I did it in one of the Honda NSX Super GT cars...barely. Don't recall exactly now but I assume I tuned the engine to Stage 3.
 
Don't think there are too many cars capable of doing it below le-mans spec?

You need some fairly decent downforce to keep it round the corners. Maybe the mazda furai?
 
Mazda Furai, 562HP if I recall.

Good call. ;)
 
The Furai... :) Every time I use it there an Epic High Speed Race occurs :)

Haha yeah. I just completed the Like the Wind series with the Furai, probably the most epic race I've had on GT5 so far. The 3 cars behind me finished within 0.3 of a second after me after some rigorous blocking after the final corner.

Anyway, the Furai would definitely be lowest HP car able to win that series. With it's mega down force and ultra light weight making up for the lack of HP.
 
On the cheapo, nothing beats the Corvette ZR1 RM. Makes it a piece of cake. If you have already bought the Formula Gran Turismo hit it in and they'll barely see you flashing fast beside them.
