I find Test Course annoying since it gets boring after a couple of laps not to mention some cars have higher top speeds than others. I remember I was using the Denso Sard Supra vs the LMP Race Cars and I only lasted 5 laps after that I couldn't catch up. I had the Supra upgraded of course the top speed was 240 but because I wasted so much time pitting the other cars took a long lead.

I also find the Skyline Race Cars annoying I have to look for a good lineup that doesn't include Skylines each time I do a race. I like to race against other race cars like the Supras,NSX's, maybe the European Race cars as well.:banghead:
 
Hmm, I'm surprised this didn't get more replies. I thought everyone liked talking about what they hate. :-p

I'm not a fan of the city courses in general (though I love Tokyo). Least favorite is probably Hong Kong.

There are plenty of cars I don't like, so I don't allow them in my garage. As for racing against, I find the BMW's tend to sneak up and pass me on the last lap when I'm not looking.
I don't like driving anything less than 100hp and the Cizeta drives like a barge - but at least it's fast.
 
Hong Kong without a doubt is my least favorite, probably because I continually struggle with it. Especially the part around the pier/waterside (whatever you call that area). The racing line is so narrow I wind up hitting the wall with any speed. Otherwise I have to slow down and I get run over every time.

Tskuba and Autumn Ring are too slow and tight for my tastes, unless I'm driving a low HP car.

Finally, all of the dirt/snow tracks aren't any fun, especially Grand Canyon. Too long and too tight. I'm not much for off road racing. Maybe I'll learn to appreciate it someday.

As far as cars are concerned, I'm really disappointed with most of the RUF autos. They handle terribly, and the braking is horrendous on the Yellow Bird. Maybe I haven't learned how to drive it. Too much horsepower for too little reward.

I'd rather drive a car with a tendency to oversteer than understeer any day. Most of the U.S. muscle cars are fun to fool around with, but they generally handle like garbage.

Update:

Now that I have a steering wheel, (finally, after nearly a 10 year hiatus) I'm discovering that Hong Kong and the rest of the city circuits are actually fun. The test course, Montegi oval, and the drag strip aren't very exciting.
 
Well I can't use a wheel for toffees, which is bad if I'm going to learn to drive in a few years. I usually use DS2, but every time I race on Hong Kong, the AI start forcing me into walls :mad:

As far as cars are concerned, I must say they're alright. All I want to know is why there is an '06 Eclipse GT in a game released in 2005 :crazy:
