Okay, on the face of it, this sounds like a useless question. I've run the endurance races too many times before; I'm bored of them by now. But this question really goes a little deeper than "which cars".

Think of it: You've raced the car in GT2 for a while, doing 2 or 3 or even 5 lap races. Easy enough, right? But to stick with one car for up to 2 hours says how much you really like the car.

Now, the reason I ask this question is not necessarily to try new cars (I've nailed down just about every one of them!); but to find out what the most popular choices are. Thus, statistically, what are the cars of choice among our GT2-GTP members?

Post the cars you use for the enduros....tell me which ones; you don't really have to mention which races (I fully understand that you can't enter a Cerumo Supra in the Trail Mountain 30 lap event!)...just post the cars you like for the enduros.

And I'll keep the stat counter right here.

2 VW Beetle GT

for these Enduros or EVENTS, i enter my RSubaru Impreza WRX STi Ver. VI

It makes me really drive my car to it's full potential and also helps my dial in the specs on the suspension setup.

Altezza LM
GT One
Cerbera LM
R34 GTR

It's gotta be a car you really like other wise it can really start to suck.

try using a special car for the enurance races with hp limits, like spoon s2000, or mugen something like that. For the endurance races without hp limits, use the gt-one, of coarse 4wd's are always good :spam:
 
So far, the GT-One seems to be the favorite...tell me your enduro cars!
