Hello,
tl;dr: name the GT Sport Gr.3 cars that should be in a top 14 list, performance wise.
I'm starting a liveries project where I plan to represent the 14 teams from the WipEout game, on 14 different Gr.3 cars in GT Sport.
I want to pick appropriate Gr.3 cars, that kinda match the original country/style of the WipEout teams, and also perform good in GT Sport. It's pointless to do a cool design on a car that nobody will want to use because it's bad in its category. I need suggestions for that, especially from good players who have experience with various Gr.3 cars in serious events. Even if you don't know about WipEout!
So far I selected the following Gr.3 cars:
- Porsche 911 RSR (for Feisar team), as it seems very popular
- Subaru WRX (for Harimau or Goteki 45 team), as I'm a fan of this brand in real life
- Mitsubishi Lancer Evo (for Quirex team), as it's a good allround car I think, and legendary rival of the Subaru
- Dodge Viper SRT (for Piranha team), as it's pretty fast in top speed and seems to be appreciated by some players
- Honda NSX (for AG Systems team), since it's supposed to represent Japan and I think the Honda brand is the most iconic for that
Any really bad choices in these? I think they perform ok.
Now to choose the rest to fill the 9 remaining slots.
- I want to choose a BMW for Mirage team. What model do you recommend : Z4, M3 or M6?
- I need a car from the UK for Icaras team. What do you recommend : McLaren F1, McLaren 650S, or the latest Aston GT1?
- I need a car to represent USA for Auricom team. Is the Corvette C7 any good? Or should I go for a Ford (and which one)?
- What are good italian cars in the Gr.3 category : Ferrari vs Lambo vs Alfa, which should absolutely make it to the top 14?
Don't hesitate to name popular choices among expert racers, that you think should be in the final list.
Any inputs welcome
Thanks!
Edit:
Let me add info about the WipEout teams. As you can't destroy your car in GTS, the resistance caracteristics are useless info but I'll still mention it if it can help you understand the philosophy behind the car/ship and make appropriate suggestions.
Feisar (Europe) - good allrounder, very stable
AG Systems (Japan) - good allrounder, high stability and thrust
Quirex (Russia) - good allrounder, resistant
Auricom (USA) - high speed, not too stable, resistant
GOTEKI 45 (Makana island) - high thrust
Piranha (Brasi) - high speed, not too stable, resistant
Assegai (Africa) - good allrounder, but fragile
EG-X (China + Finland) - good thrust and speed
Icaras (UK) - good speed and stability, a bit fragile
Harimau (Malaysia) - good speed and stability, a bit less thrust and resistance
Triakis (Australia) - high speed, unstable, very resistant
Mirage (Arab Emirates) - good allrounder
Tigron (Russia) - high speed, balanced
Van Über (Germany) - good speed and very agile, a bit fragile
Also, to illustrate: I did a first try at the Harimau livery on the Falken BRZ. I intend to work harder for the Gr.3 liveries, I think it's a cool project for the WipEout fans out there who also play GT Sport.
