I absolutely HATE:

CHAPARRAL 2J: 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 ...
LOTUS ELISE: I hate it since GT2...
NASCARS: I still wonder why on earth you americans like this "cars"...
GT BY CITROEN RACE CAR: Badass looking car... but its really slow...

BTW people... I love the Veyron! I have 2 of them :)... wait... in 2 hours they'll be 3 :dopey:!!! Can't wait to have them Premium!!! ;)

Yeah. and Nascars run on LEADED Petrol

um, no they dont. they ran on 100 octane unleaded fuel, and now they are switching to Fuel injection, and E85 to modernize the cars.

to me, its the sound out out by almost every car with a stage 3 engine tune, and full race titanium exhaust. especially american V8s, because they then sound like hondas.
 
Veyron - really can't stand the ugliness of that car. I totally don't care about them, whatsoever.
Skylines - there's always a ton of them in the UCD (not to mention in the game itself).

VEYRON !!!!

This epic hatred was born when i was drifting rather spectacularly at Tsukuba.
When suddenly a complete ....... decided to take a tank with 4wd and 1000bhp "drifting"
To him that meant go round the track without drifting and just hit everyone.

Since then many of his.. COUGH.... ITS offspring have returned many a time to ruin my day again.

Now I make sure I HOST THE SERVER so those GT Wreckers can get lost and play Burnout or NFS.
 
I can't stand anything that has 30hp or less, unless everyone else is using something just like it and I'm racing in a small city track. I also can't stand the FGT. Snap oversteer and my solid blue FGT makes me sick everytime I look at it :yuck:
 
Old seventies slowpokes in the Daytona when running in the supercar challenge.. they always find they way on my driving line even when I attempt to avoid them as soon as I spot them, which gets expensive since usually there's a quite large speed difference and the AI is a moron.
 
GT by Citroen Race Car. I love the car itself, I just can't stand the cockpit.

Hahaha that made me laugh. And yes, I feel the same way about Nascar. What dumb piece of **** invented that sport?

As Southpark said......"You've got to be poor and stupid to like this sport!".

Bill France Sr. His son catapulted the sport into what it is today. I have tons of respect for both. And, apparently, one of the few around here that does.

The McLaren F1. Doesn't hanlde worth a damn, is very slugish in acceleration, and most of all doesn't achieve the 231mph top speed! Not even the Stealth F1 hits the kind of numbers the real one does, and it even has some additional racing/sports upgrades. It is the only car that I use Skid on when I go to grind a series. Worthless car, glad I didn't have to spend 1 million credits to find out. Heard the Enzo doesn't handle much better. I barely finished Dream Car championship and I even had to skip a race because of rain and then I had to race on a rainy 24h Nurb. 👎

The Veyron - but only because of Online. If I see another kid in a Veyron roll up to me while I'm driving my Mustang Cobra-R and challenge me to a "pink slip race"... I think I'm going to fly to Japan and punch Polyphony in the face myself. It should've never been a prize car, most especially one that is awarded so easily. Annoying that it's Standard too and that I couldn't get it in the classic Red/Black two tone. :(

Anything that is fuel efficient, uses an alternative fuel, or anything with an engine smaller than bottle of coke. Of the 800 Standard cars about 150 of them could probably be cut from the game and nobody would notice. Same goes with dupliciates of cars... like the many faces of the Skyline.

Any road car that has been maxed out and then has racing soft tyres on.

You said it. I don't understand the draw of buying a road car you like and then throwing tuning parts at it until it's completely NOT that car any more. Very light street-based tuning and Sports-Soft is all I do for a car that I'm gonna run online against my friends.



The Leno Tank Car annoys people? What the? Were you people expecting something different? It's a gigantic beast with a TANK ENGINE in it, for cripes sake! The Veyron is along the same lines. Why would you expect it to turn? Hell, it doesn't even go in a straight line very well. :)


No specific Skyline or RX-7 or whatever actually annoys me, though the preponderance of them in the UCD does get tiresome at times. I'd really like to see some of that UCD space filled with a car I want/need rather than the 3rd Skyline or STI or Miata.


The only car that actually gets under my skin is the Lamborghini Muira. I don't know much about it, but I find it difficult to believe that it's capable of the performance it shows in this game. Maybe Kaz has one or wants one badly or something. Whatever the reason, it's my nemesis in more than one race, as well as the crazy IB-10 license test.

The "dumb piece of ****" your referring to is "Big" Bill France Sr. Founded NASCAR in 1948. It's since become the 2nd most popular sport in America.

It's amazing how the most basic lack of knowledge can bring out the sheer ignorance of people. Show more respect.

As for cars I dislike, I think I'll jump on the Veyron bandwagon.
 
Absolutely hate the Shelby Cobra.

The over the top stats completely fooled me as i stupidly upgraded it into a 730hp/900kg monster thinking it would help me completely decimate the historic car race.

Then i took it for it's maiden race with TCS 1 and ABS 1....

Never felt so cheated.

Well America is not the world. 2nd most popular sports for rednecks in pickup trucks. No other country has this thing called NASCAR, thank god.
Talk about ignorance.
 
Jay Leno tank car...A completely worthless oddity

The car costs about $4 million USED -- So far I've won TWO as prizes and they have NO resale value?!?:banghead: How is that even possible??🤬

PD needs to make sure every car has some sort of resale, especially since they decided to put such arbitrarily high prices on so many of them...👎

Actually Canada, Mexico, some South American countries, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and even New Zealand and Great Britain have Stock Car racing as well. While not all are as crazy regulated as NASCAR its all similar.

To prevent turning this thread into a flame war, as well as drawing mods in, I'll stop here:


1. I never said anything about "the world", did I? That honor would go to what, soccer/football?

2. That is very stereotypical. As well as immature. GTP is a professional enough website to avoid this type of behavior.

3. Going beyond being stereotypical, one may assume you're attacking America's sports in general. The way I understand it, you're saying the NFL is the 1st most popular sport for rednecks in pickup trucks? If so, thats some mighty thin ice you're walking on.

4. Just a random question. Do you think NASCAR is "easy"? I mean easy is in, "A bunch of idiots turning left, going in circles for 4 hours".

Thats all.

Yes, football is the n°1 sport in the world, like it or not but it has nothing to do with cars, Formula 1 is still more popular in the world then NASCAR and it's not in GT5 except for the fictional Formula GT championship or the useless Ferrari's.

Ok it is a common stereotype but it was in all humour, nothing evil, just like swiss people are known to be slow and french people always have a baguette under their arm and british people all eat fish and chips for breakfast.

And yes i do think NASCAR is easy, it's all about endurance, and kind of boring. Isn't it true most americans watch it for the crashes??

Any idiot could have come up with the idea of racing 500laps oval tracks with the same cars.

IMO
It's a disgrace to the automobile sports, nothing too technical and no engineering advancements like in Formula 1.

It should NOT have been in GT5, but everyone has different tastes and i respect them.

To keep on topic
Still the NASCARS in GT5 are one of my most annoying cars with the Lotus Elise.

And this is why it's got the rep it does. The fact is, you are just blantantly wrong.

NASCAR is just as much if not MORE technically advanced than F1, although it isn't advertised. American audiences tend to care more about the racing (i.e. swapping paint) than all the flashy lights and cool looking power and torque graphs. So you don't see much tech on TV coverage. But behind the scenes, there is a HUGE amount of cutting edge technology and simulation going on.

One of the things that make it so technically challenging is that by definition, NASCAR tries to wring as much performance and speed as possible out of heavy cars using "new" 30 year-old technology. Do you think getting 850hp out of a carbureted 355ci engine at 9000 rpm's, for 4 continuous hours is easy? (Not to mention the physical and mental stamina required to sit in 120* heat for that long while driving 200mph an inch away from cars on both sides).

BTW - How many world class F1 drivers have tried NASCAR, and won a championship? How many have tried and failed to win a single race, and left the sport with the utmost respect for what it is and what it takes to win? You can get back to us on that if you'd like. :)

With all of that said, my biggest dissapointment in GT5 is probably (ironically enough) the NASCAR cars, simply because GT5 does nothing but promote an even more negative opinion on the sport due to how poorly they represent it. I've been a fan of NASCAR for 20 years... but GT5 is starting to make me rethink that. :lol:

EDIT:

IF GT5 would have put all 43 cars on Bristol and started us around row 10 of a 500 lap race... I wonder how many people would have a whole different opinion after fighting through to the end? Ehhh... now that I think about it, I wonder how many here could make it to the end. :)

NASCAR is advanced in the extremely modern ways of using old technology...Much like F1 the teams does a ton of rig-testing, simulation, windtunnel work, and using advanced manufacturing method to turn out "old" parts. At least at the cup level. I find the series annoying in the fact that they refused to acknowledge that. It just makes it look artificial in that regard....

Hehe no sorry I won't rethink about dissing the whole sport. I'm truly sorry for offending people here but my opinion is set and won't change.

Edit: This is absolutely nothing against American sports by the way, I love watching ice hockey and American football. Oh and I like McDonalds :-)
 
any car that has less than 100hp. It's just boring, I rather drive a car that is very hard to handle which is more fun to me.

Also all those gt4 looking standard cars which is so stupid.
