I hate to admit it But the car I almost always used was a dark blue lancer evo 5, with everthing done to it, and rediculously close gear ratios... about 120km/h top speed haha... Used to kick arse though Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

1470 kph ismy best with the wheelie setup. Love it how it revs so hard in 6th gear once the back wheels leave the ground! Got to love the crash into the wall at the end though...

My GTS Viper is just over 1100hp, and has every option ticked and tuned, it rips up in all gears. rips up in 5th from idle, mwahaha R34 GTR is fully tweak with 1075hp, but is a ******* to drive then all the usual rice mobiles tweaked extremely. Will have to get the PS2 out and get a lap time going. Will munch you all :mrgreen:

Everyone can always do better. At least you posted a time, no one else seems to care. I am going to jump back on and try to better mine and your lap times round Tokyo. Well you choose a car and track and see how we go. ps. IMHO the Escudo is a cheaters car full stop. It should only be used fo rthe hill climb, but almost everyone uses it for regular races. :roll: Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

The best car by far (apart from the polyphony1 and 2) is the R390 LM race car! It ****s all over the viper... The PS2 is warming up, back with some records soon Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Twinvl, you cant possibly compare the Viper to the R390 LM, they are in totally different classes. I agree though its a nice car and does deserve recognition. 8) Best car to do up.... hehehehehe read all my posts and you might get my opinion. I dont care, I love the Viper. Also any GTR is a good car to do up (stereotype I know). RX7's, Corvettes, Cobras... Most are good. That polyphony Indy car is mad. I cant get over how quick you can take corners in the thing. Might go fire up the PS2 and try to get a new record going. New track and car starting Friday... Toyota Supra (new one) fully bombed or R34 GTR (can be vspec II if you want) fully bombed running around say... SS Special Stage Route 11 (forward not reverse) or Apricot Hill (forward). Some one else choose the track. Side note - I assume you are all playing arcade mode, what does everyone think of the complex string track in free run? I think its a blast? that shuld be a challenge too later on. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

you can get a fair amount of cars to do decent drifts just by putting normal tyres on the back and some hards on the front, or whateva u prefer on the front. with the final gear ratio... shorten it down.. and then stiffen up as much as u can ie. front rear stabiliser bars etc.. there is a start. as for times for me.. havent had a proper stab yet but.. Castrol Supra, Apricot Hill (normal direction), 1:14.210 Ollie

okay i just read the ALL the thread and its pretty poor top speed..go buy a s6 rx7 do an zoorst and port polish and chip and sim tyres and you will drift dont worry about suspesion..you wont really need it..just get some decent speed..and youll be fine..i have a s13, truneo, rx7 and some other set up but a std rx7 is just easy cause once you get to a certain point in the drift it starts to turn too much and ya loose it.. and putting it up a gear usually helps getting out of the drift nice..
