That car is impossible to drive without wiping out, especially around the Nurburgring. I can’t stand how twitchy it is and attempting to take a corner and powering through it results in tire smoke, ssssssidewayz, and some chicken shit bull shit. I assume the X1 is the same? > > I bought a DC5R last night and fully modded it, for a FWD it hammers around the ring, 7:30 even after fucking up a couple times. > > I still have the GTR race car and I found out I have an NSX race car too if anyone has something they want to trade. No, the x2010 is insane. It “uses” similar fan tech that chaparral used in the 70’s to create downforce at super low speeds. most tracks you don’t even have to touch the brakes with it. > [@Election Day](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/election-day/38270/25): > > It’s like a formula GT on crack and steroids. It turns when you want to go straight and goes straight when you want it to turn… But when it actually does what you want it to, it’s holy shit fast. Got up to 275mph in seconds. yeah it’s got like 1500hp or something retarded like that > [@i can't believe theres no posts about the SNOW](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/i-cant-believe-theres-no-posts-about-the-snow/38293/2): > > wish I had a wheel… You don’t need no stinkin wheel!
