We take a selection of track cars from a variety of generations and see how they all compare. Can the modern high tech vehicles stand a chance against the old lightweight monsters ?

  1. Lots of good cars, though I wouldn't bet against the older track cars. Weight, weight, weight, or less of it! Quad exhuast has been done right on a handful of cars, most notably the earlier Zondas, later Corvettes, a few Lambos, and a few others that escapes me. The one Lexus did and that M4 (among Lots of questionable design points…) Not so much!

  2. The 360 doing insane things because it has some of the most insane brakes in the game. I've actually had AI driving the 360 bumb and run me before, because it was expecting to brake so damn late.

  3. Sometimes I think I am the only person in the world who cannot stand the Ferrari 360. I think its an awfully bland car when you compare to its predecessors like the 512 testarossa or 355, and its successor the f430 which are much more lively and attractive vehicles imo.

  4. The new 2023 BMW 3.0 CSL has the grille that should be placed on all 3 series and 4 series to remove that awful crap.
    Nobody says no to big grilles.
    The problem is the absolute lack of good tase, or design to what BMW did with this beaver teeth idea of theirs. I mean, fire that schmuck of a chief designer and all the designers that were involved with these monstrosities. Also the ones in the iX1 and XM projects as well, because they are also carrying on these things without any good design in them.

  5. The new grill on the bmw is so ugly it has retroactively ruined every bmw for me. The m1 is the only one I'm still able to enjoy the looks of, since it doesn't have a noticeable grill on the front.

  6. Were those old cars on new tires? The racing tires from the olden days only had the grip of modern passenger car tires, think Malibu or Taurus. No brakes, no traction control nothing, they would have lost everything. The F40 should have done much better, not lower than 3rd. Its very light, good acceleration, 200 mph car, oldest car on credible performance tires.
    Makes me wonder if any of the programmers have ever even drove a car bigger than a Fiat, probably mostly scooter types.

  7. Random as hell story time that I'm sharing because I find it humorous and somewhat in place due to the car being in today's field:

    When I was a young kid and I played this small 3d blocky game known as Roblox there was a group of games I'd play revolving around cars known as Ultimate Driving…. In said series/group of games which helped me grow into the (what I would say amateur) enthusiast I am; they introduced a Ferrari F40 and I decided to do what would be a trademark for myself in any racing/driving game spanning from Roblox, to NFS, to Forza, to GTA, and any games I take time to play where an F40 is presented:
    Painting it a dark metallic blue with a plate reading "BLUEF40"

    It has annoyed every single one of my fellow young car enthusiasts (however I'm glad they still accepted me after such an "hellacious sin to a classic Italian super car" and we've grown up into our late teen years laughing and reminiscing of our oddities over the years), and to this day I get the occasional pissed off Italian Stallion enthusiast, however there is the occasional person who finds it just as intriguing as I do.

    The "Shockingly Blue F40", as I like to call it, has been a staple of my life for over a decade, and being the odd one out in car meets and among my friends with such an off brand and quirky design choice has given me plenty of smiles, laughs, and extremely good memories that I'm glad to share to some strangers over the internet who share a very strong and similar passion to vehicles.

    Thank you for your time of reading such a random ramble and nostalgia trip for myself, and you all have a swaggy remainder of your day.

  8. The looks of the new 4-series have grown on me since it was first revealed. The grille definitely makes a lot more visual sense on the M cars than the lesser models, but either way I don't think it's as sinfully ugly as people make it out to be. I actually saw an i4 M earlier today (grey & black, as they all seem to be these days) and thought it was quite handsome, in its way. I think the grille being tall & narrow allows for a more shark-like front end like older BMWs had, which is no bad thing.
