Morning, evening and afternoon to you all..
Just wondering as i haven't had the time (or got the in game cash) to try out the new cars...
So a question to any that have tried them out, are they any good ? and by that i mean any good for racing, worth getting / replacing / adding to my garage...
Don't like wasting my hard earned cash so i thought i would ask the people i trust in this matters of racing...
Your input will be noted and valued.. Cheers guys.

Well just dragged against the new Zentorno? it took the adder about a mile to catch up to it and it was faster than the entity fullstop.. Guess it just depends how it handles on the corners??

I went into a RR1 race of 'Dipping In' last night with my Entity, expecting to be left standing by the new Zentornos.
However, I found that there was really very little in it between the cars on the winding stretches of road, and that on the long straight I actually seemed to gain ground on the Zentorno in front. Whether it's a different story in smaller circuits with more hard turns, I don't know, but having driven the Zentorno now I do have to say I find it a little too 'squirrely' and prone to step out at the back.
I've only had a brief go with an unmodded Massacro, but I found it pretty good, and reminiscent in handling to the Elegy. I'm going to have to run it through some circuits and see whether it could be a worthy successor.

Zentomo has vicious acceleration. Very much a "point and squeeze" car. Works pretty well once you come to terms with that.

I take it all back about the Zentorno!
Having now actually bought one, modded it up, and raced it as part of a 10-circuit playlist with PKcrazie and others last night, I've quickly fallen in love with this monster.
On flat circuits, I'm now actually finding it more stable than the Entity, possibly because it feels heavier and more planted. It's still prone to skid slightly, but can be pretty nicely corrected thanks to the thrust you get from acceleration, akin to the style of the old Carbonizzare.
I can only think the speed gains I saw on Zentornos in the Entity is, as Senilsson's suggested, perhaps due to the Entity carrying more speed out of corners?
Regardless, I love the Zentorno, both in performance and aesthetics. Can't wait to get the chance to tackle more races with this beast.

True, if you try to drive it like an Entity... Like I said, it's very much a "point and squeeze" car. You can't throw it into corners like the entity and expect to have good corner exit speeds. Slower entry speeds, slightly later apexes such that you can be "straighter" out of the corner, followed up with a hoof-full of throttle and it will rip your face off (in a good way). |

Yes most people agree that the Zentorno might currently be the best supercar. Without a doubt it's up there with the Entity and Turismo at least.
As for the other cars.. The Huntley SUV is pretty fast, likely faster than the small Baller. I've never owned a Baller so I can't compare. In any case it probably competes in the top tier. The Massacro sports car is tricky. It's really fast, but difficult to steer. It has a massive understeer, and when you finally get it to turn it almost makes a 180. However, there are a couple of guys in RRR who don't seem to have a lot of problems with it. I know I do though. It's very fast in the right hands, able to compete with the Elegy and the Jester, but I just couldn't get it to work.
The Thrust motorcycle is poop.
