Default Whats the quickest and fastest cars everyone has been in...

Fastest out right for me has to be karls 3door....

The quickest on the road has to be the Twin Engined nova....man that was nuts...

Quickest on track would be the Xtr2, cornering speed from these new style cars is amazing..

Mikes car round the ring, and a ferrari 360. The Ferrari felt slow, probably because it was NA and didn't feel that punchy(probably also because the driver wasn't the owner and he didn't want to thrash it too much), it also felt effortless.

It felt like we were doing 80 when we were doing 130!!

I think cars like this, Radicals, JP1's etc are just mindblowing Been in Martins, Ronnies, a 4x4 400bhp Dax Rush and loads of other FAST cars in a straight line, but you DO get used to the performance.....

I think it takes ALOT longer to get used to or bored of how fast these new generation of PROPER trackcars can corner

Fastest on the road for me is my ex girlfriends old man's 8.4 twin supercharged v8 1kbhp+ pontiac firebird, made 200mph easily and the acceleration at high speeds was mindblowing.
It was just more or less linear acceleration, no matter what speed it was already going as soon as he floored it you got pinned in your seat the same way.

Oh, been in Karls 3-dr too, but he didn't wind it up as it was a bit damp so as far as I'm concerned I don't know what all the fuss is about

fook knows, been out in soooo many fast cars , all cossies ect, the fastst feeling car has to be a xr2 turbo, but only cause the acceleration of the fooker was mental at 20psi , but as for top speeders its gotta be YUM360 but that never felt fast as it was sooooo quiet and comfortable to be in, thought we was doing about 70ish and we was doing 120 to 130 , not been in it top speed though, but seeing the boost gauge fly round and then go straight of and keep accelerating was mental, just cant belive how well balanced and set up daves car is

there are alot ive been out in though , i wouldnt say mines the fastest though

That car sounds cool as fook!

I love the big american V8 engines!

My fastest has been a 420bhp 200sx on the road and a Honda Accord Ex Touring car around Snetterton, OMG the brakes and cornering speed of that thing were amazing.
