Owen PyrahThis may seem funny but I joined the Euro race last night and realised I've never properly raced GT3. I think I confused it with GT2 and was expecting to be able to pick the Ferrari 458 GT2. Seems to be a good series and, despite wobbling around at the back of the pack, the cars seem to be fairly well balanced. 

Has anyone driven many of the  GT3 cars enough to give a bit of perspective on which ones to choose based on their driving characteristics?

My take on it after enough racing with those at least:

- Huracan has the sheer power if you can keep it in the rev range always, in the straight it's unbeatable, can be a little edgy depending on the setup.
- 650s handles well, very precise, fast with enough aggressiveness but relatively slow in the straight (no V10). If you have a lambo in the slipstream you re done.
- R8 feels a bit of both the Huracan and 650s, good balance.
- Porsche R16 best handling imo, really feels the engine low and far back as it should be, i love it. Tyres not as much, can be an issue on some tracks.
- 488, drive it on the torque and very good things will happen. Altough probably the most difficult GT3 to tame, default setup is absolutely scary.
- AMG same than the 488, truck torque, no slouch in mid and high speed corners but less agile in slower ones (weight/front engine)
- Z4 very agile, good all around just a notch below the best ones on some tracks but can keep up well on some others.


And i agree AC's GT3 are well balanced and i think even true to their real counterparts, i don't know how they achieved that it's remarkable. Hopes up for ACC.
