GT5 Ferrari Enzo

Hi, two days ago i bought this magnificent car on GT5, i fully tuned it and it produces 929hp, i even installed the spoiler.. love this car BUT... it's so damn hard to drive, it doesn't handle like you would expect from a Ferrari Enzo and it feels like you're driving a tractor when it comes to turning and cornering, it just feels so harsh and there is a lot of understeer, especially when you accelerate on exits. I've tried all the driving options and different settings for the suspensions etc.. i've been testing this car for the past two days in all sorts of tracks, but unfortunately it didn't have much improvement.. any suggestions from those who have this car or at least have driven it??

i din't get to it last night, but after i'm done with work today (in an hour or so) it'll be one of the first things i'll do, after a quick and light dinner, of course... :)

edit: btw did you find any good cars to finish the historic car event (the one with historic racing cars) on the expert series, i have only two events in the expert series left and i have spent a fortune to find the most suitable cars to win gold on these events without any luck... :)

I've got the Enzo as well. Around the Nurburgring, it likes to skip across any irregularities in the track and get airborne - for a surprisingly long period of time - over any rise in the terrain. I softened the suspension a bit, and that maybe helped a tiny bit. Still just not a very fun car to drive.

Your best bet would be to go over to the GTPlanet website, and check out the tuning section in their forums.

I don't think I did much with the engine. Since it doesn't handle well now, I figured giving it more horsepower would only make it worse. I think I lightened it as much as possible and gave it fully adjustable suspension. I also added the little wing on the back. Soft racing tires too of course.

Enzo? well there's your problem.

Get the Zonda R, sure its got less power than your Enzo, but it sticks to road so well if you spend some time tuning it, the power-to-weight ratio also kills the Enzo anyday.

That's because it hasn't front wheel drive. FANBOY for SAAB here http://ideas.gtplanet.net/pages/most_wanted_cars.

did you put a good set of racing tires on it? it helps a lot. i have yet to drive the enzo. a lot of ppl say that the lambos are really crappy to control, but my 750hp murcielago lp670 is actually one of my favourite cars cuz i dunno its just really fun to drive. the handling in the lambos are bad yea but put some racing tires on it and it helps a lot.

Did you double check to make sure that you have racing soft tires on? Sometimes I forget these and they make a world of difference.

Edit: also make sure you install the chassis upgrade and lighten the car as much as you can (you probably did this but its worth checking)

Ive been having the same problem with my newley wasted amount of credits..(Enzo Ferrari) as FortifedConcept has been having. I've been trying to beat the Indy track race for the "Like the Wind" Series. Its fast as hell, but cant turn the banks doing any more than 130mph. For at least 5 hours of tweaking the suspension and limited slip, no avail.. would saving up again to get the Zonda be a better option?

Get a racecar, the minolta is brilliant.

Most of the "race car's" are rediculously priced. I did happen to find the Camaro SS Race Car, even though after the 1.5 mil credit, i had to rebuild the engine. It's a great car, and Ive been using that to regain 40-65 thousand credits per "that" race. The other race car's featured in that series are like 4 mil that I've come across. I guess ill have to keep playing for another few days to get some money back.

You need to change the chamber of your wheels. the more chamber you have will help, this will not raise or lower the wheel but put more on an angle of it instead which will help through cornering. Normally what happens when cornering at high speeds in normal set up is that ties on the out side of the car will want to lift area from the surface becuase of the amount of speed and G forces that are taking place. So when the wheels have more angle also know as chamber when cornering it means the car whill be leaning on the surface more providing better grip giving you better speed through the corners and better turn abilitys. a down side to having more chamber is that the wheel will be at an angle so when going along on a straight less of the wheel will be on the surface providing less grip meaning slower top speed, slow accleration and slower breaking. Its all about finding the balance with the settings to what suits you

Use the Mazda Furai you win early on in B-spec, or the minolta you win from "Like the Wind" A-spec. Here's a list of the prize cars for races link

Oops its "Like the Wind" ur trying to beat doh lol. You also win the 09' Zhonda R from GT world championships B-spec though for that one i used the C60 Hybride Judd Race car...

You can beat like the wind with a race modified corvette zr1.

I finally beat the Indy circut last night, after at least 10 hours total of racing it, which is fine because i got a total of at least 1.7mil in credits just last night alone and a ticket for racing a course 100 times or whatever the distance was. Chevy Camaro LM "Racecar." Ive been wanting to get a vette, so i'll see what i can swing to get the z1.

^ just make sure to do the race mod to it first before buying any other parts for it...

Ahhh.. I never actually did the Race mod to any of my cars, i figured it just add's everything on and changes the aesthetics a bit..Its worth it?

No car with 1000hp is going to handle well under full throttle lol.

My Enzo is a killer, I run racing softs whenever allowed (even in endurance races where you'd think a harder compound will get you further)... I painted it PINK, too. Not that the paint helps the handling, I just think it's funny to see a pink Enzo whippin' on the competition.

:D
