sports Favorite Racecar(s)

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,561]

With the introduction of automobile racing over a century ago, there have been countless racing vehicles created by so many different companies, all for different classes, time periods, racing types, you name it. Racing cars at this point have been so incredibly diverse and it is a treat looking at them and seeing the many different configurations and types out there.

 

So with so many, I am sure any racing fan has a particular favorite car or cars, so let's choose those! What are some of your favorite racing vehicles of all time?

 

Possibly my top favorite is the Mercedes Benz SLS AMG GT3, a mighty mean machine of a racing car.

I am not hugely obsessed with cars in general but damn, that is a good looking vehicle.

Porsche's 911 GT3 R Hybrid (with electric motor for super fast acceleration)

 

Ferrari F40or50.. not quite sure (for classics)

 

actually i love many more... i think of cars as an art. same for games. (but not for all of them of course).

When it comes to racing I tend to follow the respective sport more-so than the cars themselves; however I must admit these two always manage to catch my eye.

 

Dodge Viper GTS-R (too bad Dodge stopped the factory program WAY sooner than they should've)

 

Lamborghini Huracan (or anything Lambo; my dream car company)

I'm in love with the Porsche 911. Specially with the GT3 RS

 

 

Is just so beautiful

The lowly Miata is something I always seen as a racecar. Sure the stigma of being a "chick car" and the bad stereotypes that surrounds it still lives but forget the haters. It's not everybody's cup of tea, I know... but the Miata is the perfect gateway drug into the world of racing if someone is willingly wanting to dip there toes in. In every given track event or empty mountain road, the Miata is always there putting out the most fun. What it lacks in speed gains in handling, in return can give even the most novice of drivers something like the feeling of the world's best formula one driver. Sure, it's a convertible and it looks like your sister's ride but the way you can just drive it to the limits would dethrone sports cars costing many times it's price.

I still love the classics. I love the Datsun 240Z!

[Darrala 269]

The car that i have the most fond memories of, Mika Häkkinen's Mclaren MP4/13. An absolutely gorgeous machine with a god-tier engine noise.

 

Warning for headphone users, like an F1 car should be, it's pretty damn loud:

Shelby Mustang. Any of them.

 

Also, listen to the badass V8 in the BMW Z4 GTLM/GT3:

[Courageous Thunder Dash 7,810]

The Mazda 787b that won the LeMans is my favorite racecar. That signature screaming 4-rotor is just music to my ears.

 

 

Also the Dodge SRT Viper GTS R has been a fave of mine since I was a kid.
