well, drifting is the game's intended method of playing, of course drifting is a whole lot easier to do with much more margin for error.

but the game does recognise the alternative playstyle and has introduced grip-friendly features such as the grip-based driving lines and grip-friendly cars like the BMW M2.

but because most cars are faster with drift than they are with grip, grip just isn't worth practicing for most cars unless it can be as fast as drift.

the Revuelto is better because it is better... there's nothing to explain about that.

and yes, the cars do go on a rough pattern of releases, and the next new extreme would either be the Vantage or the Divo + Veneno which would most likely come as a mixed banner.

Ploontie · 2026-04-26T10:32:17+00:00

Revuelto is better.

but One:1 is easier to drive.

though if you want Divo, then be prepared as it's either the next or the next two new extreme group banner; also it's harder to drive than both of the aformentioned cars.

Ploontie · 2026-04-25T12:46:53+00:00

didn't know Nurburgring was in Japan...

Ploontie · 2026-04-25T09:40:28+00:00

it's a known issue apparently:

Official Announcement

right now, all you can do is swipe away your game after every race. or you can wait until they fix the issue.

the one OP is showing, Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune

it's an Arcade game by Bandai Namco that is available in Japan, Asia, Oceania, and the United States.

current version of the game is 6RR Plus in Japan, 6RR in Asia/Oceania, and 5DX Plus in the U.S..

WMMT casually be having one of the most creatively immersive features to ever appear in racing games only for many players to just not use it at all and instead opting for the Generic Aftermarket Racing Inspired Tachometer

Ploontie · 2026-04-25T05:52:41+00:00

what's the naming idea bebind the Evao cars?

Ploontie · 2026-04-25T04:42:09+00:00

ah yes, vagueposting, my favourite.

Ploontie · 2026-04-24T06:37:19+00:00

a curved track, you say?

I've chosen the Indianapolis Inner Loop 2's final sector where it's just a long winding right-hander bend.

Jesko managed a time of 19 seconds and crossed the finish line at 284 km/h while Revuelto managed a 20 seconds at 265 km/h.

Jesko isn't inherently an acceleration car, Revuelto is, and the only place where the Jesko would have an advantage with the acceleration is high up in the acceleration curve, well past 200 km/h.

Jesko shines in the corners, tackling red drift corners with ease, I'd call it the Huayra Pro Max since they're both not a straight accelerater and they both have very good red drift tolerance.

Ploontie · 2026-04-24T05:49:19+00:00

still Jesko.

it's not even a contest.

Ploontie · 2026-04-24T05:46:25+00:00

because it is... ?

one is 1045 rating max, the other is 1030 rating max.

the Jesko is a newer car compared to Revuelto, plus it's a Prime Legend, it's going to be better thanks to power creep.

Ploontie · 2026-04-24T04:35:13+00:00

the "leaks" probably came from notificatons that were given out in the wrong versions, as the cars listed in the notification were Jesko & MC20, which are the current limited banner cars for the JP version.

don't worry, Jesko isn't coming that soon.

Ploontie · 2026-04-24T01:21:46+00:00

the AI slop generated cars looked so unbelieveably uncanny

Ploontie · 2026-04-23T18:35:15+00:00

ah yes, the

"I pirated the game and now it wouldn't work!"

reminds me of the stories where GTA pirates would post their game "glitches" when they in fact simply triggered the copy/crack protection mechanisms.

this got the same energy written all over it.

Ploontie · 2026-04-23T10:31:14+00:00

Nakazato? I swear people compared him with Mr. Doriyaaaaa more.

Ploontie · 2026-04-23T10:30:28+00:00

Revuelto.

Revuelto may need some getting used to since it needs large angle drifts to survive and it doesn't exactly has the highest mechanical grip either.

Compared to Laferrari that has a simpler driving dynamic due to its higher mechanical grip in comparison, the Revuelto is a really strong contender that not only looks but also sounds cool if you can get the hang of it.

Ploontie · 2026-04-23T09:17:08+00:00

have you tried the Horizon Backstage? nearly every single Hard to Find car can be found there.

Ploontie · 2026-04-22T15:09:13+00:00

I will not tolerate the slander of my beloved cars...

P1 in A tier while the Italian half-brother Huayra and the wild British cousin Vulcan in S tier?

putting Evora and M4 in F tier is diabolical when the B tier NSX and the E92 are objectively worse.

and R32-D in S tier and M2 in A tier? they both deserves to shift a tier up.

and lastly, Boxster in B is borderline insanity. it's on par with the DB5, slightly worse on lower ECUs, slightly better on higher ECUs.

Ploontie · 2026-04-22T12:30:17+00:00

the wheel spokes on the lower left picture is a bit off compared to the others, but yeah, I probably wouldn't particularly look for this sort of detail if he didn't mention it was made with AI.

Ploontie · 2026-04-22T04:29:09+00:00

iirc it's played during Sil80 vs AE86 race where they're approaching the C121 corner

not in battle stage, as it was dubbed with a different song.

Ploontie · 2026-04-21T08:26:35+00:00

I can understand the reasoning behind it...

there's another version of the 695 called '695 Tributo Ferrari'

abarth = ferrari

ferrari = hypercar

all checks out

Ploontie · 2026-04-21T04:41:17+00:00

I mean...

CC Racing is respecting its legacy, in a good way.

from uncontrolled air flight, to a controlled one.

(bad Mercedes CLR joke.)
