I was pretty sure the fastest car in the game was whatever
OmegaDoomp happens to be driving but what do I know, I don't drag race.

2. If you want the outright fastest car it is another well known fact that it is the Ultima GTR (called the Ultima GTR 740 on FM5), with the 33 Stradale, Agera getting the podium places.
3. For other difficulties just look at whatever the fastest cars tend to be on rivals and buy that one...
Also nice trick from GT6... They just don't allow you to tune your cars beyond the physics model, no car on the game can be tuned to faster than 500km/h (even ones that could probably go 550 with a faster gearbox)
1) You keep saying this and it just isn't true. Yes, the Veneno is a really, really good car to pick for S2 because it is naturally AWD and was designed to be so from the start. It is lightweight, it has good power, and with little to no tuning it is easy to rive for players of all skill levels. This does not make it the fastest car for online though. It depends n the locale you are racing in and there are plenty of other cars that can do well. I do not use the Veneno online but I have no problem beating it in any of my built S2 cars. In fact just last night, I ran the GRC Beetle, a Ferrari 458 Speciale, and a Fiat 595 Abarth and beat Venenos with each one of them.
4) The game does not allow you to tune past the limits of the physics model. This seems like it should be common sense, what would be the point of having such a good and realistic physics model if you could break it or bypass it at will. With the vehicles available in game and the engines and tires available the physics model does not allow for faster speeds. In fact, you will find that short of speed record attempts and the like there are no readily available production cars that go that fast. They are all limited to lower speeds by design and therefore drag, engine output, or realistically - people don't do it because there is nowhere a driver could go that fast 99% of the time. All the cars that do go faster aren't your typical car, they have all sorts of tweaks to allow them to go that fast and they aren't sporting little engines like the game offers; it's typically electric, hybrid, turbine etc. none of this - I have a 1.6L Rally Turbo motor that I tuned with gearing to go 400 kilometers..... If you want to avoid the in place physics model and race silly arcadey cars like that, then here's a nice trick from GT6 (go play GT6).
