| − | The least powerful car in the game, but far from being the least fun. In fact, the closest races are to be had when behind the wheel of this car. Certainly not suited to the faster tracks however.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Stiffer springs than usual to make up for the lack of antiroll bars, and will help generate some tyre heat. Pump plenty of air into those rear tyres or it will understeer to hell.

| − |
| |
| − | An excellent car for beginners and experts alike, no other car in LFS is so universally driven as the XF GTi, from first-time-driver to seasoned league pro. It responds well to setup adjustments, and is a stable chassis that will teach a driver some invaluable lessons about pushing it to its limits, whilst retaining a degree of inherent stability and forgiving handling.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Don't overlock the differential, although more power-locking helps put the power down since the XF GTi doesn't have a two-way adjustable differential, you will also kill off the oversteer that you'll need to put into the setup to make the car steerable with the throttle.
| |

| |
| − | === XR GT (XRG) ===
| |
| − | [[image:XRG.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Front engined, rear wheel drive<br>
| |
| − | Engine: 1.8 litre inline 4<br>
| |
| − | Power: 104 kW (140bhp) @ 5945 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Torque: 186 Nm (137 lbft) @ 4603 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Total Mass: 1167 kg (2572 lbs)<br>
| |
| − | Power-weight: 90 W/kg (122 bhp/ton)<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Weight dist: 54.3 F 45.7 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 65 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A perfect car for practicing the fine art of driving RWD on the limit. Plenty of power to keep even the most tail happy drivers amused, but not enough to brown your pants on every exit. A car that will pave the way to handling some of the more frightening motors out there in LFS. A good match for the XF GTi although slightly faster (in a straight line)!
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' A fairly neutral setup is best for this car since it suffers very little from power oversteer. Play with differential locking so you can steer with the throttle to your liking.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === XR GT Turbo (XRT) ===
| |
| − | [[image:XRT.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Front engined, rear wheel drive<br>
| |
| − | Engine: 2.0 litre turbocharged inline 4<br>
| |
| − | Power: 183 kW (245bhp) @ 6019 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Torque: 325 Nm (239 lbft) @ 4585 rpm<br>

| − | Power-weight: 150 W/kg (204 bhp/ton)<br>
| |
| − | Weight dist: 52.5 F 47.5 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 75 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Take the XR GT, enlarge the engine to a nice round 2 litres, chuck a turbocharger under the bonnet for good measure and give it some meaner bodywork, and the XR GT Turbo is born. Although infamous for it's turbo lag, it does actually drive very nicely once you have become used to its handling and rather unique power delivery. Old timers still call it the GTT.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Just a touch of understeer is all that's need to control this car, once you've learnt to anticipate the turbo lag it's really just a more powerful XR GT.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === RB4 GT (RB4) ===
| |
| − | [[image:RB4.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Front engined, all wheel drive<br>
| |
| − | Engine: 2.0 litre turbocharged inline 4<br>
| |
| − | Power: 181 kW (243bhp) @ 6021 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Torque: 340 Nm (250 lbft) @ 3886 rpm<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Total Mass: 1235 Kg (2723 lbs)<br>
| |
| − | Power-weight: 147 W/kg (200 bhp/ton)<br>
| |
| − | Weight dist: 56.4 F 43.6 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 75 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The only road car to sport an AWD drivetrain, this makes it the ideal car for all the rallycross courses. The RB4 is also fun to drive on the road tracks, but is slightly slower than the GT Turbo and FXO due to the mechanical loss inherited from the AWD layout. It is the easiest to drive out of the trio, however.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Understeer is your enemy here. Only add as much as you feel you need into the suspension and push the torque split back until you can push the rear out slightly with the throttle. This will also help even out tyre heating & wear.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | === FXO TURBO (FXO) ===
| |
| − | [[image:FXO.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Front engined, front wheel drive<br>
| |
| − | Engine: 1.9 litre turbocharged flat 4<br>
| |
| − | Power: 175 kW (234 bhp) @ 6365 rpm<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Torque: 305 Nm (224 lbft) @ 4338 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Total Mass: 1132 kg (2495 lbs)<br>
| |
| − | Power-weight: 154 W/kg (210 bhp/ton)<br>
| |
| − | Weight dist: 59.3 F 40.7 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 75 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The favorite car in S1 (initially), it is very accessible and fun, being a fast front wheel driven car. It's meaty tyres and light weight ensures it is corners well. The XRT catches back up on long straights though.
| |

| |
| − | === LX4 (LX4) ===
| |
| − | [[image:LX4.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Front engined, rear wheel drive<br>
| |
| − | Engine: 1.3 litre inline 4<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Power: 105 kW (140 bhp) @ 8212 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Torque: 131 Nm (97 lbft) @ 6917 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Total Mass: 499 kg (1100 lbs)<br>
| |
| − | Power-weight: 210 W/kg (286 bhp/ton)<br>
| |
| − | Weight dist: 45.8 F 54.2 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 40 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Tipping the scales at a mere 518 kg, the LX4 is a pretty light car and is quite fast around the twisted S1 tracks. Compared to its bigger brother, the LX6, the LX4 is easy to drive and ideal for beginners to learn how to control a LX-style car.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''LX4/6 Setup tip:''' These cars need a fair amount of understeer in the springs to keep the controllable. Don't go silly with the spring rates though. Low tyre pressures are needed. Keep the diff as open as possible on the power side and reasonable well locked on the coast side. Some rear toe comes in very handy here.
| |

| |
| − | === LX6 (LX6) ===
| |
| − | [[image:LX6.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Front engined, rear wheel drive<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Engine: 1.8 litre inline 6<br>
| |
| − | Power: 142 kW (190 bhp) @ 8429 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Torque: 173 Nm (128 lbft) @ 7059 rpm<br>
| |
| − | Total Mass: 540 kg (1192 lbs)<br>
| |
| − | Power-weight: 62 W/kg (357 bhp/ton)<br>
| |
| − | Weight dist: 48.3 F 51.7 R<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 40 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Take the LX4, swap the engine for a 1.8 litre inline 6, and you have the LX6. So what's the big deal? It's a touch heavier, has a slightly more balanced weight distribution (due to the heavier lump up front) and, most importantly, more power. It's trickier to drive, so if you've not driven an LX style car before the LX4 is a better starting point. Since the LX8 has been canned, this is the fastest LX style car available in LFS at the moment.

| |
| − | Really existing prototype of a sportscar from Finland powered by a mid-mounted turbocharged Saab engine. Hard to be driven on the limit.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' The lack of rear antiroll bar can make this awkward to setup. Don't put too much understeer into the springs or the car will push too much. No need to go silly with the front antiroll bar either, although a healthy amount is still recommended. Keep the suspension fairly soft too.

| − | === FZ50 (FZ5) ===
| |
| − | [[image:FZ5.jpg|thumb]]
| |
| − | Rear engined, rear wheel drive<br>

| |
| − | Weight dist: 38.0 F 62.0 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 90 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This is the fastest road car available in LFS, favoring top speed over handling. Its high weight, high power and rearward weight distribution make for an challenging, yet entertaining drive. Go take it for a spin and make those tyres squeal.
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Doesn't actually need that much understeer. Heavy engine braking is the main issue, so most importantly have the differential very tight on the coast side to help with off throttle oversteer, and move the brake bias forward to help stability under braking.

| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 70 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Take everyone's favourite hot hatch, stick slicks on it, thrown in a beastly 2.0 engine, throw out some weight, then clad it in some mean racecar bodywork and this is what you end up with. The most powerful FWD car in LFS, it brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "power understeer". Requires smooth driving. Is a competitor to the UF GTR.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''XF/UF GTR setup tip:''' Wheelspin frying the front tyres is the main nightmare behind these cars, so keep the suspension soft, lock the differential as far as it will go on the power side and use the coast side to control lift off oversteer. Keep zero toe on the front wheels, and keep tyre pressures LOW. Although this makes the tyres easier to heat up, the extra grip will be more beneficial in preventing wheelspin, so in fact the tyres will generally be cooler.
| |
| − |

| |
| − | Weight dist: 64.6 F 35.4 R<br>
| |
| − | Fuel tank capacity: 60 ltr
| |
| − |
| |
| − | While it has less power than it's competitor, the XF GTR, it's lack of weight more than makes up for this. On twistier circuits it will eat the XF GTR (and a couple of sets of tyres), but loses out on the straights. Certainly requires smooth driving. Whoever said Minis were boring?

| |
| − | Based on the real MRT5 built by the McGill Racing Team and competing in the Formula SAE championship this lightweight car is ideal for autocross tracks and slow configurations. The MRT5 is fun to drive and reminds you of a kart although it has more power and a differential.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' This car is best with SOFT suspension. Understeer is certainly not needed in the springs, it hurts turning too much. Just adjust antiroll bars to get the balance you want. Also, this car is extremely sensitive to differential settings. Use the viscous differential and keep it fairly open (low single digits). Very low tyre pressures. Rear toe comes in handy again here.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Based upon a Formula Renault 2000 racecar, this car serves as a nice introduction to the cars with downforce. The relatively low power of the engine makes the car easy to drive once up to speed. Insane fun on twisty tracks.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Actually needs a bit of a loose setup, this will help with low speed cornering. Adjust downforce to keep the rear in place at higher speeds. Due to it's low power, it's best to keep wing angles low for most tracks.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Based upon a Formula 3000 racecar, this is the second fastest but most difficult car to drive in LFS. Once mastered though, it offers great rewards to the driver. It's no Formula One car but don't let that fool you into thinking this isn't one awesome car. Just look at that power-to-weight figure! Suffice to say, the acceleration is incredible. It can pull over 3Gs in the bends. And if it stopped any quicker it would hurt (well, more-so). Only drive it if you have the balls.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Setup tip:''' Like the FOX, you don't really need much understeer, just use downforce to keep the rear in place. High tyre pressures work well on this car.

| − | The real [http://www.bmw-sauber-f1.com/en/index.html BMW Sauber F1.06]. Incredibly fast in every way. You'll need to drive absolutely on the limit to get the most out of it. You don't need to lift or even use a gearstick for shifting - the onboard electronics will do it faster than you ever could.

| − | '''Setup tip:''' Stiff suspension is way to go here, the tyres flex enough you just don't need the springs to. This also means you can use stiff anti-roll bars without screwing up the handling. High wing angles are needed to increase traction and make use of all that power. The traction control, although for girls, is definately useful to stop you pushing too hard. 4% is a good beginners limit, the more manly you feel, the higher you can go. Hardcore players like to leave it off all-together.

| − | The FXO GTR is the easiest of the GTR cars to drive, thanks to its stable handling and four-wheel drive. Unfortunately it's also the slowest over a single lap. In the hands of a skilled driver it can usually beat most comers, but even the best FXO GTR driver can't catch a well-driven FZ50 GTR or XR GTR in a sprint race. In endurance races the playing field is leveled somewhat, as the FXO GTR is easier on its tires than the other two GTR cars and has superior fuel economy. Ultimately the FXO GTR is a great car for somebody just getting used to the extra power offered by the GTR cars or for somebody who just wants to have some fun in the GTR class, but if you want wins and don't like long races you have to move to one of the rear-wheel drive GTR cars.

| − | '''Setup tip:''' Need a little oversteer for this car, and send plenty of the torque rearward to keep tyre temperatures equal front and rear. Best keep the differential locking fairly light on the coast side to help turn in, which is this cars main strength.

| − | Is the XR GT Turbo not man enough for you? Slicks, wings, silly power and an angry face, this car has had the works done to it. Nobody knows what the LFS tuning division did to the turbocharger to get double the power out of the engine, but it works, and we are forever thankful. It likes to eat FXO GTRs for breakfast, so watch out.

| |
| − | '''XR/FZ50 GTR setup tip:''' Not much understeer needed for these cars, again just use downforce for high speed stability. Need to keep the differential fairly tight so you can put down all that power. Highish tyre pressures at the rear, less at the front.

| − | This is what happens when a not-so-sane person looks at the FZ50 and says "Mmm, nice, but could do with a bit more power." 130bhp more to be exact. Like the XR GTR, it was given slicks, downforce, gorgeous looks and lightened, but just ended up better. Not for the faint hearted, since it will do it's best to rip it out the first time you drive it.
