possibly La Sarthe (might be too tedious)
 




driving around the French countryside is rarely tedious 

I would probably use the Dino, but am going to check out some others before i commit. Whichever car will of course be Imperial green metallic

i concur

Also I'm interested too, I need to take a few of the cars out on track but I'm initially leaning towards the BMW 2002 (possibly the Alfa too, will any bolt ons do to make the 155hp or is there a specific list?).

Feldynn, getting the Alfa to 155hp is rather simple.  You have to use all the bolt-ons, hahaha. 

race exhaust, exhaust manifold, catalytic convertor, engine computer, intake manifold (I think that's all of 'em?).

The problem with using La Sarthe is the variation in top speed among the cars.  The Alpine and 2002 are redline limited to around 138 mph while on the other side of the equation the Dino and Europa can hit 145 drag limited, which means with drafting they could go even higher.

I suppose for that track I could allow adjustable transmissions, which would eliminate the issue altogether.

Two questions.

1. Can we use custom wheels and if so are we limited to the stock diameter?
2. In regards to the BMW 2002 can I use engine/exhaust mods to get to 176 or is my only option to get an oil change?

If 176 is indeed the hp rating as attested to by MastrGT then just do an oil change.  No bolt-ons please.

I honestly hadn't fiddled at all with custom wheels in GT6 but feel free to get new wheels as long as the diameter remains the same.
