As there was a high rollers event this week and as I haven’t spent too long driving S2 cars beforehand, I thought I’d test most of the potential cars. I used a power track (Jungle) and a more technical track (Callejera) - both street events. Results below, sorted by cars which had the best combined results:

Hmm, that hasn’t worked. If anyone can spot a flaw let me know. Otherwise, I’ll remove the attempt at a table later.
Couldn’t figure out the tables but added all 24 cars tested now. Hopefully, fairly clearly set out above.
I dont think they allow tables to be used on the forums. They didnt allow them on the old forums either.
I used the Mercedes AMG One
143 367 765 if you want to give it a shot.
It handled good and had the top speed to compete with the fastest AI,only struggle was the other AI constantly pushing into me to slow me down and my own errors in driving line.
In addition to HTML tags, you can also enter your info in a spreadsheet and copy and paste it, which will convert the top row to a header. Or just type in the table using vertical pipe characters to separate data by column. The syntax is very simple, just be sure to make the second row with three dashes per column:
yields:
| Car |
Tune |
Jungle |
Callejera |
| McLaren F1 GT |
K1Z Suimin |
1.30.624 |
1.26.687 |
| Ferrari F50 GT |

Thanks Max. Had just figured out my error, so table now in post above. I’ll move it across to the main post tomorrow.
Purple - I’ll also try that tune tomorrow and see how it compares to Vital Reaper’s in the table.
I recommend using Markdown as per Max’s first example opposed to HTML in the second example. Google “Markdown cheat sheet” to learn the basics in a matter of minutes.
No wonder the F1 GT is far and beyond everything else. These 1400 bhp on 950kg combined with low drag and high aero are absolutely bonkers.
Interesting that both Sestos perform so similar yet are completely different in build.
Did Mukas Evija run rear aero? Mine uses full downforce and didn’t feel THAT bad.
I tried this tune for the Merc. It’s a good tune - very similar level to Reaper’s that I used in the above list. I was running times within a couple of tenths or so using both tunes. Unfortunately, the car just isn’t quite as good as others in the list.

I suspect Muka’s tune probably didn’t have rear aero but I couldn’t see another tune by anyone I recognised to compare it to. It was hard work to drive!
I appreciate the feedback. I did try some of the other cars but struggled getting them tuned to my likings. I really want to get better at tjuning RWD cars but they usually end being too squirrly, especially in S class, got a few in A class I like tho.
I just startexcreally tuning in fh4 and it’s a bit different in fh5 so its almost like starting all over again.
Yeah, I looked at his tune yesterday and didn’t quite understand why he built it this way. On Race tires but with the need to increase front tire width to reach 998.
Kind of wasted if the upgrade to Slicks is possible with heavier rims.
On Jungle I had an identical time (1:42.8), but on Callejera 1.5 seconds faster. Also only two runs with rewind.
Makes sense because the Slicks increase the low speed grip for Callejera and the aero decreases high speed acceleration on Jungle.
In general it stays the same: worst car of the bunch and one of the worst S2 cars overall.
Because it’s constantly on grip limits it feels a lot faster than it actually is.
Kinda sad it didn’t get the Rimac-treatment making it somewhat useful.
