Ventus Best Car?

For Lakeside Loop? Sure. Other tracks? It depends. The car does have superior accel and top end in class C, but the drift angle is extremely limited. It only barely survives the turns on Lakeside Loop.

If you think the Ventus can barely make the turns on Lakeside Loop you don't know how to drive it. You HAVE to use the brakes to get more angle.

It is pretty good. But it loses a bit of speed in really tight winding sections, like consecutive hairpins. Personally I think the Venom Raptor is probably the best car. I haven't quite mastered it yet as it's REALLY difficult to drive, but it easily has the best turn radius/turning speed. You have to steer with the accelerator though instead of the steering wheel lol.

Lol immediately goes for the "well you don't know how to drive it" card. How about you go try to beat a 49.26 on lakeside loop using those brakes of yours and see how that goes 😂

Yes, using brakes will get you more angle, but you're going to slow down too much in the process.

Goliath's currently all over the leaderboards, I think it's safe to say he knows how to drive, and using the brake to swing the rear out on the Ventus is no mystery considering Riku literally says he does that in story mode..

I never said it was the best car in the game my man, there are obviously better cars. It's easily one of the better if not the best C class car. My best time is around a 52:00 or so when using the brakes to turn. I see you're at the top of the leaderboard so sure, you know how to drive it. That's my mistake. But saying it barely makes it around the track is disingenuous.

I was mostly thinking of that sharp right hand turn going downhill a little bit before the bridge. Carrying as much speed as possible without slamming into the wall with the car is pretty hard.
