New Cars - Opinions on Grog and Ripper?
Grog seems to turn pretty well but it's really wide/bulky. Feels like a beefy tank that's quite maneuverable. Maybe i'd use it if i had time to practice.

Ripper turns like a brick. My initial game felt really awful for me, being a Hotshot user. Shame too, because it looks bloody awesome.

What are your opinions?

I was full-time Hotshot and Grog/Ripper feel completely opposite than how you've described them to me.

Grog feels more like Backfire/Merc and Ripper is more on Breakout/Takumi level.

I've pretty much stuck with Grog though. Reminds me of my favorite car from the first game.

After playing as my beautiful DeLorean since 2 minutes after it came out, switching to grog felt... Heavy? It's definitely a heavy feel for me. But it's not bad. He looks like a tank. Haven't played ripper. And though I like grog I'll be back to my DeLorean once I do the achievements for grog and ripper.

I've been a breakout / dominus / zippy player until the Ripper came out, to me it feels really fast and really nimble, I'm reaching balls faster than I think I should be, and my aerials (If you could call them that) are hitting more than before, I'm a Ripper fan!

I think Ripper is a nice car but Grog seems not so nice to me
My shot accuracy has increased with Grog. better everything really. Really love it.

other than that, since I was a primary Dominus user. It felt super heavy.

The grog for me felt really light idk why and the Ripper felt kind of heavy

Of the two I preferred Grog. Ripper felt like driving a cinder block. I played a few games with each then switched back to my Takumi. Love that car.

The Ripper feels similar to the Takumi but heavier, somehow. Might be the engine noise that makes it feel sluggish.

I like Grog. It's very much like the Takumi hitbox but a bit thicker vertically. I really doubt there's any substantial difference at all when we're dealing with such a huge ball. There are those occasions with flatter cars where the car slips under the thing you're trying to hit so I prefer a bit of chunk to vehicles just for peace of mind, whether it really matters or not.

Its apparent bulk is mainly a design illusion. You expect it to be tanky because it looks tanky. When you're surprised that it feels light, that's because they're all light.
