If you race randoms every stock car is pretty much a punching bag, considering everyone has a Zentorno and on straights even the worst driver is able to push the gas pedal and and leave you in the dust. Not to mention the damage from crashing. Once you get a fully modified car winning against randoms won't be a problem, even in a Vacca.
On the Zentorno v Entity topic the latter is definitely inferior, it is competitive but to win you have to work harder than you would on a Zentorno simply because it's less fast overall. I would suggest to try a stock Zentorno for a while and see if its driving style is fit for you (note that upgrading has much more of an effect on Zentorno).

ENTITY MASTER RACE
But seriously if you drive the Entity a lot, you are used to its handling, I say go for the Entity, I had an Entity at first and loved racing with it, I then sold it for a Zentorno because it was faster, but it wasn't exciting like the Entity, so a few months later I brought a new Entity, and ever since I've raced every single super race with it. |

Entity more exciting than the Zentorno. I thought the Entity's predictable handling made it boring for everyone. If you want the most excitment there is only 1 super to choose imo, Turismo. |

The Turismo imo is fugly and I hate the way it drives. Zentorno, Entity and Infernus are the only supers I would consider racing with. Also not everything you think is boring is boring for other people. Everyone has different tastes and preferences. If you like the Turismo go for it, I personally hate it and would never buy one, ever. |

For me it's the exact opposite, in that I hate Entity and love Turismo, though I agree that the former is more "exciting". I can never aim the car correctly through corners and I'm 80% times sideways or crashing because understeer or bumps. I could never get Entity (and Elegy) driving style down to competitive levels. |

This is racing, forget your stereotypes about who drives it, what it looks like and what it's like to drive. It's the fastest car in its class. If you put the effort into getting used to it, you will get your reward.

If you put the effort into getting used to it, you will get your reward. This x1000 and can be applied to any game really. Using what is best is always the best choice. Practice, adapt and learn WHY something is the best. Unless you are competing in a sanctioned league where bans are in place you are just handicapping yourself by picking something inferior and really accepting failure as an option by giving up trying to learn something new. |

Or just get good enough to hustle every rando you meet, and buy 5 supercars like I did. I own and have won races in an Adder, Entity, Turismo, Voltic and Zentorno.
What car is best depends on the track. 80% of tracks will suit the Zentorno best, so if you're going to go for just one I'd get used to driving it because I can't imagine another car will come along to replace it anytime soon.

I havent run the numbers but I can say with almost 100% certainty that the Tursimo doesnt best the Zentorno on 20% of GTAs tracks. I also use other cars but you always know you would be faster in the Zentorno. There are a couple but not 20%. |

The Zentorno is just flat out better. Get consistent using the best car in the game or you can buy the entity which at this point seems like supercar training wheels. Its AWD and seemingly endless traction make it one of the easiest cars in the game to drive. The Zentorno just requires far more skill than a turismo or entity to be consistent. Its kind of like comparing a blade and a dominator. One is glued to the earth and reasonably quick. The other has power for days but only in the right hands is it useful. Also are you racing against NoDos or randoms? because the way your post reads it sounds like you spend 95% of your time racing randoms and not NoDos. There is no way you have that many problems with Zentorno driving NoDos. Either greatly exaggerated or you are racing randoms. Yeah, I am racing against randoms most of the time. Im only new to NoDo so Im not really up with all the events and playlists. I send invites out to the Crew in all the races I host and sometimes there will be 1 or 2 Crew members in it. If I see racing playlists and recognize the name than I usually jump on board to get a more thrilling race with people who can drive. Probably the biggest reason I race randoms though, is just to acclimatise to racing real people and to get a taste of the tracks in the game. I do care about my W/L record as well, so racing you guys all the time would hurt that record a bit  |

For me, I really don't enjoy super races regardless if I am winning. I race with whatever is the most fun to drive and I think, from the information you gave in your post, that is what you should do too.

Im not sure if that just because I dont have my own car... dunno Im really enjoying racing coupes lately actually! The Zion is a sexy little car and can really move well. Its a shame most people default to super or sports all the time. |

Its a shame most people default to super or sports all the time. Ideally we try to run every class at least once in a playlist in NoDo(at least on xbox). There are some playlist that are only for supers but not many, mostly just Shaggys tracks. I think your hated for the Zentorno will lessen when you race more with NoDo as you will experience a lot less pitting. Really I think if you had been into racing pre-high life update that hatred would be for the adder as that was the car of choice by noobs. I can totally understand why you might think less of a car that you only see assholes driving but I assure thats not us  |

It's better to spend a few weeks getting fully used to the Zentorno than being comfortable in the Entity. The Zentorno is better in every department that matters for racing than the Entity.
