Has the Sultan RS been buffed?


Recommended Posts

Or the RE-7B been nerfed since the last update?

 

Just wondering as I was doing some stunt races last night (non contact) and my RE-7B which I always use for stunt races just felt slower than normal... I was getting beaten by Nero's and even some guy in a Sultan RS!! I couldn't catch him in a straight line?

 

Now I consider myself I fairly decent racer so it wasn't me being crap lol

 

I must do some proper testing but after hearing that C* have played around with some of the sports cars, maybe they have done the same with some of the supers? Anyone know?

 

Cheers

yes, but the re-7b should still be way faster than the sultan rs!

The Sultan performs okay on some of those stunt races, like downtown loop or double loop, especially when you know about curb boosting, short shifting and how to go through the tubes fast, plus maybe a high fps rate. Its top speed is not that far behind of the RE7B, so the guy in the Sultan might just be better than you, that happens to everyone.

 

...

 

Was it me, by any chance? :pp

You get the wrong idea Andy, I have no problem with anyone being better than me, I am not being a sore loser lol

 

Just questioning whether any of the cars have been altered by C* (as some of the sports cars have)

 

I'll do my own testing and draw my own conclusions just something seemed a bit 'not right'

I own and often use both the Sultan and the RE7B and I don't think there were any changes to any of them since they nerfed/fixed the RE7B with the Bikers Update.

But like I said, some of those cars that are widely viewed as inferior are performing quite well on some tracks. E.g. the Sultan feels very fast when going through tubes, at least for me.

I have a drag course i made to test acceleration. Im gonna test them out later also. Im very curious to see the results. R* does that alot. They release a fast car, then later nerf it so the new cars seem fast.
