+Broughy1322 When you do all this testing, you take each vehicle round the track for 10 laps (I think) but which lap would you say on average is your 'hot lap'? The lap where you've got the fastest time the most times if you get what I mean?
+BlueLabrador Hmm, I'm pretty sure it does ... marginally. The lap time difference is no where near as significant as it is with PC v. console, but there is almost certainly a difference with next-gen v. old-gen. You just have to look at some of the world records on the SC leaderboards. Stock Market Crash for example: Picano's PS4 record of 52.6 vs. Aporis' 360 record of 53.9. Thrills in the Hills too: kingbone's PS4 record of 1:05.7 vs. my 360 record of 1:06.7. It's not as if people on new-gen are all better than those on old-gen, because the exact same players that are on PS4 or XB1 right now will presumably have played GTA Online on PS3 or 360 beforehand.
I love these "fastest racing vehicle" mashup videos. I'd love to see the "Top Speed" version of this vid, or at the very least videos on the Top Speeds for Helicopters, Boats and Planes. I suspect it will be the Speeder, Swift and Hydra, but it would be nice to have some testing to confirm this.
+Broughy1322 You should totally do a troll video on this. I can see it now, just taking brakes out of running around the track at the clothes store, and putting in random times for the laps.
Ok dumb question time.... Never used the hydra in a race, but have it in online from Pegasus. How are you rolling to turn with it to perform tighter turns ? Thanks..
@broughy1322 yha yha but i thinking all in one video like this video + do every fastes car in evry class and not upgraded. do you understand me bro? i think that will be very cool :D and more cooler becus its comes from you ;)
the one's that have changed Compacts - Brioso RA not rhapsody .SUV XLS armoured not Huntly , Desert Raid or BF 400 in offroad not the bifta RE7B not T20 in supers
Did I see today that the regular V12 is now in Sedans? Or am I just seeing things? Top speed you say? Is that an accidental hint at a possible planes top speeds video?
7:50 Mini Broughy rant about the Sterling GT being in the wrong class. The Taco Truck is the fastest when it comes to the van's class, especially when there are a bunch of them forming a wall. Isn't that right Broughy? LOL
I think it's safe to say you won't be selecting a vans race on PC anytime soon. Plus this video is epic. I (like another person noted), base my garage around your videos. Keep up the great work.
I saw that some of the clips were from last gen like the Elegy, maybe you could squeeze out a faster time on current? also any news on the next top speed videos? would like to see how fast the interceptor truly is!
Hey, i know is a bit out of context here, but after the arrival of the new "Rino Hunt" game mode, the Futo feels much faster then before, is it my impression or what?
Forgive me for the lapse in memory, but did you ever do a lap test for the T20 with the damaged spoiler to see how it compares without it's benefits? I do like the design of the car, but I wonder if a race with randoms smashing people about could ruin your chances in a race if you brought one along.
Question: Why aren't the stats for Armored Sedans the same in free roam as their stats in Racing? E.g. the Armored Schafter V12 and Armored Cognoscenti 55 show that the top speed for them is huge via the stats bar in racing set ups, but the stats bar via the garages when actually buying those vehicles seem capped. Why?
I remember when I suggested this idea and you didn't seem to think it was a good one. Maybe I had not made it clear beforehand, oh well you ended up doing it.
Good video, couple of points I have: - I could have sworn the Schafter V12 Armoured is already in Sports class (Not sedans)... Maybe that was patched after this video had been release or maybe I'm thinking of the other Schafter, Idk. - Bifta fastest in class? I've seen Brawlers go faster than Sanchezs (even with wheelies) around certain tracks, and the Brawler go much faster than the bifta on Tarmac and dirt so would like some insight on that. I trust your judgement for the most part with land vehicles, but Air racing is a different ball game... you can barely control the heli or the jet in your video & Air races are far more dependant on track layout. Smaller tracks are easily dominated by Buzzards, larger tracks Swift Deluxe. Same goes for Jets...Any track which is twisty (Like most good air race plan tracks) and requires any kind of stunty corners, the Lazer will win every time. It is far superior to the Hydra because it's maneuverability is massivelyy greater, and a big reason why the Lazer is also the best dogfighting Jet. Hydra wins on long distance less twisty circuits, kind of like comparing the Adder to the T20. But what do I know about Air racing,I only held the most WRs for both flight schools (SP & MP) and a tonne of the air races as well as being on R* livestream for it. I'll definitely have to go check that sedan recommendation, because I didn't have a clue that was a sedan class, I thought it'd been patched into sports class as I've seen people racing it and losing, against the Elegy in "On the GOH" track.
Since the Police Bike cannot be modified nor saved into your garage, would the sovereign be the best alternative? According to the GTA Wiki, the Sovereign is basically the Police Bike, but with a patriot design, (hence the fact that it's from the Independence Update). The wiki also said that it could straight up be the civilian (which, obviously, can be saved into your garage and modified) version of the Police Bike. Please respond when you can, if you agree or disagree with the wiki, as well as the Sovereign is the best alternative for the Police Bike. Thank you!
+Broughy1322 So would it be a good option to buy the Sovereign as an alternate for the Police Bike since the Police Bike cannot be modded nor kept in garage and regardless of the class difference?
I have a few questions regarding car modifications: 1. Does exhausts affect anything? I've heard some drifters saying that "anything but stock is the best" 2. Does carbon spoilers reduce traction? 3. Does carbon parts in general make the car faster and more light weight? 4. Does suspension upgrades matter? 5. Does armor upgrades matter? I want to make my cars as modified as possible to suit racing so only answer if you really know the correct answer, please :)
Broughy you need to test the boats on calm waters, the test you do is good enough but it can be more accurate if you did it far away from land, if that is possible.
Bro i really like the work u do with all the cars.... can u do this with all the guns like best weapons in each class... and some fact findings like effect of suprrssors on various guns.... i would really appreciate if u do that!!!
Can you please do fastest vehicles by class again and include all new Dlc vehicles. Thanks bro. Your videos are the only ones that I 100 percent believe and trust
You should do top speed videos of non land vehicles like boats, planes, helicopters and also the unraceable classes like industrial or commercial, just to see how fast you can beat those vehicles with normal cars and for example how much faster than cars can the planes and helicopters go in a straight line
I wish you made lap times for foot but with guns, like 1 time for the rockets, 1 time for carabines, etc etc, and maybe also a lap time for slow runs and another one for walking, and why not aiming too? shaushauhauhsau, OMG, going crazy here
+Broughy1322 I'm honestly really pissed now about the car and it's my only car and I have a motorcycle the bati 801 rr I sold my t20 and I made the worst choice ever I want my t20 back rlly badly
So dominator racecar for muscle, annis for sports/super, Bati for motorcycles, and trophy truck off-road, is this all correct because I want to buy all the fastest for each ?? Also is the one dirt olé better off-road than trophy truck ?
Broughy I hate to break it to you, but I think you don't give the Grotti Carbozinarre the credit it deserves. Granted for contact races it's not the best. But my best in it (no lie), on this track is: 1.00.401. (prolly cause it's the only car I drive >< ) Were you using customs or stock? Stock Version I'll do a 1.03.6 or so as well. I'm pretty sure I can get it under a minute with the custom. I haven't recorded it but I'm happy to show it to you if you friend me. GrazerOne. Keep up the cool videos!
I guarantee you're not using the correct track. This is not the Rockstar created "Cutting Coroners", but a longer version. You can download it for your platform here ("Cutting Coroners GP"): bit.ly/BroughysTracks. You can not get a 1 minute lap time in the Carbonizzare around here, but you're welcome to try to beat my lap times yourself.
+Axoda Whenever I do Cutting Coroners laps I get my best times with the Massacro. I do well with the Feltzer, Elegy, Jester, and Schafter V12 as well. If you're a good driver you can win with a whole host of different sports cars. Great variety in the sports car class and I hope they add more.
+Axoda Remember that top speed does not equal best lap times. The circuit tests Broughy does are to test cars on overall performance. The Massacro may have more power and a higher overall top speed, but (like mentioned in the video), the Elegy RH8's saving grace is it's unbelievable traction and cornering capabilities that can make it rival some supercars. Heck, back in the day, it was in the top 5 fastest cars in the game... and it's still pretty much top 10. The trick with the Elegy is that it takes practice to utilize it's cornering to it's maximum potential. It can take corners at tighter angles and/or higher speeds than most other cars (might only be the Entity and the Osiris/T20 that can do the same). If you can do it right, the Elegy will be able to use more efficient racing lines and maintian it's top speed longer than the other cars... which gives it the overall faster lap time. In a race that involves longer, straigher tracks, there are other Sports class cars that will be better. But the same can be said for other classes. The Adder, the Z-type and the Super Diamond all become very hard to beat in their respective classes despite (all but the Z-type) being so low on their lists. But when it comes to a more technical race (one that involves more cornering), the Elegy has, is, and may always be the top Sports car. And honestly, I hope it always stays on top. The car is free for those who sign up and synch their accounts to the Rockstar Social Club. It's not a symbol of the size of your wallet, you don't need to fight your way up through the game for the earnings or buy a shark card or whatever and despite all that, you still can have a solid, competitve race car right from the word "go". I like the sentiment of it.
"I have even tested the vehicles that can't be tested."

what a scumbag
ColdYetiKiller i need dat mug tho
+Trichogaster 118 The absolute madman.
Fully upgraded parachutes

Lmao
6:55 not going for the "the dominators... DOMINATE the muscle cars" pun... mad respect
even I was thinking about that.Dominaters dominate muscle car class
ive built my garage from these videos they are really good
Glad to help!

S-PRO Gaming 6-8
***** Cool, that's kinda where I thought it would be, just when you've got your rhythm and the best lines figured out to take just perfectly.
Those old gen laps though; nostalgic!
Yeah! This is just what I needed! Thank you very much man :D
Wow Broughy, you really don't want to give up on this series! (i'm not complaining, I LOVE IT!)
is this a top cars video? or my shoppinglist in gta? :D
nice video :D
Wow, great work. This is the only useful vehicle comparison video I've ever seen. All the rest are just a bunch of kids driving in straight lines.
Cheers, I try to give proper information :)
This is actually really handy in a way. :)
The BMX bike is actually faster if you can bunny hop correctly you can go almost as fast as a coupe lol
thanks B. I'm sure this is a timely process..racing community is grateful for your efforts..YEAH!!
+Broughy1322 great work broughy! I do believer you are one of the top GTA related youtubers out there
Watched a few of your vids son.. cheers for taking the time to make them.. really helpful
Cheers! :)
I noticed some of the clips were recorded on old gen
+BlueLabrador only decrease ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+BlueLabrador Hmm, I'm pretty sure it does ... marginally. The lap time difference is no where near as significant as it is with PC v. console, but there is almost certainly a difference with next-gen v. old-gen. You just have to look at some of the world records on the SC leaderboards. Stock Market Crash for example: Picano's PS4 record of 52.6 vs. Aporis' 360 record of 53.9.

It's not as if people on new-gen are all better than those on old-gen, because the exact same players that are on PS4 or XB1 right now will presumably have played GTA Online on PS3 or 360 beforehand.
Well its hard to get the exact same lap time or even faster twice
Awesome video series man!
I love these "fastest racing vehicle" mashup videos. I'd love to see the "Top Speed" version of this vid, or at the very least videos on the Top Speeds for Helicopters, Boats and Planes. I suspect it will be the Speeder, Swift and Hydra, but it would be nice to have some testing to confirm this.
no it would be dinghy or jetmax for boats
Do the same thing but with the slowest one!
this video was very helpful. thanks so much!
well done broogles nice to have a spin off video
+gaming101 WOOF WOOF
The way you commentate isn't boring :), most people make me wanna sleep lol
great video broughly,exactly what I was looking for - thanks! #subscribed
Yeah, but like, what about running?
Scumbag XD
+Broughy1322 You should totally do a troll video on this. I can see it now, just taking brakes out of running around the track at the clothes store, and putting in random times for the laps.
+Broughy1322 I think the hat gives u traction for running
What about fastest characters in game tho 😉
Fastest bicycles! :D
You're amazing! Great video! :D
Ok dumb question time.... Never used the hydra in a race, but have it in online from Pegasus. How are you rolling to turn with it to perform tighter turns ? Thanks..
+Pokerclown 79 you know he's in jet mode right?
+moe riou yeah I only just got it at the time of thst comment and didn't realise there were two flight modes... My bad
Sweet video. Wonder if Rockstar ever plans on shaking this data up.
Broughy, you should've done it on foot with different shoes, lol.
Ah 1.12 is best I can manage right now. Darn it! I'll beat you though! It's my mission in life now. :D Keep it up with the fun vids!
Strong work Broughy!!!!
I love these videos, thanks!
time for a update on this video when we get all the cars from cunning stunt?
I'll be updating everything
@broughy1322 yha yha but i thinking all in one video like this video + do every fastes car in evry class and not upgraded. do you understand me bro? i think that will be very cool :D and more cooler becus its comes from you ;)
+Broughy1322 can you do slowest vehicles in every class
the one's that have changed Compacts - Brioso RA not rhapsody .SUV XLS armoured not Huntly , Desert Raid or BF 400 in offroad not the bifta RE7B not T20 in supers
Well done Broughy.
Dominator dominates
Broughy you should do this same format, but the slowest of each class instead of the fastest!
Are you going to do this for the slowest vehicles
Waited for this for soo long
Did I see today that the regular V12 is now in Sedans? Or am I just seeing things?
Top speed you say? Is that an accidental hint at a possible planes top speeds video?
7:50 Mini Broughy rant about the Sterling GT being in the wrong class. The Taco Truck is the fastest when it comes to the van's class, especially when there are a bunch of them forming a wall. Isn't that right Broughy? LOL
Pls
I think it's safe to say you won't be selecting a vans race on PC anytime soon.
Plus this video is epic. I (like another person noted), base my garage around your videos. Keep up the great work.
ryaqk Thanks, I'll try my best :)
most excellent, thank you.
Gotta keep this bookmarked for when I forget😉
Thnx Broughy this is really usefull
Thank you for doing all thoses test for us even though it takes alot of your time
You're welcome :)
+Broughy1322 broughy i know this is a kinda difficult request but it may not be since you have all the footage but may you please re do this video
+Broughy1322 wait my bad I read one of your comments XD
Cool vid! You should do the top speed test of cycle, boat, helicopter, and plane class
I saw that some of the clips were from last gen like the Elegy, maybe you could squeeze out a faster time on current? also any news on the next top speed videos? would like to see how fast the interceptor truly is!
Fun fact: if u rev your car any rpm below redline and release handbrake its actually something like lanch control and gains speed quicker :D
Hey Broughy, does exhaust (tips) affect performance at all, or just backfires? Your videos are great btw, awesome channel +1.
Nope
Do a slowest vehicles in class!
That video would be about an hour long😝
Hey, i know is a bit out of context here, but after the arrival of the new "Rino Hunt" game mode, the Futo feels much faster then before, is it my impression or what?
Forgive me for the lapse in memory, but did you ever do a lap test for the T20 with the damaged spoiler to see how it compares without it's benefits? I do like the design of the car, but I wonder if a race with randoms smashing people about could ruin your chances in a race if you brought one along.
Yeah I did. See fact finding series. Episode 8 maybe if memory serves me correctly?
Could u do a countdown of The best accelerating cars?
Question:
Why aren't the stats for Armored Sedans the same in free roam as their stats in Racing? E.g. the Armored Schafter V12 and Armored Cognoscenti 55 show that the top speed for them is huge via the stats bar in racing set ups, but the stats bar via the garages when actually buying those vehicles seem capped. Why?
Don't trust any in game stats: th-cam.com/video/wOVYcsHna7g/w-d-xo.html
Very useful video! When will you resume your top speed series?
When I find some time
Soo useful! Cheers...
ooh i hope you will do an intro to a video in the future like this : hello everyone , i am chokey1322 and... :D
hard work went into this video I wouldn't wanna test all these lol
is there a video just for a straight up drag showing all the fastest types of vehicles.
Please do the updated version of the full countdown of every car in this game
I remember when I suggested this idea and you didn't seem to think it was a good one. Maybe I had not made it clear beforehand, oh well you ended up doing it.

Lazer 4lyf!
Quick question. What color combination do you use for most of the vehicles you use for the circuit testing?
It's a secret sorry :)
Since the Police Bike cannot be modified nor saved into your garage, would the sovereign be the best alternative?

Please respond when you can, if you agree or disagree with the wiki, as well as the Sovereign is the best alternative for the Police Bike.
Thank you!
The sovereign is identical to the police bike. But obviously in the motorbikes class where it is way off the pace, not the Emergency class.
Right. Do you think it would be the same case as where to the Bati 801 RR is just the Bati 801 but with a livery instead of custom paint?
Lee Kuz Yep it is
+Broughy1322 So would it be a good option to buy the Sovereign as an alternate for the Police Bike since the Police Bike cannot be modded nor kept in garage and regardless of the class difference?
Yes
I have a few questions regarding car modifications:

No, No, No, Not really, No
+Broughy1322 Wow, thanks for replying :)
This is great video but could you do a fastest armoured car version (I know it is not a class).
+adv 4501 yes I know I forgot the 'a' after 'is'
He already has. Check back about a month ago in his uploads.
Indeed I have already. It's even linked at the end of this video. Check the playlist.
+Broughy1322 how fast is the hydra mph?
im a dumb dumb
Broughy, you should do fastes vehicles in the rain
no
+Numoyunne OH THANKS FOR THE REPLY BROUGHY
MinemanMC
np
when you finish all the top speeds will you do something simliar for that
Broughy you need to test the boats on calm waters, the test you do is good enough but it can be more accurate if you did it far away from land, if that is possible.
Will "Top Speeds By Vehicle Class" be next? :D
I love the effort you've out towards this video! It's so much better than FuckDoxFTW
Bro i really like the work u do with all the cars.... can u do this with all the guns like best weapons in each class... and some fact findings like effect of suprrssors on various guns.... i would really appreciate if u do that!!!
I'm not really an expert but we'll see
Could you do a fastest armored vehicles? We have quite a few now and it would be useful for deciding a free roam car. Thanks.
th-cam.com/video/7dkghKmVqtQ/w-d-xo.html
Was even linked/shown at the end of the video :p
***** oh,Thanks :)
i just played senora freeway and the racecar massacro killed my elegy. is the elegy really faster?
+Broughy1322
thank you!
Can you please do fastest vehicles by class again and include all new Dlc vehicles. Thanks bro. Your videos are the only ones that I 100 percent believe and trust
I'll be going back over all the classes in the coming weeks, as I've mentioned on multiple videos in the last few weeks :)
AWESOME. you're the man Broughy
You should do top speed videos of non land vehicles like boats, planes, helicopters and also the unraceable classes like industrial or commercial, just to see how fast you can beat those vehicles with normal cars and for example how much faster than cars can the planes and helicopters go in a straight line
I plan to
Is there a spreadsheet with all the cars?
bit.ly/gta5vehicleinfo
+qkodkod Life is not a spreadsheet. Sometimes you gotta take the one that feels the best. And not what the numbers are saying.
+Sraigius motivational quote of the day
you are the man brough
I feel like the Hakouchou is faster than the Bati 801
The Hakochou Can Pull A Wheelie Anywhere, At Any Speed. I Have The Hakachou And I Can Say I Have Beat Bati 801's Multiple Times
UNDN - UnDead Nation That's exactly what I'm saying. I've even beaten my friends T20 with the Hakouchou!!! That bike is a beast!!!
Hakuckou has a higher top speex than bati
can you do this video but for top speed
I assume the x80 is quicker than the T20 now and what about the new helicopters
See the relevant update videos in the playlist
+Broughy1322 ok cool
Good stuff.
Sadler should really be part of the Vans class.
I wish you made lap times for foot but with guns, like 1 time for the rockets, 1 time for carabines, etc etc, and maybe also a lap time for slow runs and another one for walking, and why not aiming too? shaushauhauhsau, OMG, going crazy here
I love the way you say 'Bati' (9:53)
Please do the closest match ups, if we had classless racing. Cheers.
broughy a lot of people were saying the 900r got nerfed can u make a vid about the top speed and the lap time
It's fine. I would make a video if there was something different.
+Broughy1322 I'm honestly really pissed now about the car and it's my only car and I have a motorcycle the bati 801 rr I sold my t20 and I made the worst choice ever I want my t20 back rlly badly
Hey brough you should refresh this with a top three by class for the 2018 series
Damn, how long will this series stretch out for?
Did you make the original cutting coroners?
No Rockstar did
Because of that mistake with the Hydra, I think you should do the whole video again.
What happened with the dominator? It doesn't seem to handle as good as it used to, did they nerf it or something?
No it just "feels" really slippery, make sure you don't slide with it. Also make sure you have a spoiler on it.
Hey Broughy, does the Spoiler effect the Performance on the track?
Yes. You always need a spoiler for added traction/grip
So dominator racecar for muscle, annis for sports/super, Bati for motorcycles, and trophy truck off-road, is this all correct because I want to buy all the fastest for each ?? Also is the one dirt olé better off-road than trophy truck ?
Dirt bike*
Thx for this testing just so many updates hard to keep track!
Figured out sabre custom is fastest muscle actually, is that the Benny's upgraded one?
Indeed it is, though you want the BF400 for off road races. I'll be making update videos on all the classes
+Broughy1322 ty
Does suspension setup matter?
Broughy I hate to break it to you, but I think you don't give the Grotti Carbozinarre the credit it deserves. Granted for contact races it's not the best. But my best in it (no lie), on this track is: 1.00.401. (prolly cause it's the only car I drive >< )
Were you using customs or stock? Stock Version I'll do a 1.03.6 or so as well. I'm pretty sure I can get it under a minute with the custom. I haven't recorded it but I'm happy to show it to you if you friend me. GrazerOne. Keep up the cool videos!
I guarantee you're not using the correct track. This is not the Rockstar created "Cutting Coroners", but a longer version. You can download it for your platform here ("Cutting Coroners GP"): bit.ly/BroughysTracks. You can not get a 1 minute lap time in the Carbonizzare around here, but you're welcome to try to beat my lap times yourself.
Which one is faster now? The regular Schafter V12 or the armored version?
Regular Schafter V12 is quicker but not in the Sedans class - it's in sports.
Ahhhh Thank you! great videos btw
Shame it includes cars you can't actually race. You're good at hitting the same line consistently though. Nice.
isn't the Massacaro faster than the Elegy?
Nope
thought so to
+Axoda Not in a race situation.
+Axoda Whenever I do Cutting Coroners laps I get my best times with the Massacro. I do well with the Feltzer, Elegy, Jester, and Schafter V12 as well. If you're a good driver you can win with a whole host of different sports cars. Great variety in the sports car class and I hope they add more.
