what i found in the first NFSU was that handling didnt really matter, top speed was the most important stat
however there are tighter courses (street x) in NFSU2 so maybe some cars will be better than others, although it seems the skyline will rule all again :(

regarding race types:
Street X - I hated that, it's total BS and has nothing close to anything in real life - may be survival racing or smth. it's rediculous - all AI does is try to hit you or push you off.

Circuit - VERY long laps. Some into 2.30 and more - it's ok to do a 2.30 lap in a porsche in Spa circuit, but here...

Drag - I always liked it best.

Drift - only care for it when I needed to unlock stickers and other stuff.

Sprint - ehm, it's ok, but can get annoying with longer races. Still better than circuit. I really like driving fast on the highways though. Very good fun. Especially with bumper cam (to get that speed feel)

URL - this comes up as a nice surprise - but only in the city the races are fun. When you get to the airport - whooo, it's so long sometimes, it's not even funny. And when there is more than 2 races in an event - it's even worse. Besides, the tracks are not actual race tracks, but something like an enlarged Street x. Putting rumble strips on the sides of tracks doesn't make it into a real race track. It's a big flop imho. Especially that you only race in 2 locations - Airport and City. And tracks are not challenging and very easy to drive on.

no kiddin, i played a few circuits n URLs and the total time was like 8 minutes. 8 minutes for a freakin race.. thats longer than most outruns. and i think URL is NFSU2's ripoff of Gran Turismo, if u think about it

well, another thought i can't shake off is how OLD this game feels now - it's the same as Underground 1, but just different cars, and too many old ones as well (seems like only a few were just slightly reworked).

Q: How many URL races are in stage 5 and would I still be able to unlock unique parts after getting the STi?

i have completed the final race when there is only 2 cars, and i still only have 62% parts unlocked
i havent found about 6 shops, is this the reason ?
also, does doing the career in hard mode give you better parts ?

i have won all races and have no scissor doors yet
so must be a hidden shop, or maybe an outrun challenge that unlocks it
