Hey ringermatt, I am totally envious of you as well. I first downloaded the game because it had the Ring and the Caterham, and have dreamed of driving both since I learned of their existence. Despite my fascination with the Caterham (and the old GT40, and the Cobra, and the 911's), I found that the only car that I could drive well at all were the cars that were similar to the sports cars I have owned. You guessed it, FWD hatchbacks. I have owned many fast cars, but they were the only ones that I had owned which handled worth a damn.
I liked both the minis, but the new one did not even have as much oomph as my old Escort, so I looked up the specs of the Cooper Works Mini and modded it. It only has the transmission and engine of the JCW, because I do not really understand the tire/brakes models yet, that will come as soon as I understand it better. Here it is:

It's not quite a GTIv, but it is a blast to drive.
I have also modded the rearend of the Cobra to a 3.09 ratio (accurate for Jaguars with the same diff, and Shelby would put the ratio you wanted it in it). It makes the car much more driveable, and its top speed is much more enjoyable on the faster tracks. I have also modded the Caterham to have their optional 6-speed, with similar results. If anyone is interested, I'll post it.
bugsyv, I think that the Nurburgring in previous releases was the GP track, but the one in the current release is almost certainly the Nordschleife.
