I think, in general, that nitro cars are under-appreciated in Classes C/B/A/S.

When people see that a car is slightly slower than cars with the same rank, they automatically assume that it's bad. For example, many people believe that the 918 Spyder is inferior to the Aventador SV because it's slower. However, nitro cars all have very good nitro and drifting in order to compensate for this.

With the Porsche 911 G3 RS/Ferrari LaFerrari vs McLaren P1, everyone just hails the McLaren P1 as the king of Mid Class A (aside from the Lamborghini Asterion) and forgets about these other cars. However, the McLaren P1's handling, drifting and acceleration are all worse than the LaFerrari's and 911 GT3 RS'.

It's the same thing with the McLaren 675LT vs Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe Touring Car 2014. Many people think the 675LT is superior but the C 63 Coupe accelerates faster and drifts WAY better. The C 63 Coupe is actually equal to the 675LT, in my opinion, based on my experiences.

So, when you see a car that's just inexplicably slower than everything else, there's usually two explanations. Firstly, it could just be a car with a small Tuning Kit, like the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (which is so bad that it manages to be slower than the Lotus Exige S Coupe). Secondly, it could be a car with a huge nitro stat; if a car does happen to have a large nitro stat, then you need to investigate how good its other stats are; it usually has some form of compensation for its lower total top speed.
