Renault Sport Megane Trophy.

Edit: Apparently an illegal mod, so it was pulled from rFactor Central. Check their forums for a legal version.

The successor to the popular Megane Trophy and Clio V6 cup, this new model is based on the current Megane Coupé but even though it shares it's looks with the road car, underneath it's quite a different beast. Tubular steel chassis, 500 hp 3.5 liter V6 engine and rear wheel drive. With an empty weight of less then a 1,000 kilo's it is a real racer.

Did a few laps around Zandvoort, Toban and the Nurburgring and I like it! Still a bit rough around the edges but nothing a bit of tweaking can't solve. It bounces on the suspension on rough patches so much the floor hits the tarmac. The steering is too light, get the upgrade with 'assist level 1' and make sure you set the force feedback to -100%. Decent sounds with a loud back fire!

The previous model Megane Trophy is available here: http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=Megane Trophy

Or the eurocup version here: http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=Megane Trophy Eurocup 2008

If you like Renaults but would like to start with a bit less power, I suggest this Clio mod: http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=Clio Cup 2008

Even though the Clio is a streetcar with only a four cylinder engine, it performs quite well and will even oversteer when pushed too hard. Fun car, great model!
