One of the questions we get asked most here at Race Mode North Devon is:
What car and track should I try on your racing simulators?
So, in this post, we’re sharing some Race Mode favourites and customer top picks. Whether
you’re brand new to racing simulators or looking for a bigger challenge, there’s something
here for you!
For New Racers: Easy, Predictable, and Fun
When you’re just getting started with our realistic racing simulators, predictability is key.
Many new customers want a car that helps them get used to precise steering, throttle, and
braking inputs.
✅ Mini JCW Race Car
A fantastic choice for beginners. It’s predictable and easy to learn, yet still delivers plenty of
fun as you get faster. This little front-wheel-drive rocket rewards smooth driving while letting
you push your limits lap after lap.
✅ Mazda MX-5 Cup Car
Prefer rear-wheel drive? The MX-5 Cup is perfect for learning classic RWD handling. It’s fast
enough for exciting racing, with excellent grip that helps build confidence.
✅ GT3 Cars
Don’t shy away from the big guns! The GT3 class has options that are surprisingly
accessible. One standout is the McLaren MP4-12C GT3, a firm customer favourite and the
star of several of our fastest-lap competitions.

For Experienced Racers: More Challenge, More Reward
Ready to level up? Here are some popular choices for drivers wanting more complexity and
challenge:
✅ Porsche Trio

Cayman GT4 Clubsport
911 (992) GT3
911 (993) GT2 (retro appeal!)
These Porsches each handle differently, offering a fantastic learning curve and rewarding
skilled driving with great lap times.
✅ Touring Cars (BTCC & DTM)
If you want that authentic race-car feel, check out our BTCC and DTM options. These have
stiffer suspension, heavy steering, and howling engines for a true motorsport experience.
Customer favourites include:

Nissan Primera BTCC
Mercedes C-Class DTM (1995)
Alfa Romeo 155 DTM
Volvo 850 BTCC
