That's a broad statement there. I'd have to heavily disagree with you there. Sure, the UFR can be better in the corners but you have to be very careful with it, and the acceleration is not nearly as god as the XFR. Once you've mastered U turns in the XFR, it becomes second nature to just slow down and reverse U turn (effectively a J turn).

For my advice (and preference) I'd always have to go with the FXO and XFR. Thet're my personal favourites because of their immense grip over most other cars, especially with the right setup. Personally, I really dislike the FZ5 when it comes to copping, as you said, it just feels too heavy for my liking. RWD cars are more of a cruising car for me, I prefer using FWD to cop with.

But it's up to your personal preference; if you feel like the XFR is just cheating, don't use it. I personally don't think being in an XFR is cheating, it still requires skill to get around the track and hold it in the corners without oversteering out of it. Same thing goes for understeering into a corner, you've got to learn how to control that too. There are many arguments for and against this but I personally love the car.

TBOs are obviously harder to keep up with the likes of the FZ5s but once you get more experience in them, you can actually keep up, provided you have the sufficient amount of backup. So, to sum up, if you want to feel like you aren't 'cheating' and want more of a challenge, I would personally go for the FXO. However, if you're more suited to RWD, go for the XRT.

P.S Sorry, I'm in essay mode at the moment!
