What I found from testing from a default setup pov:
1. Sauber is the fastest, basically from its sheer torque, its so much it could restart a dead planet. By far the most difficult to drive, requiring total throttle and braking control. Worst brakes of the lot, but I think most of it comes from the sheer speed you approach every corner. Requires 1 setup tweak (brakes to 100%), others are nice to have.
Uses the most fuel, but not by much. Can unbalance after a while from rear tires wearing more than the fronts, something I havent been able to dial out, only reduce slightly.
2. Nissan 2nd fastest, closely followed by the Corvette. On paper, the Nissan has the most horsepower, but less torque and its here it looses out. Very strong brakes, locks easily, could do with reduced brake force. Sounds great, decent handling.
3. Corvette 3rd fastest. A bit like the Nissan really, even though its a vastly different car. Handles well, brakes well, sounds well. Half a second between the two.
4. Porsche 4th fastest. Easiest to drive with the best handling and decent brakes, but cronic lack of power. About 4 secs slower than the Sauber. Sitting duck on every straight. Will loose an entire pitstop worth of time in just one stint.
Bottom line: I'm going with the Sauber and bracing for dear life. Nissan and Corvette can be in contention if you play your cards right.
Note: Yet to find the optimum tire pressures and the best stradegy.
