FH6 S1 Class Meta — High Speed, High Stakes
S1 Class (PI 801-900) is where the gloves come off. Cars are seriously fast, downforce starts to matter, and good vs great builds differ by tenths.
Top S1 Cars
McLaren 620R, '08 Dodge Viper, Corvette C8 — all Autoshow-accessible. Porsche 911 GT3 RS — my personal pick. Rear-engine traction, telepathic steering feel. Not the fastest S1 car in a straight line but makes up for it in every corner. I have 40 hours in that car alone.
Build Strategy
Downforce now matters. At S1 speeds, aerodynamic grip is significant — race splitter and wing are worth the PI cost. Full suite: race tires, race suspension, race differential, race transmission — you can afford it all. Remaining PI: power or weight? Tight circuits: weight. High-speed tracks: power. S1 meta is track-dependent. Build both.
