Season 4.5 is here, and it's bringing some serious firepower to Racing Master. The new Lotus Emira just dropped in the Standard category, and trust me, this car is absolutely nuts. But with so many cars to choose from, you're probably wondering which ones are actually worth your time and resources. I've put together this complete tier list to help you figure out exactly which cars you should focus on. Whether you're trying to climb the ranks or just want the fastest ride possible, this guide has got you covered.

What Makes a Car Worth It?
Before we jump into the rankings, let me explain how I ranked these cars. It's all about average lap times and how well the car handles overall. The faster and more stable a car is, the higher it ranks. But remember, even the best car won't win races if you can't drive it properly or haven't upgraded it enough.
Racing Master Extreme Tier List
The Extreme category is where the real monsters live. You've got 22 cars total, and some of them are absolute beasts.
SS Tier
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
C Tier
| Tier | Legendary Cars | Rare Cars | Normal Cars |
| SS | Pagani Huayra, Porsche 918 Spyder, Bugatti Centodieci, Mercedes AMG GT Coupe, Bugatti Chiron, Koenigsegg Agera RS | Porsche Taycan Turbo, Lotus Exige | - |
| S | Ford GT, Ferrari SF90 | Chevrolet C8 | - |
| A | Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, Audi R8, BMW M8 GTE | Aston Martin DB11 | - |
| B | Ferrari F8 Tributo, Dodge SRT Hellcat | Lamborghini Huracan, Jaguar E-Type, Dodge Viper SRT-10 | - |
| C | McLaren 720S | - | Audi E-Tron |
Here's my advice: Focus on SS and S-tier cars first. These are the ones that'll actually help you climb ranks fast. Don't waste materials on lower-tier Legendary cars until you've maxed out these top performers.
The Porsche Taycan Turbo and Lotus Exige are game-changers in the Rare category. With at least ECU 3, these cars can actually compete with top Legendary cars.
The Audi E-Tron is the only Normal Extreme car. Honestly, even fully maxed out, it struggles against mid-tier cars from higher rarities. Skip it unless you have absolutely nothing else to upgrade.
Racing Master Sports Tier List
The Sports category has 24 cars, and there are some real gems here.
SS Tier
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
C Tier
| Tier | Legendary Cars | Rare Cars | Normal Cars |
| SS | McLaren 570S, Mercedes SLS AMG GT, Audi RS7 Sportback | Hyundai Veloster N | - |
| S | Lamborghini Gallardo, Porsche 911 Cabriolet S, Jaguar F-Type, Nissan R35 GT-R, Mercedes SL 63 | Dodge Challenger R/T, Ford Mustang GT | - |
| A | BMW 3 Series M3, Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, Lotus Evora GT430 | Audi TTS Coupe | - |
| B | Honda NSX-R, BMW M4, Chevrolet C7 | Subaru WRX STI, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X, Cadillac ATS-V | Audi S5 Cabriolet, Volvo V60 Polestar |
| C | Porsche Panamera Turbo | - | Nissan 370Z |
The McLaren 570S is still your best bet if you want to dominate Sports races. It's been consistent season after season, and there's a good reason for that.
The Hyundai Veloster N is honestly broken in the best way possible. It handles so well that with just ECU 3, it can beat SS-tier Legendary cars with ECU 1. The steering response is incredible, and it recovers from slides faster than almost any other car.
Normal Sports cars are pretty weak overall. Even maxed out, they only work well in lower-rank races. You'll struggle to get above 1600 RP with these.
Racing Master Standard Tier List
Don't let the "Standard" name fool you, some of these cars are seriously fast. There are 25 Standard cars total, and several of them can surprise you.
SS Tier
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
C Tier
| Tier | Legendary Cars | Rare Cars | Normal Cars |
| SS | Nissan Silvia S15, Citroen Xsara WRC, Lotus Emira, Nissan Skyline R-32 | - | - |
| S | Porsche 911 Carrera 4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, BMW Z4, Aston Martin DB5 Vantage, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO III, Toyota AE86 Trueno | BMW 330i, Volkswagen Golf R | - |
| A | Mini JCW GP, Ford Mach 1 | Subaru BRZ | - |
| B | BMW M235i | Ford Focus RS, Infiniti Q60 | Mazda Miata MX-5, Volkswagen Passat 2.0, Honda Fit |
| C | Citroen C3 | - | Ford Fiesta ST |
Lotus Emira is the new star of Season 4.5. If you can get it from the limited banner, absolutely do it. It’s fast, stable, and fun to drive.
The Nissan Skyline R-32 finally got the love it deserved with recent buffs. Keep the RPM over 100, and this car will surprise you with its performance.
The BMW 330i and Volkswagen Golf R are solid choices in the Rare category. These cars can actually compete with Legendary cars when you get them to ECU 3 or higher. But only upgrade them after you've maxed your Legendary cars.
Normal Standard cars are your last resort. They're only good for farming materials in Car Challenges. Don't expect to climb ranks with them.
Remember, these rankings are based on pure performance numbers. A skilled driver in a B-tier car can absolutely beat someone struggling with an SS-tier car. Your driving skills and upgrade levels matter just as much as the car you choose.
The most important thing is to pick cars you enjoy driving and stick with them. Don't chase every new car that comes out, focus on building a solid garage of upgraded vehicles that you know inside and out.
