Don’t let the name “Standard” fool you, these cars can absolutely bring the heat. Many Standard-class cars boast impressive speed and performance. In this 26S3 tier list guide, every Standard-class car is ranked from best to worst, organized by rarity level, so you’ll know exactly which ones are worth investing in.
Racing Master Standard Tier List (26S3)
There are currently a total of 41 Standard-class cars available in Racing Master 26S3. Below is the complete tier list for each rarity, ranked based on average best lap times and overall performance.
Legendary
SS Tier
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
C Tier
The classic BMW M3 has finally been introduced to Racing Master, and it does not disappoint. Although its acceleration and top speed are not exactly beastly, this M3 excels at cornering. Overall, however, it still falls short of the current Standard class kings.
The best cars in Standard are still the Mazda RX-7, Nissan Skyline, and Toyota GR86.
Prioritize upgrading SS and S-tier cars first before focusing on mid and lower-tier Legendary cars. These top-tier vehicles are the ones that can boost your rank more effectively and much faster.
Rare
SS Tier
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
C Tier
The 330i and Golf R are still the best Rare Standard cars in 26S3, followed closely by the Subaru BRZ. These cars can even compete with Legendary-tier cars when equipped with 3 or more ECU upgrades. They’re definitely worth investing in, but only after you've maximized your Legendary cars and have no others left to upgrade.
Normal
SS Tier
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
C Tier
These cars are the last resort in the Standard category. With ECU 5 and a max 25/25 upgrade, they can hold their own against mid-tier Rare cars. However, they’re only useful for farming materials in Car Challenges, not for increasing your Hall RP in the late game.
Note that this tier list is based on the average best lap times, as well as the overall speed and control of the cars. This does not mean that SS-Tier cars will always win races. Ultimately, the results depend on your mastery of the cars and their upgrade levels.
Now that you know which cars to prioritize, make sure to fine-tune them using the best Standard tuning setups to fully maximize their performance.
