I would like to see more realistic gear ratios that the cars would have in real life. A good example is the XFG. In 5th gear, at 100 km/h it does 5000 RPM (on the default "road" setting), how is that even close to reality?

Some cars like the RAC have pretty realistic ones because they rev pretty low.

maybe the xfg would have this if it would exist in rl.
Because the rac does actually exist.

Then change them yourself if you don't think it's realistic.

QFT.

Besides, the XFG is a 1.3 liter car that revs to 8000rpm, with a max speed of around 115-120 that would seem about right. :o

we are talking about KM/H not MP/H KM/H is 1.6x to MP/H so 100mp/h is 160km/H

115-120MPH, will make myself more clear

If OP is talking about mph, that is quite realistic. 160 km/h with final gear, it should rev that high.

No mph here ^^

I don't think it is that unrealistic. I had the 'chance' (let's say opportunity ) to drive a Peugeot 205 Gti (or at least the version with the highest specs) and the gearbox was really close to it. The sports versions have shorter gears

Besides, the Hardtrack setup isn't a setup that you would find on stock cars. It has been lightly tuned for learning to race. Try Bob Smith's Road Going pack, and you'll find it closer to the FF hatches you're used to drive IRL

Umf how I missed that little km/h on his post?
