===Performance===
The Sbarro GT1 can reach a maximum real speed of 419.6 km/h (260.6 mph) at MAX+PRO with Tuning Kit activated. The GT1's overall performance can be considered mediocre, as it has a slow acceleration (reaching maximum speed in approximately 4 seconds) and a very low nitro stat, making it an unsuitable choice for races. On short tracks, it faces competition from the Renault Trezor, which has a lower total speed by 2.7 mph (4.3 km/h) and a much lower raw top speed by 52 mph (84 km/h), but makes up for this with stronger acceleration and nitro efficiency. The only car it can compete with is the BMW M2, which has a similar total speed but better overall nitro efficiency.
The Sbarro GT1 can basically be described as a Class C version of the Zenvo TS1 GT 10th Anniversary Edition and Zenvo ST1, but with sharper handling at lower speeds and a less unique nitro efficiency combination of 7/12/17.
===Usage===
Due to its very high starting rank, the Sbarro GT1 is too dangerous to even be a good option for Multiplayer. Even for Time-Limited events, the car is never featured in the Top 100 leaderboards due to its speed being 9.7 km/h (6.0 mph) slower than the Maserati Alfieri.
The Sbarro GT1 is only a collector's item due to its lack of performance in Events and Multiplayer. In addition, the GT1's steep Pro Kits costs, especially with its requirement of 40 V8 Engines, means that resources should instead be spent on better cars like the Sbarro Sparta and Maserati Alfieri (for Class C vehicles) or the Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport and Arrinera Hussarya GT (for efficient V8 Engine use).
