Hi guys i have all the 22 Nascar cars and i would like to know why 2 or 3 of them have an extra PP, with the same setup aero 20-40 cars have 632pp but some of my cars have 633pp...why this?

Anyone know if this extra PP mean it's a better car... is it a faster car? or a better car for long run endurance..better tire wear?
 
Their engines have probably been broken in.

They're all spec cars. Break in your engine for that extra power.
 
No No No... all my cars are at their maximum 905 HP, it's not that
 
Never heard of that. All Nascars are 632 PP maximum when lowest downforce.
Maybe you have a little extra downforce added that you haven't noticed. Thats really the only thing.

For one, you don't have 905 HP, you have 905 BHP which is the same as 892 HP which all NASCAR cars top out at after a 190 mile break in period. After roughly 8,000 miles, NASCAR cars engines will begine to degrade, beyond repair, by 1-2 horsepower which may be what you are seeing. Otherwise, you may have downforce on by a click or two.
 
No for sure downforce is at minimum and 633pp... i ask a few friends and it also happen to them and nobody know why... that's the reason i asked the question here, yeah i have a car that have 14 000km and i lost a hp now 904 but did not affect pp.

maybe a bug in the game lol i guess there is no difference between 632 and 633

Yes, it might just be a slight flaw then. And to answer your other question, no, your car is not going to be any better with that small of a difference.
 
Sometimes you can earn pp when you winn a race

Lol, you do not earn PP for winning races. You earn experience points for the races, not Performance Points. Big difference there my friend.
 
I bought all the Nascars in one fat supersized Dixie deep fried bucket. and for some reason despite them ll having the same stats odd ones have a pp more or less... Maybe it is Drag coefficeint due to the number of logos (And that Fuzzy logo) Must something in the guts of the physics engine that has been programed to give one Nascar a point more or a point less...Does seem very odd though in what should be a equal field, But in the old days Nascars were known for their liberal abuse on rules and regulations.
