You can't lose 30K DR in a single race from finish position alone. Even in a 20 place grid, max loss if you come last is 19x160 = 3040 and even then all the drivers that beat you would need to be 40K or more lower in DR than you.
They're not exactly as fast as each other. The '89 is probably fastest in a straight line (highest power output) but sucks coming in to or out of corners unless you get it exactly right. The '07 is the easiest to drive consistently but is slightly slower. The Greddy Fugu is lowest power by a big margin but is much easier to accelerate out of corners due to more forgiving differential setup. Each car will be faster in certain situations if the driver has the skill to exploit its strengths.
Yes if you want a Dr reset due to Sr dropping too many levels below your Dr then race at Monza. Does not matter much which version or what car you are in, it'll probably happen sooner rather than later and if it's a short race it's almost a certainty.
The BMW can get a bit snappy when you're accelerating out of the slow corners, the Vantage and GT-R are quick and pretty manageable.
I didn't see your name until just before the start. I was looking forward to racing you but that was when you went off at the chase. I'm entering the next one, you usually get at least one from the TPC crew in the American lobbies
Common misunderstanding that BOP is aiming to make all cars equal on every track. The BOP is there to make sure one car doesn't dominate over a season. Different tracks will always highlight different strengths. Some are power tracks, some are handling.
Yes. Are they so bad?
Yeah, Fugu is definitely the main car for A. The others are fast and kind of fun but are always trying to kill you. Fugu is pretty planted with a nice balance. It will get rumbled at the end of a long straight if the Zs don't hit the walls but will fly away in the turns.
I have seen takedowns in the couple of races I did, but staying to the inside helped avoid them. The docks section is much worse.
