Been sitting here trying to balance my stuff out. Watching old SCCA races. Started thinking that maybe Group A at 700PP (with racing softs) was too high, but in trying to balance like the N1 Puma GTO I'm finding info online about it's specs and there's no way N1 is at low as I expected. Can't get the PP nearly low enough to go along with my theory of stuff being too high. Seems like the performance differential between Group A and N1 isn't as wide as I thought.
So as is, I think 650-700 is good for Group A and 600-650 is probably where your N1 stuff is with R-Softs as well.
Which leaves me with my US SCCA stuff. I don't really have enough variety of cars to get an idea of what seems right. It seems like they ran DOT slicks (so Sport Softs let's say) in the World Challenge series from the late 80s to mid 2000s for sure. I have my C4 Corvette at 600PP (the cars weren't ZR-1s though) and it feels good and fun. Pretty stock except for brakes and little weight loss. Again, I might be running this a little high because the ZR-1 makes so much power where I think the R9G race cars were using like 250-300hp crate engines.
This might suggest Touring 2 at 500-550 (smaller displacement, NA, Integra, Civics, E36 non-M3 etc) and Touring 1 at 600-650 (your NSXs, 911, Supra, V8s, Turbos etc)
Would love some input on where the various generations of 911s would scale. I've got a range of them in my garage at this point, so just not sure where I should fit them. Old vs new, NA vs Turbo, Big Wing vs factory aero stuff. I know the 993 GT2s would probably be around a 700 but that isn't in the game. And you can't turbo the Clubsport.
Always keeping in mind the tires as they make like a 50PP difference which is pretty big.
Anyway, aside from their use in Custom Races, using general guidelines like this makes it fun to build race cars for the various in-game WTC series.
