The main takeaways seem to be:

• Most cars are 15 to 20 seconds slower.
• There are a few very notable exceptions.
• The Valkyrie is even more OP than before.
• The new RUF RGT 4.2 '16 is seriously fast.

The F40 being as fast as a GT3 RS & Zonda R is... interesting

It's kind of surprising, since its main rival at the time, the McLaren F1, is significantly slower.

 

[NismoGT]

Is there a way to run this simulation for individual cars, without any other traffic to affect results?
Or maybe in a 1 vs 1 race against a slower enough car to stay in P2 without being lapped?

It looks more like the AI is adapted to the RGT being on the new physics than it being that fast. Also, I really doubt a stock R34 is that fast.

There is never more than a single car on the track.

All the cars are on the new physics, so I don't see why the RGT should be different. Also, none of the cars are stock – see the post I linked for setup details.

I worded it a bit weird but what I meant is - the AI is probably still used to driving the other cars the way they would on the old physics, but the RGT has only ever existed on the new physics so the AI is better adapted to driving it.

Oh, and my mistake on the stock part. I should probably pay more attention to these things

Ahhhhhh, I was worried it was stock and the simulation/physics were completely wack. Colour me relieved. Would you mind running them stock and posting the results?
