Hello,
I am trying to get P1 on actual European Sunday Cup 400 on Dragon Trail Gardens.
With any car that I tuned to PP400 I am about 12 sec behind the leader, which is strange in 2 lap race.
I watched replay of my race and found that the winner has Mégane Trophy car on SH tyres.
I tried to have the same car but — it is not possible to put SH tyres on Mégane Trophy and stay on PP400 max. Even with power limiter set to 70% (min) and Ballast 200kg (max).
Winner's car had to be PP470 at least which leads to my question finally — what are the PP rules of Sunday Cups 400?

Thanks
 
To quote the great Captain Barbossa, the suggested PP is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules. The AI cars don't stick to it, nor should you.

Well you can if you want, but it is not always possible to win by following the guidelines.

And there are various events where lead AI(s) does not seem on the same footing as everyone. When you add the get the rabbit mode where you start last with moving chicane who's only goal seems to slow you or burn your CRB, you often need to ignore the suggested PPs.

It's a suggestion of the PP to use to beat the event, usually they're pretty inaccurate as many races you can be way under and still win and then others like this are extremely difficult at that number. Seems to be possible at 400 PP with the right car/tyre combination and nitrous, but up to you if that's a fair playing field at that point.
