Here's a quick question, why doesn't your PP's change when you select different tyres? I end up joining rooms with PP limits then straight away have to go and buy some RS tyres to keep up. Would also be more fun having cars with better grip being taken on the straights by cars going for more speed then defending throught the twisty bits.

Whats peoples thoughts?
 
Don't know why tyres aren't figured into PP, they should be. I can't think of anything else that effects performance quite like tyres do in this game...

My thoughts are that you can restrict both. In real-life races, the whole field is on the same tyres (at least as far as what's allowed), so you shouldn't have half the field running on sports tyres with lots of power and half on racing tyres with less power.

Which is what PP's with included tyre choice would be.


If the host doesn't restrict tyres, that's his fault (or he wants it that way).
 
The tire system in game isn't accurate simulation of differences in real life tires. All the tires last about the same distance for example so there really isn't much tactics in tire choice to begin with.

There are rooms with tire limits online though they are unfortunately rarer than unlimited rooms. I would recommend OP to look for these rooms if he doesn't like the RS. (I really don't understan "street cars only!" rooms that are running with RS :))
