    Are there only 2 tracks allowed for the daily race B? Seriously, Suzuka, again!

    Getting back to your question, I think it is just maintenance with no update so no rain today.

    Turns out it was a BoP update for a subset of cars. In Gr3 they've wound back the Audi R8''s power, about time.

    Interesting. Definitely in need of some BOP updates to see some more variation up the front of the field

    Lots of BOP changes. Yes, the Audi and many other cars has had a power decrease, but has also had a weight decrease so perhaps may not chew up its tyres so quickly. Unfortunately Lexus has had a weight increase in both Gr3 and Gr4 :( wish I had have known that before the manufacturer series started!

    The Balance of Performance (BoP) for certain cars in Gran Turismo Sport has been updated.

    The following is a list of all adjustments.

    Gr.1 Class
    ・Peugeot 908 HDi FAP - Team Peugeot Total '10 [Power Ratio : 90% > 91%]

    Gr.2 Class
    ・Honda EPSON NSX '08 [Power Ratio : 121% >122%]
    ・Lexus PETRONAS TOM'S SC430 '08 [Power Ratio : 130% >132%]
    ・Nissan XANAVI NISMO GT-R '08 [Power Ratio : 126% >128%]

    Gr.3 Class
    ・Alfa Romeo 4C Gr.3 [Power Ratio : 105% > 104%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 105% > 104%]
    ・Audi R8 LMS (Audi Sport Team WRT) '15 [Power Ratio : 93% > 90%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 108% > 106%]
    ・BMW M6 GT3 M Power Livery '16 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 103%]
    ・BMW M6 GT3 (Walkenhorst Motorsport) '16 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 103%]
    ・Dodge Viper SRT GT3-R '15 [Power Ratio : 81% > 82%]
    ・Ferrari 458 Italia GT3 '13 [Power Ratio : 99% > 97%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 109% > 107%]
    ・Honda NSX Gr.3 [Power Ratio : 99% > 97%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 100%]
    ・Lamborghini Huracán GT3 '15 [Power Ratio : 96% > 94%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 108% > 106%]
    ・Lexus RC F GT3 (Emil Frey Racing) '17 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 103%]
    ・Lexus RC F GT3 prototype (Emil Frey Racing) '16 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 103%]
    ・McLaren 650S GT3 '15 [Power Ratio : 110% > 109%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 107% > 106%]
    ・Peugeot RCZ Gr.3 [Power Ratio : 107% > 106%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 110% > 109%]
    ・Toyota FT-1 Vision Gran Turismo (Gr.3) [Power Ratio : 100% > 101%] [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 103%]

    Gr.4 Class
    ・Alfa Romeo 4C Gr.4 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 109% > 108%]
    ・BMW M4 Gr.4 [Power Ratio : 99% > 98%]
    ・Honda NSX Gr.4 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 108% > 107%]
    ・Lexus RC F Gr.4 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 103% > 104%]
    ・Renault Sport Mégane Trophy '11 [Power Ratio : 87% > 88%]
    ・Subaru WRX Gr.4 [Weight Reduction Ratio : 102% > 101%]

    The above list of BoP changes is part of the Update 1.40 content released on 27 June.

    In the FIA Manu race on Wed at Sardegna B II I quali 7th, finished 14th thanks to a high degree of snap-oversteer I was experiencing in the Gr.4 Mustang. It was happening as I released the brake on turn-in. Interestingly I didn't get it during pre-race practice and qualifying. It's happened at a couple of other tracks but once i've gotten a handle on those tracks I was fine.

    Contrast that to the Gr.3 Ford GT Test Car that I find stable as a rock - I won my spilt the previous Sat in it at Dragon Trail Seaside.

    Any advice on cause and cure?

    Only thing i can think of is track time of day differences? Track evolution (does gt sport have this?) Maybe your ping is effecting handling characteristics? I'm really not sure how gt works under the hood
    Were you well hydrated :rolleyes:?

    @T F Eccles Was this the double right hander that goes slightly downhill? That corner’s a bastard

    The GT is pretty stable under acceleration, it’s a very nice car

    @Noxrai Track evolution does exist, in Bathurst 3 hour qualifying times improved from 0.5s - 1s over the course of the hour long session for example.

    I doubt track evolution exists, considering if/when weather finally arrives, it will be fixed.
    I would think improvement of 0.5-1.0s over the course of an hour session at such a technical track as Bathurst, with tuning allowed, would be expected. I still am striving to do the perfect lap there once, in any car, that I am totally satisfied with.

    No, the left hander immediately after that, but still a downhill corner I suppose. But also right hander leading into the final right-left-right combo before the main straight.
