    @Alex Hodgkinson - at the risk of making you regret your generosity, a couple of questions:

    1. The volvo_wtcc2016tc1 is listed as a WTCC 2015 car (and a 2016 car). Is this an error - should it only be listed under 2016?

    2. DTM 2013 doesn't get a mention anywhere...

    3. Was the Hillclimb BMW Judd 320 E36 discontinued or a special competition car? It's not currently available in store or game.

    4. Ditto the Porsche Cayman 981CS (Class: 981 Clubsport Trophy)? Can't find it. Or is it just the same car as the GTR4 Porsche Cayman 981CS MR ?

    Thank you for your patience with my pesky obsessive compulsiveness.

    And yes I have WAY too much time on my hands in semi-lockdown / under-employment !!

    Thanks for replying @Maskerader ! However I beg to differ...

    Your first link (Cayman Trophy) is listed by Alex as the Porsche Cayman 718CS (Class: 718 Clubsport Trophy), so this isn't the Porsche Cayman 981CS (Class: 981 Clubsport Trophy) that I was asking about.

    Your second link (GT4) is the Porsche Cayman 981CS MR (Class: GTR4) which is close but not the car I'm referring to. Alex has a separately listed Porsche Cayman 981CS (Class: 981 Clubsport Trophy).

    The store/game doesn't always have the same name for the same car. The names are never "wrong" as such but they are inconsistent which can be confusing.

    There are 11 Porsche models in the store. Alex lists 13 Porsche models (see below) in his spreadsheet of which one has been discontinued (2017 GT3 R replaced by the 2019 version) and one (the Porsche Cayman 981CS / Class: 981 Clubsport Trophy) is a mystery to me... (upcoming release :D:D:D???)

    And yes - before anyone points it out - I'm a bit :confused::eek:o_O:D

    Ah, I see now. There are 4 Caymans in the list, but only 3 in the store.

    However, I still think both the cars I linked are 981. They are both listed as 2017 models and have 385HP, while 718 GT4 is the one from 2019 and is more powerful: "The 718 Cayman GT4 and 718 Spyder (previously named the Boxster Spyder) were revealed in June 2019 [...] Both have a naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-6 [...] which is rated at 309 kW (414 hp; 420 PS) at 7,600 rpm". It's this one: http://game.raceroom.com/store/cars/gtr-4/porsche/porsche-718-cayman-gt4-clubsport (however it has 3.8L engine on the car page, an error?)

    So what appears to be missing for me is the 718 Trophy car.

    I think the "new" trophy spec car is a mistake as it doesn't exist.

    Thanks Alex - looked like a phantom car to me (or just the GTR4 car listed twice)!

    A couple of other comments:

    1. The volvo_wtcc2016tc1 is listed as a WTCC 2015 car (and a 2016 car). Is this an error - should it only be listed under 2016?

    2. DTM 2013 doesn't get a mention anywhere...

    Why has the Performance-Index disappeared?
    Or do I have to look elsewhere for another list including the PI?
    Thank you

    Ai tuning system ..... To be confirmed by Alex but I believe that this corresponds to specific AI rules for the first turns of the first lap

    Great!

    Yeah i'll most probably get stuck into all the manual cars as I am GT3 out from ACC. I really like GT1 and Prototypes so hopefully they will get the new tyres one day.. :)

    add: please consider adding the vehicle year to your spreadsheet..

    It's great that they allow you to test out the vehicles before you buy.. A nice touch! :cool:

    I tried some V3/4 vehicles and they were sweet as..

    Please consider adding a indicator which informs which vehicles have power steering or not..

    For now there is a way to find out already:
    Move the steering wheel, when standing still without running ignition and engine.
    Then start the engine and feel, if the FFB becomes lighter when standing with running engine, compared to standing without running engine. R3E actually does that. :D
    (So you have still to test the car, but at least there is a way to find out.)
