If you use cars from your garage that you've tuned, when you select BoP, it will revert those cars to their stock bhp and weight.
I've tuned road cars to Gr.4 specs. Placed them in a mixed field of Gr.4 cars. When I selected BOP, my road cars were way faster than my Gr.4 cars.
I noticed my road cars were also riding higher than what I set them to. When I selected each road car during a replay, they were also topping out higher than what I set their race transmissions to. The BOP was as normal for the Gr.4 cars, but reverted the road cars to their stock settings.
Edit: A bit more discussion from Post #1990 back in February 2024.

In most of my custom grids I use RHs, but lately I started to use their default comfort tyres in one-make grids as long their PP stays below 550...I have this Renault 5 Turbo grid and a Alfa Romeo Giulia GT '67 grid and the comfort tyres are good enough... Having said that, I definitly would...

Beware that some 60s sports cars have CM and some CS tyres. Both of the above have CM, as do the Shelby GT350 and E-Type. The Porsche 904 and Alfa TZ2 have CS but are less powerful so can be PP matched.
The Merc 300 SL ’54 is a bit older but has CM. The Ferrari 500 Mondial weirdly has SH. The cobra, 250 GTO, and C2 corvette all have CS.

AI we’re pretty quick at these two tracks. Varying conditions at Fuji Speedway still saw the AI performance doing very well. Some cars opted for RS when a dry line formed. I stayed with the AI that switched from W to IW to RS. Even with me on RS the AI didn’t hand me positions.

Running test with both the W196 and RA272 since the RA272 has the weight advantage while the W196 has the HP advantage.
I figure it out.
First with both cars normal I got a
2:28 with the RA272 and a
2:36 with the W196.
So I increased the weight of the ra272 by 200 and decreased the HP of the W196 down to 240 and behold.

I made the Kissling Motorsport #30 car, but haven’t completed it. Just trying it out.

Is the W 196 R '55 limited to RH tyres in custom races then, due to them being the default tyre?
Took it for a spin anyways. Fits in well with the 50s theme

I didn't tried, but I think it is RH tyres locked indeed.
A bit of testing here without the chicanes, it kind of work (don't mind my car). No headlights for the Mercedes sadly. The Porsche and the Mercedes are the intruders here, but quite a close finish for a one-hour race.

Been doing some races with the RA272 and Merc W196 as a historic Monoposto series. I’m never going to be able to afford more than one of these Mercedes, so I put a generic chrome/black livery on both just with manufacturer decals and driver names.
I added ballast onto the Honda until it was at 609pp like the Mercedes, but it seems a bit slow in a straight line now, so I might leave the Honda at a higher pp than the Mercedes. Just gotta figure out the right value still.

Did my first 60 minute race with my new Honda RA272 grid. Good race but a little tricky. Hardest part is getting the tire/fuel wear rate where I want it. This car goes forever on fuel. 33 laps at Catalunya on 4/6, next I’ll try 6/8. I’d like to do at least one stop in a 60 minute race..

Ran a custom 30 laps Endurance race inspired by the Gran Turismo 1 JP vs US events, plan on doing another with EU cars next:
The C4 gave me a hard time, ran on the hardest difficulty with boost turned to low and all cars were running RH tires, the C4 only has a stage 1 weight reduction which apparently is enough to have it keep up with my GTS which only has RH tired and height adjustable suspension. Was pretty fun
Running events like these makes me realize that we really need a C5 to be added at some point along with a RT/10 which game devs seem to have forgot it even exists anymore.

Ran a racing version of the previous endurance race consisting of BPR/Early GT1 cars and JGTC cars:
Probably the toughest race i've ran yet as the F1 GTR was very close the entire race and spun me out on Lap 27/30, barely got back to 1st.

Hey guys. As I have finished updating these due to another commitment, I figured it was a good time to post it here in case anyone is interested. Hopefully you find some fun in them if so ^_^
