Based on the original thread format by @Johnnypenso





For each update released, there lies the potential for changes undocumented in the initial patch notes. Please report any Undocumented changes you find in the current update and I'll update the OP as much as possible to reflect those changes found.





1. It is encouraged that you make an effort in verifying these changes as much as possible. Videos or photos are allowed to show or demonstrate said changes.



2. If you need help from the community to verify something, don't be afraid to ask. There are plenty of people who are willing to lend a hand



3. It is strongly advised that you be as specific and detailed as possible with the information including a brief description of the bug or improvement before it was fixed/changed (if applicable) and how. If English is not your first language that's ok, just do it to the best of your ability.



THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION THREAD ABOUT THE OFFICIAL CHANGES Only any changes not listed on the official site are disgusted here

THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION THREAD ABOUT THE PROS AND CONS OF THE UPDATE or anything else other than undocumented changes in the update. Keep those strictly to the appropriate threads:

I noticed my daily mileage was at zero today for the first time without having to log in and out of a race. I've been out of town so maybe it already does that after more than 24 hours, but when I login daily, my mileage from yesterday is always there.

People have mentioned a reduction in grip and increased braking distances using RS tyres. Not personally tried it yet.

I find it across all tires. The default ABS setting seems to be weaker/more like the "weak" setting. You can hear the tires lockup more than in previous iterations. It does seem to me that this is different than the 1.15 update.

I believe it is in place to combat the advantage from setting the brake balance to the rear with ABS on. I have found that I have been adjusting brake bias more toward the front on some cars. Personally, I think this is a good change. Braking should require a little more finesse, even with ABS default. For a long while there, the finesse was diminished.

The A.I. is very fast in Nürburgrind Nordschleife with Gr.2 in the Custom Races. Try to win starting at 11 (default) and set 2 laps/turbo off/professional.

(In the first lap, A.I. did 6:33, and I, 6:38...I'm using the NSX). [A.I. Best Lap, 6:21].

Yes i have had to adjust BB to 0 or the front now.

Got smashed about in race B last night at Dragon Trail and got my sr knocked down from S to B in a single race. Lost 12000 Dr points in the process . Proceeded to spend the rest of the night getting over half of it back and back up to SR S. Lookers like Dr points glitch is fixed as I had to earn every single Dr point back

This might be since 1.15 though, Alpine VGT 2017, Peugeot L750R, and Tomahawk VGT Gr.1 moved from common showroom to VGT showroom.
