Give it a try. The dark blue one I spent a lot of time on getting it just right. This update messed up the feel of it, but it doesn’t have the PP ⚠️, the black and red one I setup last night to work on the setup but I can’t drive it. I noticed one difference right now, front expansion should be 45 not 44. But that wouldn’t do it.
Was it tricky to drive? A little but I could manage just fine. Now the steering is heavy, abrupt changes in FFB, tail end kicks out way too quick now, oddly enough it didn’t before in my opinion. I could drift it easily. Have video proof but I don’t know how to share that on here.
Actually I just noticed, I have sports soft on the black one. Going to change that now. But, I’ll still share this, like why would it register PP without fully customized suspension but not with? I’ve got the old Shelby mustang with sports soft tires with a PP ⚠️ and it’ll remove the ⚠️ if I put stock suspension on it. I ain’t changing the tires on the car, it was a blast to drive before and now I can’t drive it.

Just an update for ya. It was the sports soft, that tune with sports soft is a no go, but with comfort soft it’s a go. So… that tune with sports soft and stock suspension it can be calculated OR that tune with comfort soft and fully customizable suspension can be calculated.
What was this latest update addressing? Tires and Suspension. So they’ve goofed something up.

Yeah, I tuned this specifically for Comfort Soft. Was trying to replicate the Tran Am Camaro. It’s roughly the same horsepower and weight etc. I found specs online to match it up.
Really enjoyed this tune before the update. Could hang it out there, can’t just go flooring it out of corners, you had to work the throttle. Felt a lot like project cars 2 to me. Don’t just have grip for days but it was saveable. Goodwood I could slide so easily through the st Mary’s section. Tried it today, it just gets away on me now.
Feel free to copy that tune and see if you can get the ⚠️ to go away running sports soft. Let me know how it goes and if you managed to get it to disappear, post the settings pages.
My Plymouth Superbird is also affected. The only other car is my '63 Vette. I'll try the suspensions setting trick as some of my other cars had big changes in handling after the update.

Fixed my Demon with a simple revert to normal brakes. Thank you all! I love this game! No matter what, it's our spouse. I'd like to add that if there were a simple 'autotune' or 'PPSet', this would be a non-issue. Then we can tweak as needed from there. Just sayin', yo!

well. now at this time am writing this reply. the issue or the bug still exist. i have it with the 63 c3 corvette when i install the supercharger. but after i read this thread and all the comments here i play around it and what i found ( am not sure yet ) but when the pp goes above 700 it buged and the goes to ⚠️ the error. even when with everything ok with the supercharger on. and when i drive the car in stock condition in one of the events in the Daytona circuit. the car is unstable on the high speed corner. the rear immediately slide like i want to drift even i am not!!! which confirm with the handling bug issue.. and i think it's only with the American cars!! 🤔 i don't know and am not sure. because this the only car i have this issue with at to this moment.
am really start to hate this idea about the pp.. 😩😒

In essence, the PP system calculates the rating by a background simulation of driving the car.
If the car is literally impossible for the AI to drive, you get ⚠️. That means that while things like suspension and gearing settings don't directly affect the PP calculation (power, weight, tyres, downforce do), they can cause the ⚠️ to appear. It sounds like you're having issues driving it yourself, so potentially there's an issue with how you have the suspension set up or you're using tyres that are too grippy for the suspension.

the issue i have with how the car drive is in a stock configuration. as you get it from the brand central. which kind of weird to do this!! even if i put the RS tire is still do it but less than the normal tire. but when i put the custom rear wing it kind of drive perfectly. and the pp still calculating good. until i put the mid-rang supercharger.
so what i think with all of this and most of the player ( if not all of them ) having this issue and all talking about PD kind of changing the physics of the game. i think this could be this issue.
because when the rear tire of the car slides in the daytona circuit it look like something wrong..!! it's not the actual car.
