Welcome VIPs! Rivals event

In the restrictions for the event it lists ‘Stock Only’.
All the LB details for the car show it as a stock car PI C472.
However, it seems that just about every replay from the top end of the LB is unavailable/won’t load.
If you go to someone who has the tune available for download, grab it and then go to load it on to your own car it shows as an S Class monster with over 1000HP.

Surely something isn’t adding up here?

I noticed in the Nissan gtr rival, all the leaders are way over stock, I don’t know if it’s allowed or not

The one in Suzuka? Yes
It’s allowed to upgrade way over stock.

I was wondering this myself as I was about 11-12 seconds off the pace of the leaders thinking what on earth am I missing here… lol

I managed to run a replay of #2 world-wide I believe and according to the telemetry the car has over 1000hp and is blaring around in 3rd gear doing 180+mph. Something is definitely not right.
