After several rounds of downloading and uninstalling the game, I came to understand that this mod is not compatible with Extended Customization V4.
Because often at the beginning of a race, the opponent's car will have a missing part, causing the car to appear to be floating in the air and Nos trail Effects are gone.

@LFQZ92 This has been fixed yesterday.

Hi.

There appears to be a bug with the 911 Carrera S (997s) where performance upgrades aren’t being applied.

I think this is caused by the pvehicle, induction[2], Class field being set to “0x00000000” rather than “induction”

Anyways, here’s the fix for a future patch or anyone else who stumbles across the issue:

update_field pvehicle 997s induction[2] Class induction

I’m not sure if this issue is also present in the OGVI install, but you may also want to check that.
