Actually, using a Group B car to represent for the whole WRC cars is a bad representation as it is known that Group B cars has much less low-end torque than Group A, WRC (1997-2011), WRC (2017-2021) and Group Rally1.
This is because in real-life, the turbocharge system (Which sport bigger turbo and lacks anti-lag system) in Group B cars only works in a narrower, top-end rev range and have massive turbo lags. To compensate the lack of lower-end torque, drivers in real-life have to clutch-kicks to have the turbo spool up quicker. The clutch-kick is not needed in cars belonging to succeeding classes because their turbocharge system works at the wider rev range than the Group B cars.
See Peugeot 205 T16 for a more extreme case for this.
I'm not using it to represent the WRC series of vehicles, I am reporting it as also having an issue with its power band. It should definitely not be performing like a NA only car or big turbo only car, which is what it is doing right now (it's a very strange highly sloped power curve). That's nonsense.
Edit: Fat chance of getting a supercharged, turbocharged engine to not be able to build any boost at 5k and 6k when it peaks at 8k, boost should already be peaking.
