You can notice car's damage via the point where the gear changes. For example, the 2016 Audi with all but last engine upgrade, It changes 6 to 7 on 365 km/h. When you hit wall or pit the bot your car will changes the gear on much lower speed On my case like 365km/h to 360 km/h. This significantly reduces the top speed. This is the reason why Endurance Champion is harder than Endurance Kings for some player.
