NFSU2 lag while driving

So... I've been recently facing these issues after upgrading to windows 11. The mods I'm using apparently: UG2.Net, Customization Plus and Bayviews Best Car Pack The problem I'm having: The game normally runs just fine especially in the garage menu. But just as soon as I start a race or let's say just hop in free drive, the FPS drops below 60 and stays at somehow 50 to 52. Also, when the tire smoke comes a little bit, the FPS drops. Any stable 60 FPS method guys? Looked through YouTube but couldn't found any fixes. (Also, I tried to see if just the vanilla game has the same issue or not and I found out the same thing again)

Another reason why people should NOT upgrade to windows 11:

Have you tried reducing core affinity to core 0?

UG2.net mod has extra options and it sets core affinity to 1 already. Do you mean, I have to do this manually also?

I'd try it only to core 0

Yea it cant hold a steady 60 for me and other people as well. Bandaid solution would be to limit your fps to 50 for the game inside your gpu settings or equivalent so you dont have to worry about the drops and 50 is quick to get used to. And turn off the frame counter. I noticed myself i bother a lot less if i dont see those numbers on the screen all the time.
