This is why I use my other account at times, because crap like this happens, this was all in one race C last night. There was more but this was the worst of it, I tried to drive clean but I got fed up by the end of it and started fighting back, went from SR A to C lol.
Seriously, all in one race.
They were drunk.
Given enough time, I could see liking it better, as long as I can get to where I'm faster. That's my only reason for switching. Right away, it's obvious that my controller recovers from oversteer more quickly. It could be that lowering the steering wheel sensitivity will help, because I get the impression that it's turning the wheels a bit more than I want it to. Figuring out the brake pedal will be my other endeavor. I definitely don't like the FFB. I don't see the benefit. It makes it feel like the car doesn't have power steering.Ah ok, cool. This is what I have mine set too, I thought controller sensitivity had to do with a DS4 so I turned it off/down, maybe I should look into that one lol.

Congrats on getting the rig all set up, do you think you are going to like it better?
A couple of things that may help. I like high sensitivity, but have torque low (maybe 4?). I had the same problem with the brakes. I use ABS default for now. I felt like I couldn't get enough pressure. I finally tried them without the rubber stop block...no good because max braking comes as maybe 80% of pedal travel without it. Then I shaved the blocks lenght with a razor by maybe 2mm. That helped, but may have been un-necessary. I have since discovered that the cars stop MUCH faster with less pressure. My continuing problem is trying to find that max braking sweet spot since I don't seem to have much feel for the braking. Definitely try braking lightly. I think you'll be pleasantly suprised.
I was doing it with left foot braking. I was also doing it barefoot. Not sure if shoes make a difference.I don’t like the FFB on high either, but I do like to be able to feel where there weight of the car is(side to side anyways), especially in street cars, so having some FFB is nice. Plus, in theory, your wheel will last longer because it’s not working as hard. Brakes are another story, I removed the rubber brake mod because I prefer travel to pressure, my left foot has never used a real brake before so it wasn’t used to using pressure to stop the car. Are you left or right foot braking?
I have a feeling you’ll be quite a bit faster than before once you get the hang out it.

I've seen videos of people wearing gloves, too. Don't really know what that's about. Maybe I need to go shopping for a helmet and a 5-point harness. Oh, and a fire suit.
Mind you, i'm nowhere near being a reference on the subject, i've been racing on gts and a g29 since last december but, lately i've been able to better my times a bit and the most important thing for me was to realise that i didn't need to smash the brake pedal on every corner. Smooth modulation is much more efficient. Still have a lot to learn and practice but i already see a difference with the smooth inputs.
I think that's why Sven ended up qualifying, last time. The first mile, or so is like trying to fight your way through a Tokyo subway station.Race B: Nürburgring Nordschleife - N300 One Make Car from Garage - 1 lap
Surely this Nurb event will be a good race if you can separate the wheat from the chaff in the first few turns? I will defo try this once just to see how it is:tup:
