Impossible to drive without abs

Haha i used the analog for the throttle too, though i can't slam the brakes and the throttle at the same time with ease since you have to pull the analog to brake.

I never knew you guys race with ABS 0, I keep locking up even though i feather my brakes.

Yeah, many people criticize me about not being able to trail brake, but I've proven it's not necessary to do so at all. The ABS 0 I only do it for fun, in cars that don't have ABS in real life. Almost 80% of my cars which a modern, I use ABS 1. I've gotten so used to it that it's hard for me to find a difference between having it on or off.

Try the brake bias, you'll see a low setting will almost completely eliminate lock up and still maintain a good braking distance.
 
I guess F1 cars are just about impossible to drive without abs, you gota be so fit have abs like Bruce Lee to drive it competitively:D

My thought regard to the way of braking to decelerate from top speed, you slam on brakes as hard you can and because the rotors are spinning so fast the tyres simply won't lock up. After a moment, could be a second or fraction of a second, your callipers start to get the better of rotors the tyres start to lock up. Listen to tyre screech or just anticipate the timing, before the lock up happens ease off the pressure. The slower the car gets the more the callipers overpower the rotors and easier for the tyres to lock up. So you gota ease off more pressure, gradually and smoothly without locking up (the hardest part of braking in general). Do the exact opposite of throttling out of corners. Is this correct?

When driving normal cars on road we were taught to brake slowly at first and gradually apply pressure but this is only the case with the passenger car suspension and cheapest tyres you could imagine and the benefit of being gentle and smooth outweighs the drawbacks of letting the car coasting and doing nothing for a moment between acc and decel transition. Am I right?
 
No, what usually happens is your braking causes the front to dive and the rear to lift and the rear tires lose grip because there isn't enough weight on them. With the default settings of 5/5 there is almost always too much rear brake.

That was true in GT5 initially, where 5/5 was literally a 50/50 split. Then they did something that made it all inconsistent, where some cars were fine with a forward bias at 5/5, whilst others were practically rearward, and everything in between.

In GT6, the bias was more stock-like out of the box. For most stock cars, 5/5 is just a relative measure of the stock bias (expressed / controlled as separate "powers", annoyingly). Racing cars are different, but 5/5 is usually still forward enough to drive.
