Is this part of the tyre wear or a glitch ?PS4

Ok....
Race regs for our league room....

R6. INDY ROAD - TWILIGHT RACE - 32 LAPS - 1/10/17
Qualifying @ 7pm - Medium Cloud
Race Start @ 8pm - light cloud / clear / light cloud / clear
- Time progression REAL
- Compulsory pit stop : NO
- Fuel : OFF
- TYRE WEAR : Accelerated
- Weather progression : Sync to race
- Time progression : Real time
- Damage off
- NON TUNE
- RACE HARD TYRE

So we get through a prac run for the league race and get to about lap 20 and down the front straight the wheel starts to clip....as we do more laps it gets progressively worse till the point that the car is undrivable with a few laps to go...Only happened on the straights, as the tyre loads up in the corners it temporarily disappeared, but came back on the straight

We had a mix of T500, T300 and G29 wheels and everyone had the same issue

Question @IanBell and anyone else that might be able to help..... is this to do with the tyre model , wear or something else...

Race takes about 45 mins with the posted regs. track temp was between 31-32*

Needless to say we adjusted for the league, and changed the wear to authentic.....need to know if this is to do with wear or a game issue we need to tailor our regs around

Thanks in advance

How bad was your tire wear? in PC1 you would get vibration in the wheel on the straights once the tires were down to about 5% or less tread left.

Haven't ever gotten that low in PC2 yet on tires, so no idea if that carried over.

Tyres were at about 70% for the last few laps..

Just got a message for this weeks race, 40 laps at COTA.....apparently after 30 odd laps the wheel starts clipping as well....wear on authentic though
Will test this one tonight...surely it cant be right ?

70% worn or left?
I’ve heard that the tread is only to half way on the indicator so after 50% you’re technically on belts/canvas, hence the clipping.
Personally I haven’t worn anything near close to that yet though so I can’t say for sure from my knowledge.

70% left....using the app..

Even the guys who did a race run today for the enduro said he only got to 68% (32% worn) and got the clipping from about lap 30

Which app? I've noticed that RSDash seems to show full tire (tread AND carcass) even when the 50% option is selected. So if 70% left showing, then you really only have 20% remaining that is still tread. The rest is carcass.

But that still means about 40% of the tread layer is left (since tread layer is 50% of total tire). Seems a bit early to be getting the tire wear related vibration.

What wheels are you experiencing this on? I myself am on PC with Fanatec gear and have not noticed it that early on.

RSDASH.. with 20% tread left (if what you say is right regarding the carcass) then there should not be any issue.....

Last night we ran 40 laps at COTA with Authentic tyre wear and it happened again from about lap 25, and got progressively worse for the last 15 laps. Laps 38-40 were terrible. Only does it in a straight line......
We had a mix of T300, T500 a T150 and G29s....all felt the same thing at the same time....

This was the end of the race, the FL wear when it started clipping was at about 73% according to my app....Other guys were slightly better wear (about 75%) but had the same clipping in the same spots.....

The race before at Indy road the tyre wear was no where near this level as a much shorter race....yet had the same clipping....
Really is messing with our league regs !

@IanBell does this sound like its the wear on the tyre causing the issue ? pressures maybe ???
All rooms are stock, NON TUNE on RACE HARD

 

[stucar17]

@IanBell ?? Anything ????

 

[stucar17]

Can i just say that after making the same enquiry on here and also in the project cars official forum, the absolute lack of support or assistance is breathtaking. I know that @IanBell and the guys probably get quite a few requests a day, but i cant explain the frustration when a big league cant get an answer to what we are finding a game breaking / options breaking situation.....

Maybe i would have been better off abusing the crap of ian and his team just to get a response from one of them in the form of a ban !

I've had clipping issues from tyre wear that get progressively worse on straights not corners in a GT3 car. Wear was at 50% when it started to.happen.

It's a deliberate ffb response it seems. Not very realistic or immersive. What I will say is the undicator/info must be wrong if that's happening at about 70%. Plan a pitstop or deal with it?
