My GT-ONE's turning feels weird

The GT-ONE is an MR car. But when I try to turn at a sharp corner while braking, it is understeering! Although I like understeering better than oversteering, MR cars do not understeer. Wow, what a bizarre experience :eek: :boggled: :odd:
 
simple adjustment of how much pressure is being applied, personly i dont slow down, just go into the brake settings and change it there.
 
Have you tried lowering ASM and TCS, after that try to powersilde that turn abit, it should help. I had a similiar problem with the Viper awhile back, GTVault.com helped me out with some good settings.
 
For ASM and TCS on my GT-ONE, I set it at level 7 on my ASM and level 12 on my TCS. I do not want to oversteer so I set it at those levels.

try braking earlier...

the zonda does the same i believe!?

I absolutely hate that Zonda. There's always something wrong on it. Which is why I would like to win the actual race car before I attempt the Zonda races in proffessional. :mad: :mad: :mad:

That's kinda too much isn't it?

Try putting ASM to Level 3 and TCS to level 5 or 6.
 
i hate drifting... I just take the corners easy. to me, if you spin out in a corner then you have mashed the gas too early and deserve to.
 
ving, putting the ASM and TCS at levels 0-2 would make it a liability to drifting because you oversteer at the corners even though you do not like drifting.
 
ASM is evil 👎
Try the car with ASM @ 0.
If that doesn't help, then you have chassis setup issues or maybe it's your technique.
Posting your setup would help.
 
I would rather stick to grip driving than putting the levels at 2-0. I played GT3 for a long time now and with the acquired skill of grip driving, it really does not matter to me anymore :cool:

No, you can still grip drive with the asm off and tcs at 1-2. I know, cause i do it.
 
Klonie, GRift or drifting doesn't matter. ASM is about stability management. The computer in the car reacts to how much slippage there is, adjusting dabbing hte brakes here and there as you slide out of control. Dropping the ASM to 0 is a good thing.

You refer to the car drfiting when it's that low, that means the back end tends to lift out. My guess is that you're braking a bit too late, and you're heavy on the throttle at exit. Try driving a stock Lotus Esprit. It's an MR car that at anything over 110mph will cause it to understeer even with ASM and TCS set to 0.

Oliver is one of hte fastest guys on GTP, and he never uses ASM. I'd be willing to bet he never goes above 3 on the TCS setting.

Over steer at corner exit is very likely due to being to heavy on th gas. Proper throttle modulation will help. No need to stomp on the gas, but rather a smooth transition from braking in a straight line, a bit of coasting into the corner, and a smooth application of gas as you round the Apex.

Here's a real life hint... Straight from the factory, the TVR speed six doesn't have TCS or ASM. That's not a drifters car, but rather a real drivers car.

Exactly, and that's why you should resist using ASM, and only a dab of TCS. IN an overall acceleration test, run a 400hp car with TCS at 10 and then again at 5 and then again at 1 or 2. The only way a computer can control your tracion at full throttle, is to limit the amount of power you can apply to the tires.

This discussion can easily delve into physics and application of friction and weight levels. Basically, with a certain amount of power, you can break the tires loose. That is dependent upon how rapidly you apply power to the drive wheels. If it's too rapid, you break traciton and spin. Not enough applicatino and you can't acclerate as fast as possible. THere is that moment you want to reach that is just shy of spinning and all of hte force is applied to the road. The TCS controls how much power you can rapidly apply at any given time. Limiting this, means you aren't accelerating as fast as you possibly can.
