Actually you did, repeatedly, that's why you were told to stop playing the man. You also seem to forget that I can quite easily post up the youtube abuse here if I wish!
Was I racing? No (not that it matters - I will come back to this)
Was I doing a comparison of a GT-86 in two titles with reality? Yes
Does the GT86 have TCS in reality? Yes
Do real-world drivers take advantage of late activation TCS systems when racing if they can? Yes, they certainly do.
Ahh back to playing the man (or in this case men, or people).
OK, let's get a few (real world) basics in place. Traction Control is not a magic wand or hand of God. Its an active driver safety system that exists in many, many different forms and (much like ABS) is in reality far better at doing its job that the vast majority of drivers (including professional racing drivers). Your claim that Traction Control makes it impossible to test the limits of a car is utter nonsense, it will help you, but it will not stop you getting to the limit or even over the limit.
I've driven AMG E45 and C65's at Mercedes Benz worlds handling circuit both with and without TCS and its utterly possible to get them sideways with TCS on, I've driven numerous GT86's on the road and track in a variety of weather conditions (I came very close to buying one) and the TCS system in the car is a late intervention system, combine that with the narrow (and low grip as OEM fit tyres) and you have a car that will most certainly break traction at the limit even with TCS switched on (and if you don't believe me, GT86 and BRZ forums are full of owners who have experienced the exact same).
As such testing cars that come equipped with TC in reality, in a title is utterly sound logic, as you most certainly can still test the limits of the car (or you should be able to) and you can also test how well the physics engine is actually modelling the TCS system as well (and guess which one, in a head to head with PC2 does this best - you will not like the answer).
I'm not the one stalking someone's youtube comments or throwing insults and abuse about.
How gracious of you.
Oh dear, you still don't get it, do you?
How many wet track days have you actually been to? If you go to one and it pouring down, damn right you leave TC switched on, as binning your own car doesn't get fixed with a quick restart!
The original NSX had TC and was neither that powerful or had that much grip, was Senna wrong?
And TCS is only for rich people, nope not at all.
