Try going from a Radical to a 925hp Mustang  Throttle control doesn't cover it  Get ABS off  When me and my mates have a race, it's hilarious when we all pile up to a corner as you know someone's going to hit the brake too much and slide into a pile up

I did start off with everything off but I just can't do the clutch & brake with the same hand, I either try and feather the clutch or lock the brakes up into a wall where I get my fingers mixed up

The amount of times I've done that is silly! Or not used the clutch at all and damaged the car  You get used to it though!I find I'm coming into corners far better as I'm not relying on the ABS and stomping on the brakes at the last second. Got to gradually slow down until you feel the lock before a bend. Have you tried the TG track in the Radical? It's silly

The 1st and 2nd place AI cars are too fast to be worrying about cornering perfect with all aids off. You just wouldnt catch them if you did. Going into and out of corners as quickly as you can without the car wheelspinning at all is how i catch those in front, but having all aids off would be a complete nightmare. Wouldnt be as fun.
I use manual without clutch
Brake line only (computer doesnt brake for me at all)
Sim damage

Think mines still FWD Not got round to changing it yet..
White and lowered on the standard alloys. 
Looking forward to playing with the Cosworth and RS500 for free.

I snapped them both up too. Left the EsCos engine in it and it's awesome! Didn't see the point in upgrading to the 5cyl.

That's what I find fun tbh! Make any error at all when coming down the gears and braking, be it too much brakes, or too quick with the clutch, and you're locking up

I got a 7:53 I did go off the track majorly when I went flat out around a corner I really shouldn't have though Only my second time around it in this game, so will need a lot more practice! Coming up to bouncy corners at 175 in that twitchy fucker is some experience

PMSL @ your avatar Ollie I wouldn't even bother putting the driver aids on if it was just to get a good time. Completely defeats the purpose.

Stay off the kerbs if you are using the Radical, I had a sideways moment at like 160 earlier and I thought it was never going to end
Got until 5am till I get tired, going to smash some Radical laps out, not happy I've gone from 18th in the world to 66th. Top guy has got 6:53 or something, fuck knows how

It's everything to do with the setup of the car, it's got barely any suspension travel and it'll go round corners quicker without hitting the kerbs, unless flat obviously. My mates keep complaining they're rolling cars, well duh when the kerbs 2 foot high

loving the hockenheim track, the long run down to the hairpin is just ace when you nail the braking zone
