YES. this is great for the racers/drifters/rally guys.it adds another level to the physics system and overall realism 👍
(ABS'less race cars. FINNALY)
people can take the ABS system off their cars in real life, most notably on cars from the late 80's and 90's. just think of it as a car modification
A Speed 12 without ABS and TCS is faster, it just requires Yoda like concentration levels to achieve thatfaster without ABS? that's good news, i really didn't thought about it this way. when i thought about ABS off, i thought of a TVR speed 12 without TCS. i theory its faster without it, but to achieve that... well, i will have to wait and try it for myself before jumping into any conclusions.
ok? all im saying is that its unnecessary. its one of those things you decide on before the race, not during.
If they took out the ABS system they should make gaming steering wheels with decent pedals, not the ones DFP and MOMO have and I'm talking about the new GT wheel. Those old DFP and MOMO pedals are a joke, pain and fear to push cause there's nor resistance when you apply your foot like in a real car. In this case it's very easy to lock brakes and not even understand how you did it, other than calculate the pedal travel, but you cannot feel it. I heard the G25 is much better with pedals, is that right?
so here we go, full braking test with abs on and off on fuji superspeedway (long stretch good for picking up speed). I encoded the movie with divx 6 and mp3 sound so that everybody even with low spec pc should be able to enjoy this new feature, atm I'm really freaking out and dashing around in the s2000 without abs trying not to lock up the brakes :-) but I am still far away of mastering complete non-locking braking without abs

IMO, all 'aids' are for soccer moms in mini vans & fat cats in Escalades too busy to do their own 'driving', relying on software to make up for their lack of skill & attention. My RL mustang has no 'aids' & I don't use any in Prologue so this is great news to me. Any 'aids' are just a crutch for lack of skill.
Evo test drove the Speed 12 a couple of years ago, you can give it full throttle if you're progressive with the thottle, but even then it took several laps of Silverstone before the tester got the confidence to do it and I tihnk he was in 4th. He was spinning the wheels in 3rd and 4th irc on the first laps. Speed 12 = Unmatched mentalness.A real Speed 12 needs Yoda like concerntration to stop it parking itself up a tree let alone making it go faster it should be confined to the railway tracks.........when they know the've gone too far TVR stick a speed 12 badge on it LOL
Have I understud this right,if ABS to 0,you cant change it to 1 or 2 from your new DF GT wheel,cause it can be changed only from the main menu?And DF GT only goes from 1-10 on ABS?
Wait a minute you change your cars setting during a race? That is ****ing retarded!! lmfao...

Race car drivers do it.. Maybe what you are sayin is retarded? I dont know..
Numer0bis thanks a lot for the video it was great can anyone else post any other videos
i found the video very interesting especially when i saw the car that lock up and it still stop early than the one with the abs
did u break the same time and were u going at the same speed Numer0bis or anyone else?
Real life has tire marks on the road when do a burnout or spin the tires excessively......
Being able to switch on different levels of ABS during a race will give you a huge advantage in lap times. Knowing wich corners to have higher levels of ABS etc...
Oh and don't forget to put on that TCS when a sharp corner comes up and it requires you to slow down a lot and accelerate very fast with a RWD car. Ya seems pretty retarded that you can do that during a race real life or not...
I forgot to add I didn't know you could adjust these things in a stock car in real life (race car maybe). So if im driving a real honda integra I can adjust my ABS and TCS level in real life? how do you do that?....
