It still wheelspins but you can control the car better, and it doesn't drag out like before. Before the update you could go 200km/h and when the gear changed it started to wheelspin wich was not realistic at all. But i understand what you tryna say.
I highly doubt that...
That’s your clutch slipping, time for a new one.
It’s just hard to believe that’s all. I mean my Audi has around 400 hp and will only spin in first when it’s wet. Does it have a stupid amount of torque since it’s a diesel? Genuinely curious now.
So a car with high downforce should have less grip...The grip is unbelievable in real life with high downforce cars. Even top class time attack cars have extreme grip levels because of downforce.
Gran Turismo will always be the centre of discussions. It’s the biggest name in the racing genre and the only way some people (and the franchises they follow) get any eyes is by grabbing onto the coattails of GT Sport.
If the Audi in your profile picture is your car (414bhp B7 RS4?) as standard it produces 317 ft-lb at 5,500 rpm (much higher up the rev range than a diesel) but it also has Audi's Quattro system with automatic torque biasing, an electronic differential lock and "Anti-Slip Regulation" (otherwise known as Traction Control to normal people). Theoretically, with decent tyres, it shouldn't even wheelspin in the wet (but then again, if you live somewhere in the US that only sporadically gets rain, or only in the winter, your roads turn to glass/ice when it does rain anyway!
)
Was waiting for a post like this. Will also preface this by saying there's no concrete proof as to what is really behind it, but this is what I suspect.
Close enough, it’s a B7 S4, still has the 4.2 V8 but it took a little more work to reach the magic over 400 number.If the Audi in your profile picture is your car (414bhp B7 RS4?) as standard it produces 317 ft-lb at 5,500 rpm (much higher up the rev range than a diesel) but it also has Audi's Quattro system with automatic torque biasing, an electronic differential lock and "Anti-Slip Regulation" (otherwise known as Traction Control to normal people).

While my 130bhp B6 diesel produces 210* ft-lb, ~100 less than yours, it does so at just 1750-2500 rpm, a whole order lower in the rev range. This makes it comparatively more likely to induce wheelspin due to the low speed / low revs / high torque combo. Also my B6 diesel doesn't have any of the fancy Quattro and more advanced ESP stuff that the B7 RS4 does. With ESP (and thus TC) on my tyres will give a little squeal in 1st and (if shifting down early) 2nd before the TC kicks in. Obviously with ESP (and TC) off it will squeal like a piggy in 1st and slightly less so in 2nd, in 3rd the speed is too high (and due to gear ratios is slightly above the max torque range of the engine where diesel engines start to run out of steam) to get any wheel spin out of it.

If you want to try it we could swap cars? I don't mind. Really.
Since you have such a great explanation I’ll give the switching cars a strong maybe instead of a no...
I really like the B layout, don't know if you have tried that yet. Is a tonne of fun.
