gt5 prologue close to reality

[eSZee]

I deliberately locked up my rear tyres once in real life, at slow speed and the car full 360 in a blink of eye - scary. I'm glad the physics in GT5 will be better than in Prologue, and more true to life

Did you crap your pants at the same time and jerk the wheel in any direction? No way would your car do a 360 at slow speeds. Even if you jerked the wheel, a 180 would be more believable. Were you on a frozen lake? Were your tires made of plastic?

it was wet, and I was approaching an intersection with slight upward slope, so the speed was less than 10kph if that

So the rear turned towards the top, and you still did a 360 doing 6mph?

yes, it spun so fast, I couldn't believe it. I'll never try that antic again
Felt like the car was on an oil slick.

When the tyres are locked they pretty much don't grip at all it seems, especially when it's wet. So I'd imagine if your travelling over 150kph and do the same, the grip levels would be similar

A 360 at 10 km/h? You'd have to actually be driving the car on an oil slick to get it that far. Unless you're on ice, most cars won't get more than 90 degrees out at 10 km/h. If they even get that far. Especially not going uphill.
