When I use a controller, ABS Default seems to work better - especially in the wet - but I'm too lazy to remember to change things, so I keep it at ABS Weak.

I've been in the game for quite a while, and have seen a bunch of glitched starts, but I haven't seen this before.
I started off at full-throttle before the timer even started counting down.
This is the view I had, in real time. I wasn't sure what to do.


I won it.

Which is better/What's the difference between <default> and <weak> ABS settings?

If I'm opening up a debate as old as 'Vinyl -vs- CD' with this one, apologies...😇

I'm a lazy guy, so ABS weak always on for me. I reckon there's maybe 0.1-0.15 sec per km difference between on or off, being off the fastest solution. Btw, modern gt cars or prototypes use ABS under IMSA-ACO Le Mans rules.
Since I felt competitive with the Alfa at DF, regardless the level of sportsmanship, I'll be around Suzuka this week. Only 4 laps is not much, but the rolling start will help minimise the first corner's carnage, hopefully.

Use ABS default with the Gr4 cars, they seem to run better with it. Just because you and transition easier between braking and acceleration much quicker.

If you are super buttery on the brakes then maybe weak but it's not needed just coast then turn ins and you can do sector one with almost no braking apart from T1/2 combo everything else can be done like a pendulum.

Edit: spelling

Thanks for the input and I figured there's not much to be gained from either or it'd be a bigger topic 'round here. As with sooo many things when it comes to driving, personal preference may reign supreme, lol.

Kinda like you, I'm feeling a bit emboldened by the power of Busso...gonna miss the tunnel runs, tho. So many rpm....😁



EDIT
This is pure headphone joy...unless you're single. If you identify as single, this needs cranked so the neighbors hear it. 👍

I'll upload a video tomorrow showing S1 and 2 at Suzuka in GR4 you don't need hardly any braking mostly degna 2 and the hairpin obviously turn 1 but you coast most of that in GR4

Spoon I can't get right and the fast guys are way quicker than I am so it's all pinch of salt stuff, follow their ghosts.

But for fun, I'll be back from work early so will do a vid if anyone is interested

It appears they turned the yellow flag penalties on high, despite almost never enforcing them normally. I got 2 penalties totaling 6 seconds in one Race C, the first time not even seeing a car or a flag. Then I accidentally punted someone way off the track, no penalties at all. Oh wait, I guess everything is working fine. /s

Did you cross the pit entry/exit lines?
