Well it doesn't really reduce the slip of the tires, what it does is add more grip when the tires start to slip.
Beat me to it....
That's my 'take' on what was said, I have no clue how the programing of GT5 works. But I am curious as to how you can cut the 'slip' of a tire, without sacrificing speed to do so?

:banghead:Because it adds grip when the tires start to slip, the slip is reduced. More grip while slipping=less slip.
That's what i meant. The extent of the slip is reduced, not the potential to slip is reduced. You misunderstood me!

It's irrelevant as to how they do it, the end result is the same, reduced slip.

What is the difference if they reduce slip or add grip if the end result is the same?

Furthermore how the hell can you tell the difference?

It's quite easy to tell the difference actually and they are far from the same. Only one of the possibilities results in faster speeds, whereas the other one would reduce them.
 
I dont use the SRF. I have TC on 4 i think. I havnet played for over a day now as ive got sheet to do but ill try that SRF to see what happens.

Hopefully later today or tonight i can get some tuning in and post my settings for you guys to attack.
 
More luck than anything once your tune is good enough I think, someone very lucky could hit 53.5xx but doing a 53 two or more laps in a row would be an incredible feat. Many places I was watching my ghost get grip before me and I had consistent low 54s.

Thats my goal. If i hit a 53.4 ill be happy with that. Then ill tuned it to a different track where i can unleash it further. Probably GVS. That will be a hard track because of all the fast corners. Might even tune it on Racing Softs to get the ultimate out of it.

Wrong! That's only if applied at all times, where as I suggest it only applies when slip occurs. It's not called added grip so it should go without saying it won't add grip, but rather reduce slip when it occurs, hence "Slip Force Reduction".

Explain to me, how you reduce slip, without adding grip while simultaneously making the car faster.
Please, I'm all ears.
If there is a way. which there very well may be, I'm genuinely interested in knowing what it is.

And I thought it was 'Skid Force Recovery'?

Because it's a video game, and like TCS or ASM it's not on at all times but depending on circumstance. The only benefit to ASM & TCS is the on screen indicators so you can tell when it's activated.

I believe it's not full time as acceleration doesn't seem to be improved & braking distances (without sliding) are not apparently shorter.

However, I've only tested it once and realized it's cheap speed. It let's you get more aggressive while being more forgiving, allowing faster lap times and easier driving. I toss it with all the assist.

ASM hurts, TCS is one that can help or hurt, SRF just helps.

You do realize, that you didn't say a single word, that comes even close, to being considered a potential answer, to the question you were asked... right?

Yeah I did. It's a video game and as I said the SRF can be activated according to circumstance (slipping) where in that circumstance the Program can be programed to reduce the amount of slippage, or increase grip at that moment when the circumstances calls for it (either way the end result is the same) , having no impact elsewhere.
 
Wow... Just...wow. Are you joking right now, or do you seriously not get it?
You're just screwing with me right! No one can be that oblivious.

Your oblivious, & if we aren't talking about the same thing (if you don't get it, we must be), your even more so for continuing on.
 
I truly, honestly, feel bad for you right now.
I'm mean, but I'm not cruel, so I won't continue, if you aren't following.
Enjoy your night man.

It seams your not following or just going on and on for no reason.

If I'm so oblivious, enlighten me smart ass.

No, I'm serious Noobster. This is no game or trick, I sincerely feel bad for you right now. Let's just end it and be done with it. We both agree SRF shouldn't be used. Arguing the physics of a feature neither of us advocate using, is pointless. It semantics and technicalities and neither of us need to waste any more time with this discussion. Let's just move on. Agreed?

Relax people go driving.. I have a new SLS to tests at my garage it's a blast... you will see
 
My current settings without SRF netted me a 53.840.

My new time with SRF on was a 51.965.

SRF is worth 2 seconds a lap around Tsukuba
