Hello GT people,
So first off I'd like to say that I've been privileged enough to have driven a real Porsche 911 GT3 RS twice. (One owned by a friend, and another at a car meet with a guy who is friends with my friend who also owns one. I think they met at a Porsche 911 GT3 RS club meet.)

So my gripe is basically, despite changing the TCS from 0 - 5. it doesn't seem to handle as im hoping the developers would of wanted it to handle.
It seems to slide all over the place with any given level of throttle, where in real life without the TCS active, it doesn't slide this much.

I'm wondering if there is a set-up people use in game for this car, please let me know as I'd like to be able to enjoy it more.

PS: If anyone ever gets a chance to test drive this vehicle in real life, I would HIGHLY recommend it. You'll never look at sports cars the same way again.

In fairness, were you tracking it or just driving on the streets? There should be a huge difference between the two. :)

I didn't find any issue driving it with TCS off. I'll admit I was intimidated at first in the one make Sport race and left TCS at 2 during FP. It was awful. :yuck: Tried at 1 and it was still pretty bad trying to keep it under control. I decided to jump headfirst into the fire and put TCS at 0 and lo and behold it was much easier to control with out the TCS trying to interfere. The back still did try to swing around but being able to keep consistent throttle on made it a great drive in the end. I've not had the pleasure of driving one of these superb machines but it felt like I imagined it would: difficult but rewarding.
 
I've been having this problem as well. As DigitalBaka said, I somehow find myself having an easier time with it with TCS off.
I also have the issue that with TCS on during a turn, the TCS starts to act crazy on it. So yeah, GT3 RS is one of those interesting cars that I'll need more practice on.

Speaking of IRL GT3 RS, I would love to drive one. There's one that looks sick (it's the one on my profile pic) and I would be honored to even sit in the car lol.

I drove my friends GT3 on a track with him, only got to do 2 laps. the track was the Circuit ICAR track in mirabel airport in montreal canada.

the 2nd time was on public roads.

yeah, i'll need to put better tires as ive read before from MSX 7, and try again with 0 TCS.

I highly recommend it, lots of fun if you get a chance. even sitting in one makes your adrenalin pump and your hands shake!
