Wheel Lift

[Jay]

I was driving my just bought 2007 Mini Cooper S on Eiger to get a feel for it and noticed in the replay that it was lifting it's unloaded wheel in the air without provocation of a bump/curb, great to see the physics engine allowing this which is a first for Gran Turismo.

This one is a bit further back and harder to see just to show I didn't fly over bumps or anything, it just lifted and came back down smoothly.

On the next couple corners it was lifting then dropping in a quick repeated way causing some great tyre sounds.

Anyway to the topic of this forum subsection, please share some tyre lifting pictures!

(Note this is not a jumping curbs thread, yet you can throw a couple in if they are nice)

Impressed! I didn't realise the cars could do this in GT5. I don't have any photos to share right now, sorry. I'll get some tomorrow

Wow I'm so happy to see that level of realism in GT5. Great pic!

this could be done in GT2, i need to try this with my civic

I remember people debating this during the leak pictures/videos phase. This is the first real evidence I've seen.

Mad hops !!!

its not wheel lift. in the first pic the shadow under the rear wheel is from the mirror, the tire is actualy behind the shadow. the bottom pic is just a shadow from the tire, ps3 has bad shadows. just an illusion

Tripod FTW

Always something new to learn on GT5. That's pretty sick.

I noticed this the other day too after looking at a picture of my 458 on the 'Ring.

I was wondering if the inside rear wheel lifting through certain corners when i was drivng my Civic

How is that possible? The light in the photo is coming from top right to bottom left, it would need to be the other way round if the shadow if the mirror was to be on that side. The two photos are taken at the same time also (if I'm not mistaken), so you disproved your second argument with your first I'm pretty sure GT5s lighting is a bit too sophisticated to let things like what you suggested happen.

I've experienced this too in a slightly different situation, whilst drifting. I run softer spring rates on the back so it cocks a front wheel in the air. I took a picture of it, I'll post it in here tomorrow

No it is lifting, I went through the replay a few times (no rewind) watching it and took the pics. It even made a tyre sound when it came back down and on the next couple hairpins it would do it in a repeated fashion skipping in a kind of way making repeated squeaks.

Here is another

The shadow is under the tyre and the tyre is off the ground.

Great, please do.

mini is completely stock? because i am trying it with many setup's and i cant do it. only 106 rallye & s16 do very easy rear wheel lift.

 

[Evolvedsoul]

Yay! Tripods! First thing it reminded me of..

 

[Bopop4]

I want to see this in GT5.

 

[Evolvedsoul]

Thats amazing^^^
I love watching nascars racing on road courses or touring car masters and how soft the cars look when they wallow over curbs.. /notontopic

 

[Bopop4]

They should model chassis bind in for the karts so that you have to set it up to lift the inside rear.

You won't be able to see the lift in normal dry racing but if it is 1mm or so off of the ground it will stop the bind. Of course, 2-Strokes are flatsliding half the time anyways.

You can post these in the thread below lots of shots like this

That thread is for bicycling (from curbs unless there is a serious problem). This thread is about weight jacking induced wheel lift.
