Noob question about brake balance

,

When i set a cars brake balance, is it more important to get the lowest brake distance on the telemetry or is turn in feel the priority?

If u use abs, setting brakes for lowest brake distance in tuning menu telemetry seems to work.

Generally best performance will be moving the bias until it begins to understeer under braking and then move it one tic back.

When tou say move it back do you mean rearward ?

Cars is this game like rear brake bias I usually run 49-45% depending on car with abs on, and since with abs off cars are more undesteery, guess then u need to move brake bias even more to rear

What way I do it 48-47. Pressure is preference. if the car still locks up the front easy start moving the front anti-drive up. Most of the time I run in between 25-80 on the front anti-drive.

The more i learn about tubing the more i realize knowing just a few things won’t help much and you really gotta know everything. Wish there was like a guide in game.

I read the descriptions but it’s really in one ear and out the other. Sometimes ill just try things i see people see on this forum.

Like right now I’m using the 2017 NSX for the R open class Nd i read to make the differential 100%and 0%. Is great for low speed turns but ive noticed high speed turns its really easy to slide. Only assist in use is ABS

Theres so.e good tuning guides online via site or YouTube tutorials

Every one I’ve found on YouTube is multiple hours. Idk if theres simpler ones. Idk. Im easily overwhelmed by stuff like this haha.

Thanks for all the replies so far though

There was another post about general tuning that i weighed in on last year. Ive altered my tuning a bit since then but the general practices are still pretty solid

Very nice info. One question i have when it comes to setups is this.

Will there be big differences between setups between road cars, GT cars , prototype cars, and the open wheel cars(old f1 and 90s?). Or will the ideal settings be similar.

I ask because I’ve set tire pressure to the usual 2.1-2.2 BAR presure on f1 and prototype cars but it makes them almost unusable. Are there other settings that’ll be different like that?

The lighter the vehicle generally the lower you want your psi to be.

For front higher psi will be quicker turn in and lower will be a slower turn in. Rear psi lower will help the vehicle rotate through the corner and increase if youre having it ratate too much.

You can also do this with the rims. Larger on front will create a faster turn in, larger rear will make it rotate less throughout the corner

That might explain why all the hypercar EVs have high default tire pressure. Heavy SOBs.
