    I meant like how long were you running for to cause it? We’re you running gas/brakes together to test? Did it happen just normal use?

    Does this happen all the time or just after you’ve been running for a while? I ask this because I’m one of those suffering from extra sensitive brakes and this is almost situation normal for me.

    I got this every time on the v10 formula car after 2 or 3 laps when I had mechanical failures on. Not doing anything out of the ordinary, no lock ups or anything. I just assumed mechanical failures wasn't properly implemented yet.

    Most cars seem to have the brake balance set too far forwards leading to high front tyre wear and over heating front brakes. Try setting the brake balance further back.

    You can also increase the cooling of the brakes from setup
