    Hi. I'm sorry if this has been raised, or if I've posted in the wrong section. I tried to search the topic.

    I haven't yet tested the other cars

    In the Super V8, it appears that when the brakes are biased to the front in some way, it has no affect on the cars behaviour when the car is in a turn under brakes and it continues to travel straight ahead, even if they tyres haven't locked up.

    When using the external camera view, I can see the correct front or back wheels slowing or locking up under brakes, but the cars physics behave as if both the front and rear are braking at the same time and starts to travel straight ahead, even with 100% front bias, where usually the car would start to rotate into the turn at some point during the braking pressure (imho)

    Is anyone else seeing the behaviour?

    Welcome to the forum!

    This reminds me of a discussion a few days ago in the main Physics Discussion Thread. The discussion started with a reference to a video about why cars don't seem to turn in as much during heavy braking in AMS2 versus in AMS1:

    The discussion goes through a handful of posts by different people, and the answer that was the most helpful to me was the second half of this comment:

    Now, it could be that the issue you bring up is different than this phenomenon, but hopefully this helps to steer you in the right direction.
