Why Brake Bias Is Important | Tutorial Tuesday

[@RockafellaRacing]

The number one reason Sim Racers get confused on in ACC is which way is forward & which is rear because it’s not explained in game

[@knightrida6829]

Excellent with new gt7 settings I've always kept neutral, i will give your recommendations a try

[@SimracingPopometer]

seems like these videos are supposed to make you deliberately suffer so you need track titan to fix your driving afterwards. well done :D

[@CardNox]

Yeah, it's pretty silly to be honest. If only there was a channel who properly explains stuff like this... 😉

[@RRT_NightShifter1]

Excellent video. Unfortunately, Track Titan doesn't support console. I've signed up previously, but am unable to utilise it..

[@heelandtoeknee]

Thanks a lot, that was helpful. 👍 I have the brake bias mapped to my wheel but never used it. 😂 it’s about time…!

[@kristaps2010]

quality. explained the way I understand!

[@CardNox]

Could have discussed how to use brake bias in the wet. But honestly.. I don't think the advice given here is correct... Moving BB to the front doesn't give you more stopping power, it's actually the opposite in more cases. The BB is normally pretty far forward so the front lock up instead of the rears since that's a safer feeling for most, although it's slower. A good tip would be to turn of ABS, stamp on the brake and don't give steering inputs and see which axle locks up first. Try to have them locking up at almost the same time, that will. Give you maximum stopping power...

[@kristaps2010]

thank you will test without abs for bb setup

I asked an esports pro that is coaching me and he said the same thing you did: moving the brake bias forward will lengthen the braking distance while moving it back will shorten it (up to the point of lockup). He said you want it as far back as will allow for a safe corner entry.

[@CardNox]

@@marcusmiller8267, he is correct. The further rearwards the brake bias the more eagerly the car will rotate und braking. Having it to far back will cause turnin oversteer, so when the car is doing that move it forward a bit.

[@3dmagix]

​@@marcusmiller8267So isn't this exactly what the video is saying? Front bias increases ABS activity, which in turn increases the stopping distance.

[@basstradamus1]

How can you check when the front and back wheel is locking?

[@niltonjunior2081]

Rear/front driving matters to brake bias?

[@giogamer4825]

I started with the Porsche 992 car in ACC, but damnn that one is difficult to control!! Any tips?

[@vanra101]

So helpful!

[@idventure6036]

Bathurst really needs different brake bias for different corners. I wish that you could set a specific BB with different buttons in ACC. Pushing up and down is to small increment so it is easy to get it wrong as you need to look away for to long.

[@kristaps2010]

exactly what I need. buttons mappable for bb on console.

[@RetroDillon]

It has this already, mappable buttons in the settings menu, TCS for me is left and right, Brake Bias can be set to up and down

[@LuxKeiwoker]

changing the break bias on the formula 2.5 wheel in ACC is pretty annoying as it is only changing by 0.2 % increments. You need to turn the thumb-wheels quite a lot for even changing the bios only by a 1% or two

[@racing-yiyang]

cool

[@szpaku325]

Guys, this tutorial is 100% wrong with such basic stuff like brake bias. Moving forward BB doesn't shorten your braking distance but it does completely opposite. Always try to use brake bias as low as possible for you.

[@marcusmiller8267]

Yes! Cardnox above said the same thing. I was confused and asked an esports pro that is coaching me and he agrees with you guys.

[@BNJ_VODS]

Bad info. Closer to 50/50 brake bias allows all 4 tires to use their grip, producing greater stopping force and shorter stopping distances. What kind of nonsense is "shifting the bias forwards gives more braking/shifting it back gives less braking"? That's nonsense

[@zol_369]

Brakes are always a lot larger on the front though so more stopping power through the fronts

[@3dmagix]

During braking the weight shifts to the front so the front brakes need to do more work.

[@FG_SIMRACING]

This vid is 100% the other way around. 💀
