Thanks

Of course, one way to solve this problem is to alter your OWN setups so that
you have to brake earlier... e.g. by putting your brake balance way forward.
I'm pretty certain that it's possible to totally match the
computer cars' performances with your car, using WCF1GP.EXE and F1ED.EXE,
together with altering your own setups.
So it's not a problem, really.

You should be able to create computer cars that's kick your ***in every
respect, not just horsepower.

In my experience, it doesn't have quite enough effect, though. In order to get the computer
cars braking late enough, their grip is so great everywhere else that they're much
quicker than you all over the rest of the course- so the only way to match BOTH
braking distances AND cornering speeds is to increase your own braking distances.
I think!

I have known this for almost a year, but not thought it to be a bug - but
I guess it is not the way it should be. I ride a motorbike, and all
heavy braking is done with the front due to wait transfer (the back
brake is useless when the rear whell is in the air :)

BTW, I did have someone elses opinions, but I lost them :( So these are
