F1RS: Stupid question about most realistic config

by Mark Wilson and Ginny Ta » Tue, 14 Apr 1998 04:00:00

Hi all,

Have been playing F1RS on Pro setting and thinking i was doing well until i
tried turning off all the driver aids except the automatic gearbox.  Then
the car behaves completely differently- esp locking up the brakes all the
time!

Just to clarify for my own benefit - do the real F1's have ABS brakes?  I
can live with all the other aids off but without the ABS i'm running 22nd by
a country mile all the time!

Thanks for any replies,

Mark Wilson

F1 cars don't have ABS! Try setting sensitivity of gas/brake pedals to
100%.
After doing that I (almost) never lock up the brakes anymore...

He meant the ABS option in F1RS...

No, he asked, and I quote: do the real F1's have ABS brakes? And I
answered:
No, they don't. So, what's your point?
