F1RC realistic traction control?

F1RC realistic traction control?

Hi sim racers,

does anyone have any idea, what amount of traction control
in F1RC would simulate best the traction control of real
F1 cars? I tried 50% which seems to be too little. 100%
feels quite dull, but perhaps it is as it is...? You can
push the pedal as much as you will already in the middle
of corners? Can it really be so also in the real F1's?

I understand that they're using a similar sliding scale IRL ;-)
Some drivers prefer to turn the TC down, to help them balance
the car on the throttle; others use more 'aggressive' TC.

When Microsoft programs the controllers, 4 blue screens out of about 20 is
normal :)

if you hit the throttle too early you still run wide, as we have seen a few
times this year already, drivers can still overdrive the cars.

Can you tell me how to get TC in F1RC? Is there a file I can download?
