The ins and outs of traction control. A general use tactical guide for GT Sport that also applies to some other racing games, sims, and vehicle control systems.

Keep up the great work on these videos, greatly appreciated

Very informative, with the information in this video I was able to shave off 1sec off my lap time on the first try! I look forward to other training videos. Thank you! 🤘✌

Thank you soo much all your work. You deserve so many more subs and the fact that you subtitled it helped my deaf friend so much.
Cheers from NYC!

Gran Turismo is the best races for me. I have a series of videos on the YT channel from races on ps5🏁🙂🏁

Good stuff.

Thanks for sharing. You touched slightly on the subject of TC and tyre wear. Does TC being turned on help with tyre wear? In reality it would, but I'm just wondering if you have any insight on GTS reacts to it?

[@little_regret]

I think GTS is probably a bit less sensitive to that; if you’re really killing the tires especially on corner exit traction control will be helpful but it’s not going to be a significant amount different between TC on/off if you don’t have too much wheel-spin in both cases.

[@Tintoycar]

Do you gain speed in a straight line when TCS is 0 instead of 5?

[@little_regret]

Tintoycar That’s a decent question and the answer is [mostly] no. The car’s acceleration should be the same unless there is not enough grip.
Someone with good experience on the game can launch (from a dead stop) just as fast without TC but it’s generally quicker and safer to launch with TC for most drivers.

[@freedom_born]

I could change TCS on the fly. Why is that not allowed anymore ??

[@little_regret]

It should still be allowed, but that really depends on whether or not the lobby you are in allows it. If the MFD display shows “Off” in the center as opposed to a number, it means the lobby or race session has disallowed it.

@Littleregret265.
I just realised I had the "Up" assigned as 'overtake' in settings. Dumbass mistake

[@ronaldgrey4458]

WHY ?? Why does there have to be annoying irritating music in the background ?! If I want to listen to music I’ll turn to iTunes or the radio.
