@Frank Smart Thank you, Frank. I remember you every time I look at this car haha And I remember your models. I am thinking about coming over your side of internet whenever I will try modeling next car, it might be silver or red car. Maybe by the end of this year.
Yes, the speeds were high there, and this track surprisingly clicks in with 50s cars. I drove this car after driving Tyrrell 008 and Nissan R90CK, both INSANELY fast. Obviously the D50 is nowhere near speeds of these much more modern cars, yet it felt just as fast, and just as exciting, maybe even more exciting.
And thank you again.
Maybe there is a Head-Up Display that shows better indications for brake temperatures. I use default HUD still (should try modded HUDs), in one of the displays you can see engine revolutions, engine oil and water temperatures, and brake temperatures for each corner. You still have to know the thermal performance curve of brakes. There is a window at which temperatures are optimal, and also there are low and high points at which brakes loose half of the braking torque. For open wheelers I usually have better brakes cooling, and they are also lighter cars so brakes fade is less of an issue, but if you would try you could make it happen. For these cars some brake fade is almost a good thing, as it means at times you can forget about trail braking
I wish there was a way to simulate brakes nuances better, such as pads knock-off with discs, or self-servo effect with drums. It would be very interesting, and would spice things up, and would also make a lot of people upset haha
I have bad memories regarding the brake fade, because certain group of people confronted me with campaign basically against fade happening, as they needed their Ferrari 375 plus to win against Jaguar Dtype, and the schedule was full of tracks where brakes heat management was very important.
