Will online assists always be allowed - right now many "newbie" assist are allowed when racing on the new online servers. Are you considering a more realistic approach where only clutch is allowed?
This is a topic also getting much discussion on the LMU servers. Seems it is an easy way to shave seconds off laps times. Definitely needs to be limited in some form.
Assist penalties is not the good way ... Someone tested it on LMU, and got 4 or 5 Gs of deceleration. Which is way too high on capability for any car/tyre. Assists must just be adjusted to help but not give an unfair advantage. A good/average driver must be able to make better times withouy any help, than the ones with assists, and not only the pros or the aliens.
I am presuming this refers to LMU? I have asked in separate post if assists are allowed on RF2 Race control
