Cool

I've noticed much better traction performance when playing around with the LSD settings. It makes a big difference in the way your car handles cornners and can give you the advantage over other cars.
Just read the explaination that scrolls by in settings. And then play around with it.
For race cars, I always raise the Init Torgue several clicks. (around 20)
Then raise the Accel several clicks (around 47, 48)
Then lower the Decel (around 15 - 20)
This all depends on where your default settings were but U get the idea.
The affect is apparent when you can start to break hard (early) into your cornner, let off the break and the wheels grab (giving U more traction) and the car is still kinda just rolling turn the wheels and punch out of the cornner and again getting more torgue on the accel side with more traction. Usually I'll double tap the X button to compensate or counter the understeer that is prevalent in most of the GT3 cars.
i.e. you get into the cornner quicker and leave it quicker, which will improve your lap times and ability to overtake in cornners.
Practice this a bit and you'll be able to whip around those cornners you used to curse at. :thumbsup:
