The Camaro's brakes are awful in GSC, not realistic at all.
In what sense?...also, what controller do you use?
If you set the brake pressure to 100%, you can just about lock the tires in a straight line and very easily lock the inside under braking/entry.
A huge, heavy, front engined car on "regular" street tires will struggle to pull more than 1 or 1.1G under braking, but that still is more than most 'shopping' cars can do. Compared to the other cars in the sim, which are lighter, have less weight transfer and better tires, the Camaro doesn't seem to brake, but its actually pretty good for its size and weight.
At some point brakes can overheat a bit and cause some fade but the effect isn't huge.
Its the Titanic of the sim though, so you can't expect it to perform miracles when you push the middle pedal.
I haven't had any issues with the brakes either, I've driven a stock camaro and a dodge challenger rt in real life and I can vouch that they are big heavy land boats that handle like crap feels like a sponge, and the brakes on them are less than impressive, but that's just feedback from an audi s4 driver who has to peel his face off the window with the slightest tap of the brakes lol
Not sure if the gsc camaro is the z model or base? I would assume Chevy would use big brakes and better rubber on the higher models
Heya again,
I'm afraid you're right
I had a look. We must've changed the brake temperature curve as we were updating the race brakes.. They are too temperature sensitive, mainly in low temp lack of bite. Street pads/discs work pretty well cold of course, and the rears take a while to heat up so they don't do as much as they should. By the time they get working, the fronts might be close to fading.
The *tires* are capable of 155ft stopping distance from 70mph. Car and Driver measured 162 foot on the 2010 Camaro SS so the tires and a good ABS system would probably be pretty ok. This is just a notch over 1G average brake G force.
Its pretty likely we'll improve the brake temperature and ABS system so that with ABS and nice 230kpa warm tires and cool/warm brakes you do about 160ft on a flat road. Right now it initially struggles to go over 0.85G cold which isn't right.
Thanks for umm complaining
Sorry, the newer Camaro's/Mustangs as not boats. I drive a 1 series BMW myself but have driven old (60's) and newer (2010-2013) Camaro's and Mustangs.I haven't had any issues with the brakes either, I've driven a stock camaro and a dodge challenger rt in real life and I can vouch that they are big heavy land boats that handle like crap feels like a sponge, and the brakes on them are less than impressive, but that's just feedback from an audi s4 driver who has to peel his face off the window with the slightest tap of the brakes lol

Niels, any idea when this might be patched or updated?
