You get so many more points with no assists, i cant drive anything with abs or tc on now i find its got no power and you cant whip the tail out every now and again!

My R8 is about 800bhp and can just about keep it in check with 4wd, it still likes to slide off everywhere but it properly sticks like s**t!. And as for braking you need to just get used to the trigger and not getting too heavy on it
