FWD racing is inconsistent between sim racing titles.

The TCR Civic in iRacing drives a lot like my irl time attack Integra. It’s the closest I’ve found in any title so far.

IRL car: Mechanical grip is setup to be stupid loose with major aero to keep it nailed down for faster stuff like sweepers where throttle isn’t enough to pull it straight.

The Civic in iRacing is pretty close. It cooks tires like it should whenever asking for too much for too long, pushes hard whenever throttle application is greedy and steers with the brake pedal. Can’t ask for more, I love driving that thing.

The MINI Challenge car in AMS2 is…ok I guess. Brake pedal doesn’t really do the weight transfer and rotation it should for such a weight/wheelbase and doesn’t push very hard on throttle considering the massive low down torque they produce. Rear tire temps and grip makes sense to me but no amount of amateurish overdriving is able to cook the front tires.
