Very interesting thread! Thanks for all the detailed opinions guys.
I haven't looked into it that much and this is what I do sofar;
I like my brake balance as much to the rear as possible.
I learned that in GPL because there , overcoming the huge default understeer could, among others, be overcome by changing the brake balance to the rear. Many cars I run at 50& there.
In GTL the variety of cars is much bigger of course and my first love was and perhaps still is the 911 (yeah yeah Cas we know, geeez!)
In that car, because it's so twitchy I use the brakes a LOT for turning and also to use the chosen suspension setup to the max.
Heavy front braking gives a lot of stopping power for hairpins and such, I understand that, but still, I like to use the last part of braking in the first stage of steering, even for hairpins (Oulton Park)
It's a habit from GPL I think but I like it.
I understand better and better now when I went overboard and the brake bias is to much to the rear and I also have to look into what Dion says. Most of the time I have my left foot ready or lightly on the brakes to correct mistakes in a corner and though I also use throttle AND brake in corners there's a lot to be learned for me there.
I have never changed brake bias while driving and also wondered what that would bring but now I understand, so thanks.
I don't even know how to do it, haha, will find it though.
Changing it every part of a lap is a bit much for my nerves I think but I will definitely look into it, so thanks for that too!
Caspar.
