Default I have a few GT3 Questions...

1. Can I turn off the stability assist and TC because when i go into options and turn them off, they are still working when i go race, what's with that?

2. Is there a way to turn the tire wear off in the amateur, professional, etc modes?
Thanx for any help..

I think you can set those to zero in the settings screen before a race or machine test.

Yes, I agree. I love to drive it like I was really the one racing. I try hard not to bump the other cars, hit the walls, spin out.... but I love fishtailing outta tight turns... it looks so pretty in the replays ...

But yeah, I like the feeling of tailgaiting an opponent through a turn, and then just mashing on the gas and passing him on the straightaway rather than just bumping the hell outta him during the turn to pass his ass up.

Unfortunately some brainiac decided to remove the collision damage the had in GT2 when making GT3 which would really penalize you when you collided against something.

Now there's only tire-wear... somewhat dissapointing for a "driving simulator".

I do this too, but why do claim that its far from real driving? you mean you dont push people to the outside to avoid hitting the rail to slow people down? =)

I wonder if you ever played with it on whitey. Not visable collision damage but collision damage nontheless.

example: hit a wall at high speed and your car would be crippled pulling to the left (or right depending on the side of collision). Repairs would be made only when you did a pit stop, more often than not it would result in misalignment of steering and uneven tire wear.
