Well, sadly, I was under the illusion that no assists is the fastest.. Then Average Jo figured out what the top guys do in this week's WTTT.. They almost certainly use Steering Assist, and so i tried it on Richmond (low setting) and almost immediately had 0.2sec improvement (while also racing leaders ghost).. Then trying again with no SA, I couldn't come close..

Jo says he used this setting on other tracks also, with great success.. He is a great driver anyways, but this has given him an extra edge.. Which I am sure most top dogs in the WTTT use.

I have also started to wonder if they perhaps switch on some assists mid race.. For example Monza the last two tough sections, to pause the game on the long straights, turning assists on to take a corner, pausing again to switch them off after.. There some Steering or Traction assists might be a big plus as they are super fast sections..

I am pretty astounded by this revelation, and cannot believe Monkeys have allowed this:(
