Just to inform you guys, Race Anywhere have recently narrowed the range of items that are eligible for the 5% discount, now mainly applicable to Pro Sim Rig and Race Anywhere branded items (rig components). Sadly, this means the example shown in the video (5% off a simucube base) is no longer possible. It's a shame and I can see why it's no longer possible, but I have to let you know so you don't feel as if I'm misleading viewers and baiting people with a deal that can no longer be got. What third parties do with their discount programs is totally out of my hands and all I can do is inform you of the change. Thanks for your understanding...

Additional point: Brake bias also affects tire temperature and therefore overall grip of that tire - more temperature means less grip. For T1 at spa for example you want a more forward bias to not heat up the rears to give you maximum grip for accelerating up the next long straight.

Too much heat, not more temperature (temperature is just a measurement), and not enough heat can both hinder a tire's performance.

I agree

Bits missed: 1) in sims that simulate rain, the more wet>the less grip>the less mass transfer - more rearwards/closer to 50/50 bias optimal 2) if one is to heat brakes with brake dragging during formation lap, as there is no mass transfer, again, move brake bias to rear to not overheat fronts/for more even heat up (NOT forgetting to move it back to normal prior start)

This was the absolute best video explaining brake bias! Excellent examples and a clear and precise explanation. Thank you so much! Awesome video!

Even though I always had a rough idea of what brake bias is, now I really understand how to use it and when to increase or decrease it... thank you for the video, very helpful and well explained

I love this channel! Thank you so much! Keep releasing content. There way you explain things is great and you don’t put weird vocal effects or pronunciation to sound more “professional” thank you for being you.

Brilliant video! Simply explained and really informative. Probably the best I’ve seen. This is going to make a big difference to the way I drive on track. Thanks, keep up the great work.

Thanks, really great, clear and concise guide. One point I would add is that over longer races, depending on the car you might be shifting the brake bias over the duration of a stint, as the car gets lighter on fuel. Depending on where the fuel tank sits, the front or the rear of the car might get lighter so you may slowly shift bias away from that side as the car gets lighter, to preserve similar behaviour.

Great coverage of the most important topic in racing. Here is another tip. During a long race for tracks like Spa or Fuji turn 1, where you have a heavy brake into a hairpin followed by a long straight where corner exit is so important and cars without TC like PCup or formula cars. Moving the Bias forward just for this turn to keep the rear tires cool can help you get better traction getting back on throttle. It is another tool for the tool box when solving problems on track during a race. Managing tire temps through Brake Bias is yet another dimension of choosing the best balance between safety, rotation during cornering and traction on exit.

The only video one will ever need about brake bias. Amazing job, mate!

Incredible video. Never thought I'd be able to understand the more advanced mechanics but it's so simple. Cheers

Super informative video, mate. I'm always struggling with brake bias. Hopefully now I'll get it dialed in better 👍

Every video you make is absolutely amazing. This one is no different. Thanks so much for these!

Great video! Thank you! I 've been challenging myself to vary Brake Bias before watching this video, but was overdoing it. Like going 4 or 5 % from my starting bias, usually reducing the front til I got the spins. Then I would gingerly and slowly start to increase it. I learned from your video. Single percent up or down. This will, I think, help with my consistency. Thanks agai!

What an excellent job you have done with this video. Thank you. The work you put into the screenshots of the cars performing the way you’re describing is outstanding!

I have been watching a lot of video on BB and whenever I thought I understood it, it escapes me. With your video however, it all fell in place. Something about your structure made it very simple.

Oem cars are always heavily front biased and you generally want front bias anyway as your fronts will always have more grip on brakes so easier to lock the rears. I'm surprised anywhere near 5050 is drivable but I've never used iracing. But most cars in ac (and actually all other sims/games i play) I end up between 65-75 front usually.

Brilliant. Thanks for that video man. Great help 👍🏻🥃🥃🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🏁🏁🏁🏁

Thx man, i always tought i felt understear, while trail braking... it was just too much weight in front while braking

I remember months back we had a race A at Monza in the McLaren P1, that race was pure carnage. Then once again we had the Honda RA272 at Monza as well. Both races were absolute carnage but fun

If I bring it down just 1%, I can probably improve a bit more. I've gotten over a second faster on most tracks in the last year just trying to break bad habits and use every bit of track available, and this will definitely be a new tool in the arsenal

This is a great video. Well put together. Ty

A great video Danny. It took me a while to understand the difference brake bias makes to the handing and braking. I probably don't use it as much as I should to be honest.

Brake Bias was something I thought I should change once in a lap and that was it, and that it wasn't something that important. After I started thinking about how I could make my car brake better or more stable during specific corners I soon realized how much it meant for lap times. I improved significantly after doing so. For example, in Spa, at the first corner and the last chicane I needed to have higher front bias in order to help the car brake better but have less of it for other corners because I needed the car to rotate and not stop as much. That alone made me shave about a second off a lap

I've been play GT sport and now 7 for thousands of hours. I use BB for a few situations. You covered them well. Even showed demonstrations. Thank you for your help. But I've scoured the internet for someone ( A pro) to confirm and or have so much time in that they've found this little trick....and you DO NOT mention it either. So in the RAIN. Put BB All the way Foward to the fronts and you will stop without slides ...full pedal. So far I kill it in the rain just because of my braking technique. I challenge you to try...and tell me what you think. If it's food enough.....maybe a how to vid? Thanks

So much time can be had purely because of braking. Im been learing to "feel" car alot more and looking at BB to aid that learning curve. My general race craft and pace is quite good but my braking leaves alot to be desired. What I also tend to do is if the brake zone is going up a hill, I will set my BB forward by 1-2 and going downhill I set it to the rear by 1-2. Going up or down in a brake zone already has the weight shifted to that orientation and the BB helps neutralize that already shifted weight.

Excellent video. I finally get it now.
