Steering unresponsive and unable to reverse

Several times I have been unable to steer the car making it crash or unable to enter a drift because the steering doesn't seem to be responding or hardly at all.

The same is true for reversing, sometimes it just doesn't work. The brake lights come on and it just sits there or the reverse lights come on and it just sits there. This got me busted for the first time last night 😠

  • I had the same issue's didn't notice the reverse issue, but steering and general handling of the car itself was obnoxious.

    I purposely circled the same spot so i could travel at same speeds doing the same moves, to give a genuine impression of consistency.

    So people could see what the car was and was NOT doing when it should and should not of been, from trying to create its own slide on a straight road

    to being high speed and not kicking the back end on a bend (when it clearly should have).

  • Still no response to this issue that several others have been reporting?

    Suberu BRZ minor upgrades such as  super charger poss stage 2, ARB stage 2, rear wing, Sports final stage Tyre compound as i wanted traction but not to much that it was pure race grip.

    Not completed a whole lot of races due to the fact the car is pretty much undrivable, the most noticeable is when drifting i have turned off auto enable drift so it shouldnt try to automatically initiate a drift (but it still does anyway) just suddenly gets loose for no reason. Brakes have been moved from front to a partial front to stop brake locking and sliding of the back end,

    I have a medium handbrake set up enough torque to let you know you have an E brake, but not so powerful it spits you into a 180.

    The steering is god awful i dont even know how to explain what it even does, but it go's from normal steering to really sharp turn in to sluggish slow turn in to no turn at all leaving you nose diving the wall that pretty much sums up the fact of why its unplayable your constantly fighting the car as opposed to fighting for a better spot in the race.

    P.S it is indeed an intentional rear wheel drive drift machine, in case you were in any doubts

    here is an example of the reverse issue: https://youtu.be/6yDrEB-YHMY

    You can see my brake lights are on and my speed is 0 but no revervse for a few seconds. This is a mild case, the other day when I got busted it wouldn't reverse for around 9 or 10 seconds.

    I will try and get more videos for you. My main car is a Focus RS with the following:

    E Air Filter
    E Cooling System
    E Intake Manifold
    E Fuel System
    E Forced Induction
    E Electric System
    E Ignition
    E ECU
    R Engine Block
    E Cam Shaft
    E Cylinder Heads
    R Exhaust Manifold
    E Exhaust System
    E Clutch
    E Nitrous System
    E Suspension
    E Differential
    E Drift Tires
    E Brakes
    E Handbrake
    E Sway Bars

    However, the reverse and steering issues happen with every car I've tried so far (Subaru BRZ, Nikais Porchse, Aventador and the RS).
