Cant really turn the AYC off on my Evo but im learning.

Theres a couple of round-abouts that ive been practicing on. Getting a little better. After my most recent outting at the Ring I fell better driving the car. Still not as good as I would like but getting better.

you probably can't turn off AYC either in the game, but I know you can turn off ABS and other driving aids...

a bit off topic, I saw your post that you rebedded your brakes...did it work out for you? Were they mildly used before you decided to rebed it again? I think I need to rebed mine but I don't know if it'll work, I've been mildly using mine on the street for 2 months now.

My pads/rotors were a year old before I rebedded them. During high speed braking the whole car would shake like I had warped rotors but that wasnt the case. Rebedded the pads and everything worked flawlessly.

just remember it kinda makes things worse when you unweight the rears and the rear is already loose. i believe it's been termed that you have to drive awd and cars like the mr2 "brave" because of this characteristic is so pronounced. instead of letting off, have your left foot hovering over the brake and just give a very mild input, you'll notice a prefereable rotation with this also, not a scary one.
