You the man bro!
This really shows how incredibly nuanced the car designs are in this game. Makes it an even bigger shame they won't fix well-known bugs or balance the classes
Or the fact that cars seem to have little mass
or fix widebody kits
@@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X cars have perfectly normal mass values (mostly)
Police interceptor
@@phrodendekia what about the Police Interceptor?
You're a real Treasure Brough, we're lucky to have you. Been loving the vids and streams for a few years now. Much love Man
Thanks for the kind words!
@@broughy1322 👍
👍
@@broughy1322 Agreed. I've been watching Broughy since 2014 and so glad you stuck around. I think you only had like 30k subs at the time :)
X2
you forgot to mention that pink dollar rims add 5mph to the top speed and whitewalls increase traction
Deadass😭?
Chrome paint raises the center of mass due to being almost UFO-like
@@ZerotheWanderer but a lower center of gravity is better, clearly chrome lowers the center of gravity and adds +5 to your car's downforce value
i honestly cant tell if this is a joke or not
@@xonk9691 lmfaooo I can't tell either
wow I didn't know about the mods changing the centre of gravity, very interesting. after playing this game for 6 years still learn new things
yeah, I’m gonna put neons on all my cars now since it lowers the center of gravity and make it more stable 😅 what’s crazy is that it actually makes sense
@@devandrasimanjuntak1646 i mean not really, they're just glass filled with vapors
@@toucan6109 I meant the idea of attaching something to the bottom of your car will lower the CoG. It’s the same idea as to why the ballast in F1 cars and most race cars are placed on the floor.
more window tint = more speed thats all you gotta know
Don't forget the anime liveries
@@huskysharky9025 Equally as important
@@jpatton1945 if not, more
And a big spoiler
But none of that matters if there isn’t a stripe somewhere or it’s not a red car
Once again broughy proving he’s the best gta v KZheadr
Probably one of the best KZheadrs period. He doesn't beg for likes and subscriptions, he organizes everything well and is clear and concise in his presentation of information. We need a Broughy1322 for every topic on KZhead tbh.
@@naveed_ agree %100
When I first saw you talking to fellow community members about setups a few months back or so in streams, I thought you went mental due to what was said in earlier times. Now I completely understand. Glad we have you and other wonderful people within to help us understand things better. Those neons actually doing a thing made my mind blow though. Such a broken yet wonderful thing... Thanks again for this information.
Amazing work again brough. GG. This'll definitely help those who either couldn't find chilli's document or found it too difficult to put into effect. Thanks for simplifying things
great to finally see it all in one video. now onto part 2 about license plate colors, tire sidewall text, window tint and color categories!
you’re a god. this is exactly what i was looking for. i wasn’t sure if modifications affected weight, but i started noticing a lot of minor details regarding the way it’s programmed into the game. for example, a secondary player on a bike seems to drag more and losses turning ability. this cleared everything up for me and i didn’t even have to test it myself. thanks for the clarification. definitely deserving of a sub. keep it up, bro.
Your the reason im still playing that flipping game after 7 years..
Maybe it's just a placebo but damn, those neon lights worked some voodoo magic on my dominator...
while I appreciate a nuanced car system, I can't help but to feel it's silly we don't get this kind of information from the game itself, I mean, at least the bars should've worked, instead, people have to go through the game files and do extensive testing to get results. like, srsly? the NEON BARS affect performance? why isn't there a little marker in the LS Customs menu signaling it? what's next, do carbon pieces also make a difference since they're theoretically lighter? what if we didn't have dedicated people like Broughy to test this stuff out?
The difference with neons wont be anything game changing for most, if you think a car handles well without em, then there's no need
yeah, the smallest of differences that only top level drivers would notice should be mentioned in game. sure.
@@mazder3594 you don't understand. my peeve is that the bars don't work properly and extensive testing is required because of it. Top Speed, for example, IS actually affected by modifications, but the bar doesn't move, all because R* made the stat system busted. me pointing out neon bars is to say things make a difference, but we don't have any sort of indication. why not just add a little text box saying "cosmetic mods may change mass and/or center of gravity"? it's like with the Heavy Utility Vest in the 2015 heists. "conveyance" is the keyword here
@@40088922 that is an awful example. you'd put turbos on for the accel., top speed comes with it. if you're building a competitive car you would put them on, addressing top speed or not.
if you're not a sucker you know one thing: 3 words: style equals speed it doesn't matter if you know all the boosts, doesn't matter if you.... can drive, it doesn't matter if you practice all that matters is that your bodykit looks good, your paintjob looks good.... and your bodykit looks good again
and you gotta have that bling on those whitewall dollar rims
@@mr_obst3077 We need to tell him about the pink colour!
Red is the fastest color! Everything else is just a mistake.
U again
Dang, I actually learned quite a bit! I thought it would be all stuff that I knew already. Thanks man, keep up the good work!
How does this master piece of a info video have so little clicks after this long.. You deserve a lot more attention for your VERY handy Information you can provide to us. The amount of work behind the scenes should never be forgotten.
holy moly, as much as i don't like neons on supercars, i actually might need to do this now...
Tbf the difference in neons is rather minimal. If you think a car handles well without it, then there's no need
@@sharkeatinpizza it depends on the car. I found the Gauntlet Classic Custom much more stable after having rear neons on. But I see no difference in the Krieger with any of the neon options.
As i picked gta online back up again, i've found your videos have been very helpful, clear, and informative. Thanks for being such a great resource!
Fantastic video, brough. The website and spreadsheet are such a helpful resource.
Thank you for answering so many questions I had in a simple, straightforward way. I'm going to be checking out all your videos as well as the website. You are, as your people say, "an absolute legend!"
Thank you for putting all this in one place. There is so much info spread throughout your videos. But there are thousands of videos to sort through. For instance I just now learned that the 'tyres can clip' column got name changed. I was trying to find it a few weeks ago and thought I was crazy when I couldn't find it anywhere.
Holy shit gta is way more in depth than I thought. Im going to have to go change some of my mods on my cars I mainly use for racing lmao. I'm hella glad I found your channel, probably the best educational gta content out there
The amount of time spent and attention to detail is remarkable. Fantastic! As an IT tech and F1 fan, I will be looking at your website.
Question 1: Why am I just now subscribing to him? Question 2: How can someone be so talented to give so much relevant information so clearly in such a short time! This. Is. Excellent. Info!
Nice one broughy, as always quality content! Keep it up!
mister, you are overlooked legend.
It was helpful. I didn't knew about center of mass thing.
i knew the basics of this but wow there is a lot here! its very impressive that you tested all of it
very interesting stuff, even after years of playing GTA and thinking I was pretty knowledgable about the mechanics you never cease to surprise me with new info.
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior this isn't a surprise to most of the racing community. This stuff has been widely known for years thanks to Chilli's research
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior on every car?
I really appreciate the captions. Thank you
This is gonna go viral. Well done broughy :)
Thank you very much Broughy👍🏼
another amazingly informative video, thank you for the tips and info on some of the lesser known alterations that a vehicle modification can cause.
Thank you. Needed this video cause I didn't know what's going on with the bars
It's weird that GTA has a detailed build about cars And you are one of the best that knows everything about vehicles in GTA Thanks for your service
I've been thinking about really testing the cars and comparing them, in particular a car against itself with different customizations to see the effect of changing a visual upgrade to its actual performance... Glad to see you're tackling the subject... I may never get in depth research on it done myself but we'll see I suppose... Nice work
It surprises me that Rockstar never never explained this, I know I'm a little late to the party but thank you so much for this my dude.
dude thank you vfor making this video! Great content. It's the breakdown of cars mechanics in GTA.
I just recently got in to GTA racing. I got used to one set up on my tuners, then I thought I'd change them up (liveries a & wheels) and when I went back to race them, they felt completely different. They were subtle changes, but because I was so used to what i had previously set up, it threw me way off. This all makes sense now.
Respect for all your time and effort put into this, down to the smallest details!
The neon thing blew up my mind, you're the best in what you do. Thanks for your service
Saw you had posted this in the comment replies in your most recent 'Fastest Tuners' video, figured I'd check this one out too, some very interesting stuff there indeed!🤯👍👏
Ey, dude, big respect for you man. Thx for all this.
Bro this is amazing helped me so much!
Omg why didn't I know if this earlier Broughy you're a real one bruh 🙌
This is cool af i had no idea it was this intricate i added hood catchers and the front neon to my calico and it steers almost perfect for me i wasnt crashing like i was before now ik cruising round these corners
Essential wisdom for talented drivers! GG Broughy, and to the racing crews / researchers for all of your work over the years. (and now to keep fingers crossed that Rockstar don't break everything in the next DLC / the re-re-re-release)
Hopefully it's too late to break everything, but knowing R*...
Holy hell I wish I would have known about all this years ago. Especially that detailed tire info sheet linked on your website. I'm finally making some of my RWD cars consistent in the corners.
WOW GREAT CONTENT !!!!!!!!!!! KEEP IT UP MAN WE NEED MORE OF THIS RIGHT HERE!!!
amazing! Great information, i actually didn't know some of this stuff!
These are the videos that brought me to this channel!
I've never knew about the neon thing ... sounds crazy!
Very interesting. I’ve gone from mid fielder to top 4 in recent days. Thanks for all the useful insights.
Thnx broughy
Wow so much work and love in your vids.
You're welcome, thanks for the kind words!
The amount of work you put into all this is astounding! It's pretty unbelievable that the game just leaves all these things unsaid for us to discover. You should be getting a juicy Rockstar paycheck for all your work
Very informational and professional. Thank you.
I've been watching your videos for a while now, an for some reason I now really like gfred. I've downloaded it yesterday, an I've started to run it a few times. I would love to do a gfred with its creator some day. (Not yet though, I'm still practicing an seeing if the routs used are indeed the best routes to take) but hopefully one day I'll get to do a race with you an your crew. Your attitude towards the game are very similar to my own. Nice video here also, a lot was learned today. Now to test out some your advice, especially the neons adding wait to affect handling, just wow, if this is so.
Thanks for this in-depth, no-nonsense video. I've always assumed adding armor adds weight and decreases the car's performance, wow...
This is awesome. Thanks.
Thanks Broughy!
Thank you for this. You are an architect
This video proves that again car testing in GTA goes much further than simply taking it to the airport and assume “everything” after a single straight-line test. Thanks for the upload mate, excellent video as always 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome video. Thanks mate
Wow!!! What a great Tutorial 👍👍👍
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
i dont even play gta i just enjoy watching your videos
thanks dude really appreciate again
Bro u have changed how i customize my whips💯 i am buying cars that were problematic again. For example i had many problems with the banshee 900r cause i threw on the best looking part. I bought it to see if i could apply the center of mass idea and holy shit it handle like a race car🔥🏁 same w several cars i had in the past lol
Great video
*FINALLY* I can't even tell you how long I've been preaching that minor little changes to the car ACTUALLY CHANGE how the car handles!
The spoiler size did more than i expected :o
Well they say you learn something new every day . I had no idea that types of spoiler , front ( and I’m assuming rear bumpers ) plus neon headlights and neon layout made a difference to the centre of mass .. not to mention the use of off road wheels / tyres . Given the level of detail placed into this game , it still defies logic how the performance of some of the more expensive vehicles seems rather disappointing. There again , I’d imagine that the game is still more about the aesthetics than anything else . Been watching a lot of your videos in Lockdown, and must say they are very very impressive . Great content , it sort of blows away a lot of the other videos out there . 👍
Profound, really interesting 👌
Neon lights fumble with CG. MIND. BLOWN.
These are nice 👍
7 years after first playing the game I find out there are more details than I imagined.
Best video of the XXI sec
Very helpful for a noob racer such as me, thanks.
I've been here since shaggy and peecarno in the earlier days. Broughy been doing us a service for a lonnng time
Thank you Broughy1322 for this link!! To my questions for max upgrade recap for me plus the additional tips
I don't even play GTA anymore, and yet here I am watching this lol
People saying "omg this is how nuanced the game is!" and I'm just here like.... "this is how broken the game is"
I would argue both ways frankly. Either way, it’s good to have this info. Would certainly argue for broken when it comes to the neons though like... wtf even lol
I'd say nuanced if the info was available in the game or it was talked about at some point, but I'd consider it broken since it's all wildly unknown, and that a lot of cars only have front bumper mods, or only giant wings, etc.
I wouldn't say broken. Most of the effects have a logical basis in how the physics engine works. What I would say it is bizarre. Why Rockstar went to the effort they did for some things (like the different handling properties of different wheel categories and suspension) when not only is it not referenced in-game at all, but it is also so subtle only top tier drivers will really notice is just baffling
@@Johnny362000 I've absolutely noticed some suspension differences in certain cars that made a big difference, at least to me. The Futo seems to slide more at lowest suspension (which is good for the car), as does the Comet Retro (which is not good for the car). I hated driving the Comet Retro, then one day decided to put the suspension back to stock, and it was so much better.
@123 abc LMFAO the fact that they deliberately coded in different handling characteristics for wheels is amateur?
Thanks!
Thanks for the super thanks! :D
Can't wait for this year's update for this.
Soo many poops... and no boring ones. Thank you man
Thx
Nice, one thing that i've notied it's that with the new wheels (the thicker ones) i've a performance close to the one i'll get with tunner wheels on dry conditions, if it's raining... the cars are a soap pill; and with very happy rear end cars like the Vette Mk1, they've much less grip than with muscle car wheels. For GTA racing facts i come here.
One thing you didn't mention, side skirts are usually detrimental on off road surfaces, they'll get caught in bushes and affect the steering etc. and even drag on the ground and slow you down in some cases
Would love to hear the long version
Quick question; does center of mass also affect grip? For example, if I add rear neon lights, will my rear tires have more grip when taking off?
i'vr allways thought the feltzer with that stupid wing on looked a bit od when driving, who know it was because of the center of mass rockstar keeps surprising me, oh and all of the other things about setup, really had no idea that was a thing
I have no idea why I watch these... I don't even race in GTA online I just play in project homecoming. like always though, impressive Broughy.
Well, this stuff still applies to Project Homecoming
@@Johnny362000 that is true. Although I'm not good enough to worry about distribution of weight at this point in time.
I just re-watched the old advanced setup video a few days ago
doing the lords work
One question ive always had and i feel this video could give us answers... does carbon hoods obviously with how you just explained wont lighten the car or front end but will it move the COM rear or because its a front end modification will it bring the COM forwards?
Wow I put white neons on some of my cars because I was sick of the headlights getting smashed and it gave me the illusion of more visibility, I had no idea I was doing anything to the centre of mass
thanks chili
Holy shit bro I love your work thank you I’ll advertise for your data
