Brake problem (With Traction Control)
I have a automation car that has AWD; a lot of power and brakes that heat VERY quickly.
When i was on the xenon highway (glowcity) i've seen on banked tun that the TC stressed a lot the front right brake. (caused me to crash because the brake died on the right side on not on the left.)
When i disable the TC the problem is gone. It do the same on other cars but it is not as falgrant because these car don't have brake fade. I suppose that the TC sould not behave like that and that why i report this bug.

The main issue could be specific to your Automation build, nothing much we can check there.

Please provide a video or similar, showing what you are doing.
It is normal that ESC will overheat the brakes, if it's being triggered aggressively. It is braking the wheels to avoid loss of control.

Of course. Here is a footage:

AGAIN sorry for my incomprehensible english; i'm a french guy.:steamsad:
What i say in in the video is that the tc/esc do thing that make my car turning to the right but i want to turn in the other direction. Is the esc trying to keep me from turning?

Seems fine to me.
You are turning too much, causing the car to go in understeering.
The ESC is correcting by breaking the relevant wheels, which is heating up the brake.

I cannot really see well from the video, but it seems you are using the 'Normal ESC' mode (green indicator) which is meant for normal driving, not racing. For that course you should have switched to Sport (less aggressive ESC) or turn it off completely.
