Hyper car FFB and braking

Under hard breaking I find issue with the FFB in some hyper cars. In particular the Cadillac.
  • It's difficult feel the car loading up , or approaching total loss of traction under heavy breaking. Some cars are way better/worse
  • It gets harder to fell the subtleties of breaking the closer I get to the grip limit. Initial braking = really good, Harder on the pedal = ok, close to the edge = not good
  • I find that I can remember the limit but I don't really feel it in the FFB.
  • when I do lock up a tire, the only way I can tell what tire locked up is by the HUD tire temp. I wonder... was that the front or the rears that put me in a spin?
  • The GTE and GT3 cars are good.

Some of the hyper cars are better and some are worse. Various setups make it better/worse. I'm on a moza R12 btw.
 
I find that the position is eased hugely by reducing the braking effort in the setup for the car. So I run a Hypercar or GTE at around 90% and have gone as low as 75%. With their ABS, the GT3s are very different. Generally, if you're not forced to use fixed setups (online), try the Coach Dave setups, I've grown to like them more and more.
