@AshesKitty & TDU2 players:

I think "Hardcore" assistance mode might be WAY too loose of a setting for some players - making it way too easy to spin-out; and way to easy lose control.
"Sports" assistance mode seems to play more similar to say NFS series & Burnout series (at their default settings, if you change nothing on those games).
It's the setting I've been using for TDU2.
