Yeah, I'm not "getting" this track either. After posting some fairly competitive midfield times the past two races I'm way off here. managing only 1.42.0 in falcon and a bit slower than that in an Alfa. What's the secret?

Secret? Sounds pretty good to me. I managed 1:46 in the Alfa (H-pattern + manual clutch virgin).

Did any of you have had any problems with a wheel? I tried to do some practice laps and... no response from the wheel (=Logitec Momo). Logged on to another server and no problem there.. Back to the Pratice server and again.. nothing Maybe I doing something stupid but if anybody had the same problems and could solve it, I would really like to hear it... Thanks.

Goto options -> controller settings, and turn off "reversed effect" and then turn it on again. All in game. Should work then I think.

1:37s!!! Geesh, I thought I was going well by getting down to 1:41.6 in the Cortina. Ok it's on my brand new G25 with H-pattern and manual clutch, so it can probably go faster as I learn the new wheel more, but not 4 seconds faster!!!! Geeesh!

By default in on and off-line modes the car is auto-righted by the game which is why it's hard to topple over and when you do you always get back on your roof.

Well, Ruskus, I officially like your setup . I got a 1.39.4 after just 8 laps with it.

After posting some fairly competitive midfield times the past two races I'm way off here. managing only 1.42.0 in falcon and a bit slower than that in an Alfa. What's the secret? It's weird, you either get it or you don't and it seems to make a huge difference, some of us well above 1:40, but if you find the groove like Jeff well under it. I reckon there must be something to be gained from better exit speeds from the long left-hander (T3) and the double-right hander 3/4 of the way round. What's the secret of Jeff's setup, more controllable drifting? Oh well, enjoy bouncing off the kerbs like Pseudo if you can't get it right, looks good
