I can't figure out how to adjust the controller settings to correct a steeering
problem that happens at high speeds. I use a T2 wheel and whenever I reach a
high speed  the car is impossible to control and starts to swerve. It also
seems to delay in responding to any attempt I make to correct the direction of
the car. It's driving me crazy. Any thoughts? Thanks.

  Sounds like a deadzone setting is too large.  Bascially you have an
area in the middle of your wheel's travel that is not read,  this is to
avoid little movements of the wheel from sending you wobbling all over
at slow speeds, but it could be at high speeds the small gap with no
movement is tricking you into over-correcting.  Check and see if you can
adjust the deadzone in the sim, or possibly try and find a program that
adjusts the deadzone...(I think CTFJ will do that..not 100% sure tho)
CTFJ used to be available at the thrustmaster website, but I don't know
if it still is since Guillemot bought TM

Go to your "Advanced Control Method" window in the game and play with your
"Steering " settings, mainly the "Reduce with Speed"  and "Low Sensitivity"
settings.  Try starting with 65% and 85% respectively to start with.  Check pages
12-14 in the manual.  Paul
