Brett, check out The APEX web site http://www.racesimcentral.net/~joja/
I talk about setting up your steering for the T2 Wheel. There are also some
setups on the page which make a huge difference in how the car feels.
If you are still having problems E-Mail me and I'll see if I can help you
out.

Thanks
John

My bet is that the Cyrix chip is the source of your disappointment.
Perhaps CART is using a lot more FPU than the other games you play.
