Steering in N4 WITHOUT driving wheel.

Can any of you help me with this? I use a keyboard, and I cannot stear left
or right, no matter what setup I use. The keys are assigned and all that,
but I cannot get the car to actually, gasp, turn left when playing Daytona.
I run straight into the walls.  I mean, I can turn left, but only effectivly
at 60 mph. Is there ANY cure? A cure, that is, that does NOT involve
"Getting a driving wheel".

To be honest with you, even if you figure out how to make it work (steering
sensitivity, linear settings maybe..) I do not see how you will be actually
able to drive the car.

N4 takes very precise controls compared to earlier games.

Getting a joystick

Heck, you can get a 5-dollar cheap joystick and it would be much better for
you.

At least get a joystick!!! I can't understand why people would want to
play a sim with a keyboard. It's never going to be enjoyable just with a
keyboard.
