Problem with gas pedal on Nascar2

        I know I asked about this before and was able to fix my system
but since then I had to replace my disk drive and reload Nascar2.  I have
the Thrustmaster steering wheel and pedals and the problem I am again having
is that when I start a race my gas pedal doesn't give me full gas.  It
starts out slow and I get left by the field.  I have tried resetting my
gas pedal several times but get the same results.  What recomendations do
people have on getting my pedal to once again work at full power.

                                Thanks and Gday

I find the same prob on my CH Pro Pedals if I use the full range when
calibrate. What works on my pedals is to stop about an inch up from
the bottom when I cycle it for calibration range. Seems to make it
think full pedal is about an inch up so when I floor it it registers
as wide open. Brakes I cal to about 1/2 inch from bottom so get
slightly softer braking without locking wheels up and spinning.

Hope it helps.

Problem with gas pedal on Nascar2

I've had the same problem with my home built wheel/pedal unit from time to time. To fix the problem I recalibrate the unit, but when setting the accelerator I do not press the pedal all the way to the floor.

If this doesn't work and your trouble is only on the starts double-check you setting for 1st gear.
