It never screwed up Heat :)

It can be done.  They just won't do it for some reason.

>Have fun,

I tried that before, and could never find the right spot.  I also drive other
sims, and didn't feel like having to re-cal every time I started a game.  I
decided it would be easier to just deal with it...
