I turned it off, but I didn't care for crappy handling. Can anyone tell me
if it's realistic to have such a effect? I've never driven a stock car, so I
can't really say. Nor do I recall any drivers making comments about it.

Nope its just the Papy based games. The Ratbag DTR series games have a very
simular calibration as Papy and their value keeps going until I hit the
stops, and in F1/GTR2002 the red slider maxes out right at the end of my
wheel travel. Only the Papy games stop so early. Guess I should have taken
your bet. :)
