I really don't think that you guys know what you're talking about  :-)
I wanna see you lap Monaco in GP2 with keyboard and without
steeringhelp. Good luck!

: Yes, I always played GP2, F1RS, MGPRS and F12000 without any steering
: help with a keyboard.

: I understand that some of you guys may need the help but I don't and I
: can't understand why I can't turn it off. It feels like going on rails.

  (Grin) I think what you MEAN here is that GP2, F1RS, MGPRS and F12000
were better at concealing the fact that they were giving you steering
help and you didn't NOTICE you had steering help with them.  Here's the
test - in GP2 or F1RS, press turn right while travelling at speed.  If
the wheels go to full lock right and you spin off the road then congrats
- you had no steering help on.  If the wheels go to a softer lock then
sorry, you did have steering help on all this time and just didn't notice.

Exactly. The steering help in GP3 seems much more intrusive than in GP2,
I don't feel like I've got so much control.
