Everything but the Brabham pulling left????????????

by Kirk Lan » Tue, 14 Sep 1999 04:00:00

Since I've been getting kinda bored lately, I decided to try the other cars
in GPL aside from my little Brabham....

AND EVERY FRIGGIN ONE (from the Lotus to the BRM) PULLS HARD LEFT!!!!!!!!!!

What the heck is wrong?  I've recalibrated my wheel a billion times, and my
Brabham is perfectly fine...and no I didn't hit anything yet, I don't even
have damage on :P

That happened to me once. I think I was in a Brabham originally, too.
After rebooting, the problem was cured.

You've just become used to the Brabham's superior characteristics.

Do you mean steers hard left, or is it the torque effect from the
differential? If it steers hard left I can't help. But if it is the torque
effect, be smoother with the right foot. Grand Prix, or any high performance
car without traction control and rear wheel drive will do it to some extent,
and maybe the effect was masked in the Brabham with it having such a smooth
power curve.

Well, I managed to make the Eagle drive straight after rebooting...havent
tried any others, 'cause with some tweaked Red Candy, that thing is
awesome!!!  (Consistent 1.08's at the glen, where my best is a lone 1.07.77)

Guess there's no cure but just to drive the eagle (and what the heck's wrong
with that? :D

Well, I went to do a race today at the Glen...

I checked the garage settings...

I realized I had been doing 1.08s - not with the tweaked Red Candy, but with
the DEFAULT setup!!

Loaded the correct setup and ripped off a 1.07.75, 1.07.00, 1.06.83 (!), and
1.06.60 (!!).

Byebye BT24...helloooooooooo T1G!
