Hey guys,

Got the patch, played with the force feedback. What do the different forces
actually mean? I can't figure out what each wheel shake means what.

FF in GPL is different then I expected it to be.  I thought you would
be able to feel oversteer or understeer, but that's not what it's
telling you about.

The amount of force you feel on the wheel increases as cornering
force of the car increases.  The force on the wheel will decrease
when the car starts pushing or oversteering, but it's up to you
to tell which is happening.  I think force stays about the same
if you are in a balanced four wheel drift.

I've been loving this patch for a couple of months already -
can't wait to race on VROC with it later!  :)
