Can someone help me with some setups for Indycar II? I have just bought
a joystick and it seems really twitchy at times, especially under
braking despite the brake balance being wound forward.

Thanks

I think someone said that if the car is twitchy under braking, bring the brake
bias towards the rear...

The handling under braking is influenced by more than the actual
brake balance. Camber, tyre pressure, shocks and wings also
affect the balance of the car under braking.
Generally, if a car is well balanced mechanically and
aerodynamically you would only need to adjust the brake
balance to get the car to handle well under braking.
If that is not the case you will have to tweak the set-up.
