Is there any easy way to control your speed while leaving/entering pit
lane?  I keep getting black flagged

Yes, there are two ways.  Manual braking or Braking help option which is
controlled by the computer.  In both cases the speed must be kept under
55mph while entering/leaving the pit.

: Some people turn on auto-braking while in the pits with alt-b then turn
: it off when they are out with the same keystrokes. Some have said this is
: "cheating" but as far as I'm concerned it just simulates the
: engine governers the teams have started using while in the pits. I have
: tried it and it does help but it is NOT perfect. If you keep the pedal on
: the floor you will bounce up to 56 mph and get the black flag.

: Hope this helps,

I thought that it was ok to go 56mph down pit road. I've down that many
times without getting black flagged. Everytime I see 56mph I quickly get
off the gas. However, if I go 57mph then I can pretty much guarantee that
I will be black flagged. But I believe the 56mph is still ok... at least
for a short peroid of time.

Stay off the gas on the way out, use the brakes on the way in :)

It's called the brake! I kept getting black flagged too, until I took (in
this case) my finger off the accelerator.
