Anyone have any difficulties with the above combo and specifically the wheel
going out of cal during the game?

I have noticed that I am having to increasingly drive with right hand lock
down the straights.

Is there any way I can overcome this?

Thanks,
Craig.

I had this problem with a Sprint with GPL
With exactly the same results
Take it back and buy a better wheel - in my case a MS FF

I wondered if the Thrustmaster card might do the trick?  Is there one?

Ok.  Noe im probably the only person in the world who likes this wheel and
hasnt had problems with it.  Maybe im just lucky.  I did have a problem with
driving at a half to left lock on the straights but i think its a bug in the
software they give you with the wheel.  I used Win95s driver for the TM T2 and
it works great.  

Now, how i figured it out is cause i still drive N1 alot (though not the
NASCARs...i drive carsets i d/l'ed of the net).  But i calibrated it there and
it works fine.  Reason...it is just a regular calibration as opposed to a wheel
config.  Try it and see what happens.

You need to get the updated drivers for the Sprint wheel at
Thrustmaster's web site -- http://www.thrustmaster.com
