Happy New Year everyone....I'm considering buying gp500 and would like to
know if the game supports having the brake on a separate 3rd axis for my
analogue w/p set. I could only get the demo to work with 2 axis.

I've been able to get it to work only with 2 axis.

Can you dirve a motorbike with 3-axis, as in braking and accelerating at the
same time?

I thought you'd bed thrown sky high.

That would be pretty difficult to do, since the front brakes and throttle
are both controlled by the right hand. Maybe some guys use the rear brake
to control wheelspin coming out of a corner rather than roll off the
throttle. As for downshifting coming into the corner, I believe most race
bikes are equipped with slipper clutches, so the riders can just bang it
into a lower gear without over-revving the motor.

So GraDee, how did your test on your Honda 50 turn out? I'd try it on my
bike, but there's about 5 inches of new snow on the ground and the temp
about -5F. Burrr.....
