I can't get the NASCAR Sprint wheel to work in GP2 or in Official F1 Racing.
Turning the wheel works okay, and the right-hand pedal/paddle works.  But I can
get no response on the left-hand pedal or paddle.

Anyone know how to get the left-hand pedal to work?

Some controls use weird directions (eg. brake is joy2 horizontal or
something). Try playing around with the axis settings in the
controller driven calibration to see if you can figure out which
pedal/paddle works on which joystick and which axis.

I had the same problem and look at which axis n2 uses for the left paddle !
Also, mark the "Controller driven" box.

What do you mean, "controller driven" box?

It looks like the docs for the Sprint on the CD-ROM are wrong.  In DOS
the paddles are:

Right = Joystick A Vertical (Y1)
Left = Joystick B Horizontal (X2)

The pedals are:
Accelerator = Joystick 2 Vertical (Y2)
Brake = Joystick 2 Vertical (Y2)

So for GP2:
Steering = Joystick A Horizontal
Accelerator = Joystick B Vertical (for pedal) or Joystick A Vertical
              (paddle)
Brake = Joystick B Vertical (for pedal) or Joystick B Horizontal
        (paddle)
Clutch = (if using pedals only) Joystick B Horizontal (left paddle) or
         Joystick A Vertical (right paddle)
Gears =  Your choice of Joystick A or B (A = top row, B = bottom row)

As a side note:  I've finally discovered a use for the pedals with the
Sprint unit.  In DOS (or in GPL as "generic" input), you can have the
pedals plugged in and use one of the pedals for an analog clutch (should
work with GP2 as well).  In DOS with the pedals connected the following
are the axes for the Sprint unit:

Left paddle = Joystick 2 Horizontal (X2)
Right paddle = Joystick 1 Vertical (Y1)
Brake pedal = Joystick 2 Vertical (Y2)
Gas pedal = Joystick 2 Vertical (Y2)
Steering = Joystick 1 Horizontal (X1)
Buttons = 4 (Joystick 1 & 2)
