Reduce that steering lock!

Could you imagine trying to drive a real F1 with 20 degrees of lock?! =:-0

The very first step in making a setup I go through is find the least amount
of lock I need to make the tightest turn on the course.

This is the way the real boys do it when they have the choice as well. Why
make things any harder on yourself then you have too?

I personally went from a stick to a wheel late in my GPL career almost 1
yr, and made myself start with rates as low as 10-12.  Now i've
basically settled around 14-16.  I usually drive one of the larger cars
(coop) but i find its better to keep your steering lock fairly
consistant from track to track just to maintain a consistant feel to the
car.  I don't use the hack btw. err i leave it at default which is speed
sensitive on.
