It's not nearly as bad with the bias at around 48/52 F/R. The only thing I
really don' tlike is that the brakes don't seem to release when you let up
on the pedal- it's about a necessity to use the ABS option.

Hey, what did you expect, something like GPL? :)
Just drove 2 hours at Australia, certainly all the mentioned
shortcomings are true, graphics and sound stuff, but I really, really

Sorry... :)

Just curious but have you guy's even tried adjusting the bias? I know in
gpl if the bias is set 70% to the front you get the same effect.
