Hi. I too use a joystick (CH flightstick PRO). I have been getting great
lap times in hungararing (hungary) . 1:18.595 is my best time.
I use a steering lock of 13 degrees, 72% sensitivity on accelerator,
same on breaks. (I use the vertical motion of the joystick as
throttle/break)
I also 66% decrease in lock with speed.
What are your joystick values? I would like to try them and see if I
can further improve my laptimes.

What's the best steering wheel out there for the likes of F1GP2 and
others like it ?

Have a look at the June and August issues of Sim Racing News at the
address in my .sig, and take your pick....!! I have a TSW, but there's
lots more good ones out there.

Cheers!
John

All sensitivities to 90%, lock 12 degrees, 65% decrease with speed.

Maybe I missed the beginning.

But any clues on how to make my T2 whell as 'sharp' as possible? I want it so
that when I turn it all the way right (or left) I get a REAAAALLLLYY Tight
turn. The tightest possible. I'm not sure if GP2 will auto-magically have the
MAX X-Left and X-Right = Max Turn of Wheels...
