Playing GTR, when I wiggled a steering wheel back and forth, the car
rocks back and forth like a boat. Is that right? Thanks.

Probably at least 120 miles an hour. The hood of the car rocks back and
forth without the car changing direction. For all I know, that's
perfectly normal, that's why I'm asking. Thanks.

no, that's not right what you are describing; there is some bobbing
depending on bumpiness of the road and suspension settings, but that
dies off shortly after whatever caused that is past. you could be
experiencing a delayed response from your controler which could cause
some boatlike behaivior; or your graphic settings could be too high
slowing down the apparent response causing continual correction and
which may appear to result in boatlike behaivior. the cars being
modeled are very fast responsive race cars, steering is very precise
and that is what you should be experiencing. you have not provided any
information about the system you are running gtr on, so I cannot to
diagnose your experience further.
