Info for NASCAR2 and should work for ICR2:

I would have to try this out myself, but it should work.  I assume by
the triggers you are referring to the "levers" on the back of the wheel.
If you have an older GP1 (one that came with an adaptor), you can use it
without the adaptor.  The adaptor is only needed for many native Win95
programs.

Without the adaptor, you will need to calibrate both joysticks in the
NASCAR2 program.  Then you should be able to select the levers when
asked for gas/brake input.  Of course this is in a pure DOS
environement.  If you still can't get this to work, try deleting the
controls.cfg and calib.val files in the main NASCAR2 directory and then
restarting the program.

If you are trying to do this via Win95, get Thrustmaster's ProPanel
applet <ftp://208.129.210.78/pub/library/propanel.exe>.  The set up the
GP1 in this applet.  Be sure that it is the only device selected and
that it is device ID #1.

Hi Brian

I also have the GP1.  To get it to work in Nascar2, go to the controls
page, in the upper left portion of the page is a area to assign your
contols for different inputs, ie steering, acceleration, braking, etc.
Then, calibrate your wheel,(it calibrates as one joystick.  The wheel as
one axis & the paddles as the other.)  You should now be ready to go.
Works for me.  

Hope this helps

does anyone know how to reverse the use of the paddles for Rally
Championship and the TOCA demo. For me, these both configure as
left=brake, right=accel. whereas when playing N2,ICR2, GP2 I prefer to
use them the other way around ?
