Thrustmaster Nascar Pro problems---different from anything else!!!

My wheel has worked fine(springs springs springs)  until. But I think
there's something wrong with it:
When I turn the wheel all the way left, it will decrease the amount of gas,
and when I "put the pedal to the medal" it turns the wheel little bit to the
right. This happens with every game (that runs with separate axis, which I
always run) and recalibration doesn't work. On some of the calibration
screens it shows that when I turn the wheel to far left, all other axis go
to far right!!!

Is there a problem with the pots or something?

I doubt that it's the pots, but I wonder if there isn't a loose
connection somewhere along the line that is shorting out between the
gas and wheel.  Are you connected directly to your game port or via an
extension or joyswitch device?

However, I have noticed the same thing with my NASCAR Pro, it's not very
pronounced, but with GPL I am over analyzing everything looking for that
extra edge. <G>

Try downloading and using TM's Pro Panel from their site. Worked for
GP1.
