Is it me, or does it seem that the car isn't actually based on the 4 wheels,
but rather one big wheel beneath the driver? Something just doesn't seem
right....

I feel EVERYTHING with this sim. As a matter of fact, no sim has ever given
me more feedback. I finally get the feeling of *** tires on asphalt.

You MUST work with the setups. Some very simple adjustments make all the
difference in the world. Your controller must be setup correctly. This sim
is no different than any other quality sim with regards to the importance of
setups and controller settings.

I just don't see it, David. Can you give me an example of a setup change or
two that will make it seem more....realistic? The controller is set up
perfectly, that's not the problem. Help if you can, please.

Getting the same feeling here. For instance, if you lose the back you
seem to spin around the center of the car, not around the front tires,
as one would expect.

Strange how so many people can have different views of one
title.

F1RC finally makes me feel like I'm in an F1 car. The feeling
and feedback I get is unbelievable. It's the first time I've
felt in the groove for 20 laps in practice and was shocked
when I ran out of fuel. 20 laps already?! Oops. ;)

Been zipping around Imola and Melbourne. Choose one track
and lap it continuously, it may just click for you.

Cheers,
Rod.

I have some good experience of drinving in GPL,NascarAllVersions etc ...

i'have notice that  front wheel have more effect if:
-there's more break to front
-less break assistance ( no more than 5% in reality ? )

using ruined MS Wheel .
