Hi When I come out of the corner, I try to draft behind someone, and the car is trying to go to the inside wall, sometime I can turn the wheel to the right slightly, and I can hit just the right position and the car goes straight I have a Sidewinder Force Feedback Wheel using the usb port, I really notice this when I am on a long straightaway like Taladege, Daytona or the new Coca Cola track on NR2002.
It is supposed to do that. Winston Cup cars are setup to turn left. and To turn left quickly you have to compromise on your straightline driving. after running a bunch of laps, you'll probably even forget it's there...something to get used to.. dave henrie "Ron" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:JS4x8.110220$CH1.98172@sccrnsc02... > Hi > When I come out of the corner, I try to draft behind someone, and thecar

I loaded up N3 last night and went to run at Atlanta, came out of the pits onto the backstretch and immediately turned it into the outter wall because I was used to compensating for the camber etc. settings in N4/N2K2. :o) - Isotrip�

hehe, yesterday I ran a papy server daytona race with a completely messed up fixed setup. I can't belive how bad it was. The car drifted to the RIGHT. So I had to steer a bit to the left on the straights and even more in the turns of course. How someone came up with a setup like that is beyone me :) -- Olav Malmin remove .spam when replying
Must have been one of those setups for driving backwards... ;o) ROFL! - Isotrip� "Olav Malmin" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

LOL, and everyone thinks Nascar drivers only turn left. See, they do turn right... "Dave Henrie" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:o15x8.56540$[email hidden]... > It is supposed to do that. Winston Cup cars are setup to turn left.and

As noted by everyone else, it is the setup in the car causing this 'pull', it is on purpose. As you get better at the sim, turn up your sterring linearity from the stock 20% and you will feel the effect less with a Force Feedback wheel. At 100% linearity, the pull is barely noticable to me, but I don't use a FF wheel. Trust me, you want the car to try and turn left on its own on the ovals...
