You need to set the force feedback strength to a negative number. You will then find the steering wheel turning the wrong way if you use pit assistance, so you may want to turn that off. However outside of that it will function correctly if you do this. Why you need to do this when I have never seen it in any other sim is beyond me, but it works.

Me too. Feels like at center, it's teetering on a cliff... In fact, I don't feel much in the way of FF effects at all on my Momo wheel. -Larry "Lue" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3c09ca5f$0$19498$[email hidden]...

I have it too, and it's too annoying... It's not that it lacks centering. It's that it feels like it's _avoiding_ centering. Hard to explain. But, it IS very annoying. -Larry "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:qftO7.27997$[email hidden]...
