a solution for the pull (N4)

I'm sure most you have figured it out, but for those of you who haven't.... when you figure how far to the right you need to turn the wheel to compensate, re-adjust the placement of your hands on the wheel so now the corrected grip, makes you go strait when you hold the wheel strait. For me this is no longer a problem, and it actually gives me a tad bit more wheel travel to the left.

You would have to do this every time for each track you visit. -- Kevin Anderson [email hidden] "Kai Fuller" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:F9x06.161425$[email hidden]... > I'm sure most you have figured it out, but for those of you who haven't.... > > when you figure how far to the right you need to turn the wheel to > compensate, re-adjust the placement of your hands on the wheel so now the > corrected grip, makes you go strait when you hold the wheel strait. > > For me this is no longer a problem, and it actually gives me a tad bit more > wheel travel to the left. > >

of course, just do it during the first lap of practice, of course you do. Kevin Anderson <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:hnA06.6286$[email hidden]...

Works fine unless you have a wheel with hard springs. I really have to work my TSW2. Kai Fuller wrote:

A piece of tape works nicely to "mark the spot" "Kai Fuller" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:F9x06.161425$[email hidden]... > I'm sure most you have figured it out, but for those of you whohaven't.... > > when you figure how far to the right you need to turn the wheel to > compensate, re-adjust the placement of your hands on the wheel so now the > corrected grip, makes you go strait when you hold the wheel strait. > > For me this is no longer a problem, and it actually gives me a tad bitmore > wheel travel to the left. > >

I finally tried N4 with force feedback and thought the pull to the left and the feel during cornering was very much on the mark. I even pulled better lap times with force feedback cause it gave me the feel of weight transfer during cornering. I drive a Late Model stock car and was surprised at how much N4 felt like the real thing.

Or an F1 type wheel with just handgrips like on my hyperstimulator. N4 will probably not see my harddrive as I don't like the stock cars and I'd just as soon wait for WSC. Plenty of other racing to do ... Jeff On Thu, 21 Dec 2000 23:26:42 -0500, Philster <[email hidden]> wrote: >Works fine unless you have a wheel with hard springs. I really have to >work my TSW2. >

Yes, that is when it is worse. Those using Force Feedback probably don't gripe about this as much because they aren't nearly as aware of this issue as those with Non-FF Wheels or FF Wheels in non-FF mode. When you are fighting against a centering spring with a wheel yanked 30 degrees to the right, it's damned tiresome. I typically do not like to run my wheel in FF mode with Nascar SIMS, and set the centering spring to max. Can't do that with N4 due to the pull. The only thing that's going to make everyone happy on this is a Trim Tab, ala Nascar Heat. -Larry "Philster" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Works fine unless you have a wheel with hard springs.

Good thing the centering spring on my steering wheel is broken. :) ----------------------------------------- Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrash.00game.com
