Help! I've just purchased GP3. It kicks ass, but I am having some serious dramas getting around Loew's Hairpin at Monaco in anything less than a three point turn. Naturally this knocks the lap times around a bit and does assist in causing the odd traffic jam. I simply run out of steering lock even if I take the hairpin at walking pace. I had no problem getting around there in GP2 using the same wheel, even though it is a cheap $99.00 one. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this and would anyone have any suggestions as to a different technique or whether there is a patch that may increase steering lock Any assistance would be greatly apreciated. CD.
You can increase the lock at the controller setup, it will make the steering more sensitive, but you'll be able to steer around the Loews hairpin.

The default steering lock is way too small for a wheel anyway. A setting of about 15-16 should get you round lowes ok, but I use 18.

This option really should be located in the setups menu, not the controller setup. Well, maybe in GP4..... "Harjan Brand" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:EULm5.18074$[email hidden]... > You can increase the lock at the controller setup, it will make thesteering
