Got my T1, NFS YEEHAH!, Nascar DAMMIT!

I got my T1 yesterday with the full version of Nascar and the track pack. BTW, what are some of your best times (total for all six laps) on autumn valley in NFS? After not having played the game for a couple weeks, I fiddled around with driving to make sure that everything worked ok (it did) and to get used to shifting with the stick instead of joystick buttons. I then restarted the race and with no practice ran 8:23.xx with the 512TR. I beat the default lap record (1:25.7 I believe) on laps 2-6 (not on lap one because of the standing start) and got that 8:23 time. The default total record was 8:30, I believe. Unfortunately, after trying to install nascar, the sound didn't work, and it screwed up the sound on NFS so I deltree'd nfs and lost my proof. Installing the track pack fixed ALL my sound problems. NOW with Nascar (GRRRRRRRRRR) WHAT THE HELL is the deal with the road courses??? Did they pave them with teflon for god sakes??? I know more than enough about handling dynamics to know that a race car with slicks does NOT spin out that easily! I tried modifying all sorts of stuff (tire pressure, spoilers, camber, shock stiffness) and it didn't help any. Are we doomed to road courses made out of ice?
Try playing F1GP/WC with Traction help off then. The TYRES are made out of ice too! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Mail sent via Demon Internet - Full IP for 10/Month Tel:0181 371 1234 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A 3400 pound automobile on a road course is far, far different than any other type of road course simulator you've ever driven. You need to slow down. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Raleigh, NC | Exit the Gates of Hell - run Linux! | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

You're asking if it works ? Need For Speed and T2 ? Once you have tried the T2, you won't get back to your keyboard or Joystick....!! And YES, the Wheel and the Pedals work FINE. Get the T2, it worth it. (In France, you get F1GP in the package...) Bye.

Yes, the T1 works fine, if you use the adapter that is supplied with the wheel/pedal. If not, you can get it from Thrustmaster.
