Sears Point & Watkins Glen

4 posts by 4 people · 02 Jul 1996 - 05 Jul 1996

Does a steering wheel greatly improve performances at Sears Point and Watkins Glen. I'm using a Gravis joystick and just can't seem to make some of the turns. My best times are only about 86mph at Sears Pt. and 108mph at Watkins Glen.

I have a Gravis joystick as well as a T2 and have found it is a lot easier to be CONSISTENTLY faster using the wheel, especially on the two circuits mentioned. The best route to an improvement in performance... a decent setup!! Refer to http://www.synapse.net/~crankstr/ for decent RACE setups.
