Hello, Well, I took the plunge and forked out for a T2. Played with it a bit - still about 6 seconds off of my best keyboard times. Anyway, I was wondering if someone would send me some help on control setups - I am driving NSA with opposite-lock and traction help. (Yeah, I know, I'm a wimp!) For those of you contemplating this purchase, my initial impression is neutral. It seems like it is "more realistic" but I think the keyboard in GP2 is really pretty nice. This is a good deal harder and not likely to be much fun for anyone without a very large investment of time. This isn't a big problem for me, but some people who have a life might be disappointed. The T2 seems to be of reasonable quality, works fine on P-133 with Ensonique card. The only *** is that the shifter is cheesy and the pedals have way too much travel. I am planning on installing shifter buttons on the wheel. Does anyone have an easy fix for the pedal travel? Email responses to me as I know some of the answers to this have been posted here before. If anyone else is interested, email me and I can post a summary or forward responses to you. Thanks in advance, Nick

(Yeah, I know, I'm a wimp!) Keep them on for now The springs will break in the pedals, but Thrustmaster will replace them free Don't push down so far when you're calibrating. That way you'll limit pedal travel. BTW-> Use "control driven calibration" Do it! It's the best. And our GP2 League uses 100% race distance.
