The Indianapolis 500 game nostalgia thread on this newsgroup inspired me to try the game with my new Thrustmaster GP1. It didn't work although it does work with my joystick. Too bad. Anyone have any ideas? I did try ctrl + J but that didn't help. My best lap ever was 242.06 (Lola Buick, no wing, cutting below white line, banzai run). Can't get close to 247!

My best ever was, yes, 247 point something. It was aggrivating because the Buick had an "analog" speedo...no digits, just a little dial that ended at 240 or something, which I was way past down the straight. So my trick was to pause, and then switch to the Penske-Chevrolet, with a nice digital dash. My best speed ever down the straight was 252. Didn't lose much around the corners...By the way, absolutely no wing, full positive stagger. If you're running right, you should be clipping the grass with your left front tire...
