CPR handling vs GP2/F1RS

I find the handling of GP2 and F1RS demo very believable, but the CPR demo has me driving like a drunken sailor (no offense, it's just a saying). I feel like input is either delayed in onset or continues after input is removed or both. I know indy and F1 cars will handle differently because of weight, horsepower, etc., but shouldn't the steering still be precise? I'm using a GP1, but have tried my TM FCS stick with the same results. Is it the setup? Does the patch help? I can't imagine getting the fast times I read about here with the sloppy handling I'm experienceing. I'd really like to get this sim, but I'd like to know I can tune it up first. Any suggestions? Thanks.

There are two things which may help tighten up the steering in CPR for you. Go to Options > Controls, and adjust the Speed Sensitive Steering and Non-Linear Steering sliders. By adjusting these you can get a twitchy handling setup. The further left these sliders are, the tighter the setup. Fool around with these and see if it helps. As for the patch, it effects a number of things (the cars will now avoid hitting you) and the traction is reduced on intermediate and pro settings. How realistic this reduced traction is, I don't know, but it seems more like the F1RS demo. It seems alot of people hate CPR, I kind of like it.
