Burnout - Starting Line slippage

2 posts by 2 people · 29 Apr 1998 - 29 Apr 1998

I took the plunge and bought Burnout. In order to get started quickly, I downloaded some setups from the "Launch pad." I'm running the software version on my HP P166 with a TM GP1 wheel. Here's the problem: I pre-stage, then stage by letting the car creep forward with the brakes ON then the first stage lights goes on, then the car creeps forward (with the Brakes ON) and the first stage light goes out. Then the second light goes on ( therefore I have unintentionally deep staged). The car continues to creep forward until get the red light. I changed the roll out by switching from airplane front wheels to the big pizza cutter wheels. How do I keep the car from creeping through the lights? Do I have to use the transbrake? I cannot find any brake adjustment and I have also recalibrated the wheel. Any suggestions? Also, does Burnout have wheelie bars. On several on the Hot setups the cars perform some wild blowovers? As always Thanks ! Tim

Yes use the transbrake. What that does is basically put the transmission in both reverse and 1st a the same time which keeps the car still. And, no the game does not have whheelie bars in it, well, not functional anyway. Try moving the weight up to the front on those blow-over cars. >I took the plunge and bought Burnout.
