I use a T2 contoller and notice that whenever I am in a straightaway at top speed I begin to lose control of the car and the car wants to go to the left. What's the adjustment I need to make to keep the steering solid at high speeds? Thanks.

There are three things you can do. 1) Re-calibrate your controls, making sure that the steering axis is perfectly centered. 3) Decrease your steering lock/ratio. I think this is in the car setup menu. 2) Increase your speed sensitive steering. I forget what GP2 calls this, but it's in the advanced control options menu. Imperfect calibration would explain the car pulling to the left - try recalibrating first. Losing control indicates too much steering sensitivity. I personally prefer to keep speed sensitive steering to a minimum, so I'd try reducing steering lock first. -- Pat Dotson IMPACT Motorsports http://www.impactmotorsports.com/pd.html

Along with the other ideas that Pat suggests, I have found that "dirty" steering pot can contribute to cross-talking between the gas/brake and steering. You may also want to clean your steering pot. -- **************************** Michael E.
