I have LWFF and GPL 1.2, I use the FF settings as shown in Allison's site, however I would like to have more/stronger FF during cornering, what settings should I make to make it happen, thanks! Other question, is Watkins Glen in '67 exactly the same track as today? (I drive SCCA F500 class and I plan to drive there :) Jamie Clark [link lost in import]

GPL uses a different (more realistic) way to center the steering wheel. It does not use the self centering spring effect. Like in a real car, the steering in GPL does not spring back to center when you are stopped, but increases the centering or steering effort force as you go faster from the gyro effect of the front wheels turning. If you are going fast and enter a corner, the steering effort should not decrease unless the front wheels are sliding(understeer). If you want to increase the total effect, then increase the Overall Effect strength in the LWFF properties, or use a lower number in the core.ini max_Force setting. No, Maybe N3, I am not sure if Nascar runs the same course as SCCA. Good luck at the Glen. Lutrell :-) DSR # 74 http://insideracingtechnology.com/dsr1.htm
