Yeah, that way it's more fun. But it would be handy if you had said what wheel you have. In any case, go to the game controler applet in the Start->Settings->Control Panel , select your wheel, select properties, and start looking for something like split axis..... Don't forget to recalibrate/assign the controls in GPL....

Hi Sorry if this is an obvious question, I want to set up my pedals so that the brake and gas pedal work independently i.e at the moment when I touch the brake pedal I get a corresponding lift of the gas -- Regards David Robinson [email hidden]
The way you are describing is NOT independent. That's the "normal" setting for lower-priced controllers. A good controller will have the option to use a split axis or independent pedal set-up. A real car obviously uses independent pedals and GPL works vastly better with independent pedals, but feel free to use the lower quality setting if you please. I don't know of any other title that is programmed well enough that the setting really makes a difference, though most newer games at least support the option. Chances are your controller can be set for that in the control panel. Marc.
