Got the Red MOMO-sweet! At first (in NR2003) had some wonky vibrations, but someone at Team Lightspeed had a good setup guide for the wheel. Things are hunky dory now, EXCEPT that, when I exit a high-speed turn, the wheel wants to snap back hard in the other direction (this also applies to maneuvering around on the straights-turn to the right to pass a car, and the wheel wants to snap back left). According to the setup guide, I should put a check on Enable Centering Spring, BUT set the strength to zero (yes, I made a profile for NR2003). If the strength is zero, then it shouldn't snap back, unless something else is to blame. It never happened with my old MS Sidewinder... John DiFool
Do you have any Steering Assist set in the sim? If so, try lowering it til snap back stops. "John DiFool" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I had to fine tune it a good bit and found that having the box checked did help but not with the kickback. I had to mess with the dampening in the game and system settings to find the combination that gave me the best ff feel without yanking the wheel out of my hand. set to 44 in system and 18 in game for overall damping effects. now I swear I can feel if I roll over a rock, hit a curb, etc.. but the wheel only has a little top dead center snap when changing direction in corners, you know oversteer :-) -- McWhom -----------------------------------------------------------------
