Do you guys use full 900 degree mode? I tried 200 degree mode, but I feel like its too restricting. any pointers and/or tips on how to maximize the performance out of this thing? I tried the wheel again today, and it feels quite good, contrary to my prior review... still need to sort out the setup issue... I think I need a rug or something lol.

you need a setup like yours or really a dedicated table. I'm in search of something but won't be able to devote much time to it until i get my last paper of the semester out of the way. A rug or rubber mat is necessary.

Jaguar XR-8 Race Car. I think that's the exact name. It's fast straight line but not as good as the Minolta overall IMO. One day I'm going to take all these race cars and some sort of universal test on them.

Which track is Monaco in GT4. Can't view the video at work.

close... XJR-9.

sorry Monaco = Cote D'Azur. Monaco is what it's called in real life.

Yeah couldn't remember if an 8 or 9. Do you agree on my opinion of it. I remember you liked it and used it for a long track like the Ring.

Why don't they call it Monaco in the game? That track is a PITA btw. I doubt we'll ever use it for our Time Trials.

Thanks guys. I agree I hate that track. Tight turns, narrow streets, hills =

Oh, and what car did you use for the 4h Roadster Endurance race? That is my last endurance race besides the 3 24h ones (which I plan to finish by the end of the weekend).

You can only use a Miata on the Roadster race.

On another note for the Silvia races I used the HKS Genzi Silvia. Can you say 1 A-Spec point. I can't drift though.

Yeah I was doing the Lotus Elise races last night. 7 A-spec points and I was getting killed each race. So I added a turbo to it, the races went down to 5 A-spec points and I won easily. Weird.

Then I did the American GT Championship, 50 A-spec points per race and I won every one by 5-10 seconds with the Camaro LM Race Car.

It's still early. I think they will enter later. It's a terrific car at a terrific track - M3 GTR Race Car @ Deep Forest Reverse. It would be foolish not to enter.

Well you moved Srika. This month I'll be stuck at a %age because I'm moving too. The Masshole caught up quick though. He was just asking us what's B-Spec like a week ago.

I guess you've seen my entry already.

I don't know the exact number, but I think I'm just under 60% complete. I haven't done any of the "Hard" rally races yet because I don't care much for rally.
