That sucks .. well I guess that's the price for having an .. idk .. 8 year old steering wheel

btw: the game runs perfecly smooth with medium-to hight settings .. (texture filtering at max, other setting at 3/4, AI traffic at 100%)
but not with the steering wheel it doesn't

I'll try to disable the force feedback . . even tough i think I already did that and it had no effect ..

aren't recent wheels using USB 2.0 ?

How can I play with wheel and keyboard? My wheel have only 10 functions. Settings options are: keyboard or wheel. In other games I have a third option: wheel + keyboard. Can I do in this games?
