Critical injury.....

As a keyboard-using GP4 driver I have just suffered the worst injury imaginable:- I broke my finger playing football !! I now have great difficulty turning right as my 'right' finger is strapped to the finger next to it. I read in Autosport there are now serious concerns about my future but I'll try to battle through the pain barrier and prove the doubters wrong....

Buy a wheel.

I never knew you were the editor of AutoSport?

A wheel?!? GP4 was meant to be played with keys! I've spent 10 years using A, Z, < and >..... I'm not changing now )

F1GP and GP2 were

How can you modulate steering,acceleration,brakes with keyboard?

In this way you play GP4 at 12% of his potentiality.

It takes no more than an hour to get used to wheel!!!

I know what Willow means. The keyboard is so great as a control method in gpx games that it often seems rather pointless to shell out for a wheel.

If its that important using a wheel, why don't you lot shell out for one for poor willow. He might be on the social for all we know !!!! lol

LOL John!

Nick Court uses the keyboard, so :p I think the keyboard works amazingly well with gpx

Mick Doohan raced with broken ankles,so if you are a real driver you have to persevere....

Otherwise you could use the Teethtrustmaster FF from MS....

Hope you will be ready soon guy...

The title of your post scared me. I thought it might be something like your force-feedback wheel popping you in the jaw after a head-on collision! On second thought, only F12002 force-feedback would be capable of that. (Sorry, just couldn't resist that bit of sarcasm.)

Eureka - I have it -

Go buy Nascar 2002 they only turn left on the ovals - so no problem with the "right turn finger" !!!

True - but he could skip the road tracks -

Hey you lose a few points but those Nascar rednecks score 4000 points for a win and 1000 for most laps in 9th place while driving anticlockwise with a beer balanced on your head !

So he could soon catch up - LOL

You cant drive nascar 2002 without a wheel!
Well yes you can but then you have no control of the car.
and what comes to your points giving joke the point system is much better than the one in formula 1 because its not the same if you finish 7th or 22th.
And you only get 5 points for leading and 5 more for leading the most!

( I understand you where joking but still had to do this )

It's only after we've lost everything, that we are free to do anything.

Well seems I hurt someones feelings again !

For the record I LOVE all Nascar games - although I mocked the points system in jest ! Nascar 2002 and Nascar Heat are my favourites but I have most of the old ones too. I went to see the Atlanta 500 in 1999 or 2000 ? while training at IBM Atlanta. I know europeans mock NASCAR but I think that slipstreaming on ovals is incredibly difficult to master. If you havn't tried Nascar games - give them a go they are FUN !

Hell I can even WIN on ovals - I LIKE going anticlockwise all day, I can do that just fine. Just wish I could win at Laguna Seca and Watkins Glen too !

Anyway I think I will give up this forum posting "business" - I just keep upsetting too many people. I don't mean to cause offence - honest !

I think I will go watch the Moto GP instead before I offend someone else. I think it is on today ???

No you didnt upset me and you are right its hard to slipstream on ovals and the competition in leagues is great.
