Well tax time is coming up sooo, maybe if my refund is big enough I might be able to convince myself to pick up a G.

I have an RB4 drift set specifically for SO. I was doin pretty crappy tonight though. Too much driving super fast cars, couldn't adjust. I think I'm gonna hit up a drift server now though.

I can't assign the buttons. I mean i can, but they don't do anything. It's a logitech and I've got the latest drivers for it.

The game also knows what controller I'm using.

make sure you set "button" or "axis" properly.Like if you have a button for throttle, make sure throttle is set to button not axis. Its somewhere in the control menu...

I'll look more later. Its late, I am braindead.

It took me awhile to get my Logitech Rumblepad 2 set up for it, as I recall. I haven't played in a long time, but I'm kind of tempted to download it again. I already really want a wheel, and LFS just makes that want worse.

I'll give it more effort later today. This game does sound fun.

On demo I dunno... I am guessing you gotta create an account at there website first.

I would practice a bit in single player mode first though so you don't just go piss everyone off... and remember to lift off the gas when up shifting so you don't fry your clutch...

I wasn't lifting throttle while up shifting to not fry my clutch; I actually noticed it shifts better. I'm a Gran Turismo fanatic; I'm ready to go.

Game says I need some password.

You don't know how many times I've tried to flip a car in Gran Turismo. It's cool that I was able to in a simulation game. I wasn't even trying either.
