RDAardvarkI never use my horn during a race. Maybe on the grid, but never in the race.
Seems I'm guilty of a few things here, perhaps even racing, so can I disqualify myself from race 1 please? Thanks.
Exit stage left.
Don't disqualify your self. That wasn't a vital move anyway cause I believe that race was abondoned because of Dax and nel not being able to see each other.
And even if it was, we all make mistakes and I forgive you and anyone else for the incidences I was in tonight.
Also @fox did you like the little *beep beep beep* I did when you let me re pass after our spin?

Well, I spent about 90% of my time playing NASCAR on GT5 so I envisioned getting a wheel for to help with my driving lessons and to help me go 'silky smooth' around the corners.
Problem is my wheel is a DFGT and is second hand. It spends a lot of time calibrating and sometimes feel loose and stiff which is annoying. Trying gears out again is a pain. I can shift with the low power cars but controlling Nascars when I spin or shifting down with a LMP, I simply cannot shift let alone turn through a corner.
I've been more smooth with my Sixaxis over the past few weeks so after a week of trying out ovals, I found my Sixaxis to be more smooth. I was more in control with a sixaxis and held my line better.
Its a matter of preference personally and I simply cannot get used to it and I think the wheel is slightly dodgy.
I also failed to get my 60th Gold License Test in my wheel after four hours this week on the double hairpin at Indy. Still bloody proud getting 59 Golds with a Sixaxis. ARGH.
EDIT: I'll be honest I'm not the most natural driver. I've not done as well I would have liked in Furi's TOCA, your Swifts, Dax's GT1 and Andy's GT1 and I often have to put in a lot of practice and fine tuning of setups to get even in the top ten. Ovals come more naturally so I've done much better in IndyCar, IROC and Nascar where I do literally five to ten minutes of practice and I'm good to go.

For the double hairpin Indy challenge, I'd say you need to use a wheel, and turn at a crazy angle for the Skid Recovery to kick in. I can't remember how I did it, but I managed to get that done in 2 or 3 attempts.
Ah, good old Skid Recovery Force. Might get it done. We'll see. Cheers for the tip, I'll have a go tomorrow and let ya know, again
