Quote from NumberTwo :

doesnt have to be.

when i bought my wheel i went into heavy depression trying to get a good laptime, so i took it off desk and didnt play lfs for a month. then i came back, always started first and started learning. The hardest thing was, how to keep the car under control once it starts going away from you, you just need to get that feeling into yourself. Also the braking, gas out of corners, shifting gears, the whole concept of turning with wheel, its different.

it was exactly like this for me also. Was very depressed for few days after buying G27, was 2+ sec off my keyboard times....but then started getting better and better

Are there any replays availible of the event?

Problem 3) This might be a car tuning issue, I don't know, but with some of the more powerful cars the steering wheel vibrates violently (to the point of shaking the table it is mounted to). Is this merely a car tuning issue or do I have the wheel set-up improperly?

I think you should lower the force feedback strength. I had the same "problem" when I bought the G27.
