I always start with a Miata and it's been doing me good so far.

+1 to that. Takes away from playing time

Makes no sense though

Does turn in seem slow to anyone? Or maybe I'm not used to driving stock cars anymore.

that's exactly how i feel. playing with a wheel is fun though, but i'm just not used to the unpredictability of force feedback.

That is awesome! LMAO Could only imagine what that would be like in real life. Definitely frustrating though.

I haven't had any problems with my DFGT wheel. Haven't played as much as others, but still finding it to a damn good job.

Anyone try the Open Lobby? I tried to join a few rooms and got disconnected each time. How do the rooms work? Do you need a certain amount of rooms before a race can start? What's the best online mode?

Started out with a Miata btw. fun stuff!

First turn spin out? same here its hard to get that car right.

More so the game saved data is encrypted. That means if your PS3 takes a crap you lose your game saved data aka your cars and stuff.
