Might be noted that when calibrating "full throttle", "no throttle", "full brakes",
& "no brakes" the "shift lever" should be pressed instead of the fire button (Those
instructions are from Nascar's part of the TM site, I did it by replacing the shift
lever by the paddles...)

Hope it all works, 'cause I think the wheel is pretty good...
