The biggest thing that helped me was the following:

1. Laggy Steering - For me there was too much steering at the end of the turn which made the buggy feel really laggy. I was constantly trying to correct the buggy at the end of every turn. For me.....Limiting the amount of steering and slowing it down helped immediately correct this.

2. The second thing I did was limit the throttle. It was set initially to 100% and the buggy was really hard to control. I limited the throttle to 90-95% and BAM! The buggy was planted. Yeah I lose a little on the straight but it smoothed out the throttle response.

On the Pavoda track I went from 50sec laps crashing all over the place to a best lap of 36 which is pretty good as I am not that good of a driver IRL.

I think its fun and for someone who doesn't have time to get to the track for practice days (like me), I think it will help stay relatively sharp in the hand eye coordination dept.

BTW Happy New Year Everyone!
