Thanks guys, many drivers in my area use steering speed frequently to make quick adjustments for track condition changes... although I don't race turf anymore I would start around 85% steering speed with a brand new set of tires and would increase the steering speed 1% after every run.... then after 15 runs the car would start to push and I had to replace the tires in order to maintain my lap times.
Maybe I'm being over critical with the switch from percentage to milliseconds, so I guess the important thing is that it still performs the same function, I just need to get it our of my head that it shouldn't matter if the conversion formula changes so some other arbitrary setting that I need to study/learn/adapt
