I'll see if I get some time to join you guys for a run tonight, being a Thursday night racer I haven't had time to walk the track yet, so might hang down the back of the pack  :o
What, for the first 10 laps? 8) ;D

I'm too slow, I just kept getting rear-ended, which isn't fun for either involved.

You gotta figure your wheel rotation out, with the help of Dr. Google.

I'm pretty sure its this one https://fanatec.com/media/pdf/e4/be/bf/CSR-ManualARn4YObl0pRFP.pdf

I posted this link is Discord on Tuesday. It shows how to change the wheel sensitivity (degrees) just using the buttons on the wheel.

Almost, but not quite.
Mine's the CSR Elite, a proto-type of the CSL wheel base but without a detachable wheel rim.
Looking at the Fanatec website, it's very existence is not acknowledged (not even as obsolete).

I would've thought it would still take 90 degrees of rotation of my wheel to get the in-game wheel to rotate 90 degrees (even though my real wheel would still then be able to rotate more).
The fact that the in-game wheel rotates 90 degrees with only 45 degrees of input is illogical to me.

In Content Manager under Settings | Controls
there is a checkbox that seems to align screen wheel with actual....
Wont effect degrees of rotation but might help....

btw: Can you adjust sensitivity in CM like my G27 does....?

What's the steering lock of the kart?
I adjusted my wheel soft-locks from 400 to 180 degrees to match what the model does, now I only have 20 degrees lock-to-lock on my wheel.
I'll probably have to go the full 900 to get it to work, but this counter-intuitive behaviour is f*@king with my logical OCD.  :-X

I reckon that practise race I was turning my wheel no more than 45 degrees the whole night so maybe that's just how it is?

No, I could only move my wheel 10-15 degrees on Tuesday.
Setting it to 900, my RL wheel now mirrors the kart wheel, and I can move it 45 degrees without spinning.

This, though, has created a new problem.
I used a new profile not to screw up my referred one, but it was set to 100% FFB by default.
The wheel casing has cracked open about 5mm (where it meets the internal chassis) & I could smell an electrical 'burning' coming from within. :o
I have reverted to 'screwing up' my original profile, so hopefully no more damage is incurred. :-\
