3. Release Candidate Quality Assurance

- Test all other cars in set for similar improvements: FAIL; Change did not translate over to other cars with enough similar positive impact;

- Test another HQ track with representative car for similar improvements: PASS
  ^ HQ Imola

2. Problem: Loose wheel/swaying on straight

Theory: Decrease Force Exponent to compress forces closer to center to reduce tendency to sway back and forth.

FFB steer force exponent="0.84649", 0.74649+<, 0.54649->, 0.64649+>, 0.69649+>, 0.72149+>, 0.73399+<, 0.72774+>, 0.730865+>, 0.7324275+>, 0.73320875+>, 0.733599375+>, 0.7337946875-<, 0.73369703125+<, 0.733648203125+>, 0.7336726171875...
- 0.74649: Improved loose/sway around center on straights; Slight improvement to over-dampened issue; Lost of road feel; Grip levels seem okay;
- 0.54649: Too much centering spring; Tight/jittery around center on straights; Numb feel on high speed corners (clipping); Lost some road feel; Grip levels lost when clipping;
- 0.64649: Improved but similar symptoms as previous value.
- 0.69649: Improved but similar symptoms as previous value.
- 0.72149: Improved but similar symptoms as previous value.
- 0.73399: Improved but loose/sway around center is back, may have to adjust Grip Weight to counter this to avoid adjusting Force Exponent too much one way or the other; 
- 0.72774: Improved loose/sway around center; Slight centering spring feeling introduced;
- 0.730865: Very decent; Maybe a smidge too much centering spring;
- 0.7324275: Improved but similar symptoms as previous value; Introduced slight loose gap around center on straights, maybe counter with Grip Weight to avoid changing this value too much.
- 0.73320875: Improved but similar symptoms as previous value; Slight loose gap around center in previous step doesn't feel that bad, ignoring for now.
- 0.733599375: Very good; Hard to find anything wrong with this; Still, tiny bit too much centering spring effect, honestly may need a bigger jump than what I have left in this value but maybe other params can help.
- 0.7337946875: This felt worse, not quite sure why; Loose/sway around center reintroduced;
- 0.73369703125: Better, maybe one more step;
- 0.733648203125: Introduced a little centering spring;
- 0.7336726171875: Good; Can't find anything I want to fix immediately from this step.

Note: This step pretty much solved the over-dampened steering I noticed in Step #1. I don't consider a problem at this point.


Result: 

1. Initial observations:

- How does FFB feel? Good grip levels; Good road feel; Slightly over dampened steering; Loose wheel around center (sway) on straights;

- Do all/most cars share similar FFB experience? Yes

- Other issues: Inconsistent tire heating/cooling across cars; Front tires do not retain heat; Rear tires heat up uncontrollably on some cars; Some FOV issues
