Anybody got one? If you do, tell me this:

When I’m playing Project Gotham Racing and I have the controller set to configuration ‘a’ (the default configuration), I should be able to push _out_ on the right butterfly button to accelerate, right? That’s what it looks like the manual says to me.

It’s not doing _anything_ when I push out on either butterfly button.

The right button goes in reverse when I pull in (simulating the X button as it is supposed to), the left button activates the handbrake (simulating the A button). I think my new steering wheel is busted.

_bump_

One more try.

I searched the Xbox and madcatz websites and can’t find a darn thing about the controller setups. Anybody?
