You should still have reverse while wheels are turned. It just seem to take a little longer to engage reverse. I dont know if that can be fixed. But what I had to do was learn to drive a little different. Basically, delay allows you to pulse the breaks without going into reverse (its a great feature if used right) and if you remember to always engage the brakes during a crash going back to neutral then back to reverse will make for a faster reverse response at some cases I can get my revese almost has fast has the AM PCB. What happen's is most will get fustrated when they crash/or get hacked then they either leave the throttle in neutral contemplating what just happened for a slip second (not ever engaging the brakes) or start flipping the reverse frantically, both of these methods will delay reverse. Frantically flipping the reverse will delay reverse even more then the standard delay.

Try this: Move your car foward then hit the brakes slightly then let the throttle go to neutral then before the car stops to roll or just when it stops to roll engage reverse, you should go into reverse fairly fast.

Good luck man, (and get your Mini 96 with expansion soon)

I reset the memory so I was starting from a fresh setup. I have everything the same except what I have mentioned below.

ST R 2
TH F 8 (if I go any higher I can't engage reverse at all)

TH: Highpoint
H40 (this I guess I don't understand much, because with it set to 40 shouldn't I be only getting a little throttle??)

has anyone used the ICS software settings? anything to report on that?
Thanks for posting this. The reverse issue (plus some other handling issues) absolutely killed me in my first HFAY OLPS race. Hopefully this will help.
