    How do you go into reverse?

    I was testing at Martinsville and got spun out into the inside wall. I could not turn my wheel enough to get off the wall. My only option was put it in revese and back up enough to turn off the wall. I never could find how to put it in reverse.
    I am using auto for my gear.

      I'm on a PS5, L2 is the left paddle?
      I looked online and the only thing I got as an answer I got was from A.I., it said was you have to pull both the paddles at the same time.....that I did not try. I did try both paddles but independalty.

        Took me a bit to figure this out the first time too. For me I have to hit L2 twice to get it into reverse. I was thinking maybe the auto transmission doesn't work right and hitting L2 the 1st time puts it in neutral and the 2nd time puts it in reverse.

          I tried that but there must be a hiccup in there somewhere. I does nor work for me.
          now, what have found that works is you can hit your directional up button, it will ghost your car for a second and you now are sting on the track facing the correct way……hoping another car isn’t coming up behind you.
          I will once again try that to see if it works but I’m 99% i have done it. I have hit everything there is but it would have been nice to had a on-line game Manuel with this game to go over all this. Really how hard could that had been?

            It seems i am having the same problem……this should be an easy fix……that’s if they even know about it. I sent in a email to their support team but never heard back from them on it.
            would it not be nice if they had a forum on their site to bring these things to their attention. No taking anything away from here, I’m glad we have forum to figure these things out but who even knows if they read it.
            i remember the sierra forum that they had for the nascar game they made, it was great and a lot of things got fixed through their own forum.

              Ok, so I think I understand now, you have to press and HOLD L2.

                Here is what I have found that gets it in reverse. You have to be at a complete stop, then hold your foot on the brake, click L2, then take your foot off the brake and then either hit the brake again or the gas pedal. It will go into reverse then. I can’t remember the exact brake on, L2 off on again or gas pedal……isn’t it rather sad it has to be so confusion? Seems to me if you are at 0 mph hold the brake and click L2, boom you are in reverse.
                I will just hit the up direction and it will have you reset and pointing in the right direction. Mind you you will be on the track but I will never get all the steps to just find referees with the L2 button.
                I racing di get back with me on an email, I do not think they really know either in the support division. I did message them and ask to tell them they need to have a on line game Manuel that gives you all those options. Simple things that would seem to be something they would all want to have anyways. It would make people understand the game process more.

                One other thing I noticed tonight. I have moved my setting up to “expert” and at 101%, and the game is easier to drive. I started out on normal but it became too easy and now I’m finding the Expert mode is even easier……….weird isn’t it?
