If you do come up with an industrial-strength driving
controller routine I'd be interested in using it. 
What I have now for DD is not immune from "fast spin"
syndrome.

Just make sure it only interprets the two significant
bits coming in on the controllers.  Otherwise it might
get confused by the footcontroller system I use for
DD.

Now that we have a disassembly for Indy 500, that
could get patched also.
