I'd get onto the support folks whether you've got the video or not. They still might ask for it, but worth a try. I just wanted to make sure you'd ruled out the obvious problems.

by the way, I'd have appreciated the tits too, so you should have moved them out of the if condition altogether :)

Picked up a pair of Sparco karting boots at lunch from Lightning Karts. Spent a bit more than I wanted to but they look too cool and they are dam comfy.

Made sure I jumped into the bank account and squirreled away $250 for a shifter before the wife goes mental.

This entered my mind last night and psyched me out for a while. I kept thinking about the difference of the 918 rim vs the G25 and how I had to work a little more to catch those little slides and micro corrections. I was a lot slower then normal and I just kept thinking about the differences in the hardware instead of just driving. I also raced with the lights off for the first time with the new hardware and kept pressing the wrong buttons or missing them all together...

I PB'd the P1 at Silverstone when I was practicing with Righty and co but Im still slower as im trying to unlearn 9 years of G25 use.

I bailed from the online crew and did a little Career mode and the Nord challenges last night.
I managed to get the P1 around the Tourist layout in 6:16 breaking my G25 PB and smashing the alien time so IF i can turn my brain off and JUST DRIVE im fine.

Just about to drop the hammer on the GT2/Elite combo but... I can't register let alone buy them :)

Might have to save more coin for a Thrustmaster rig shame though because the Fanatec seems to be the business .

Awesome. Now all you need to do is convince norbs to run an Open Wheeler series!?!

Maybe you could sing to him?

I reversed the paddles on my formula rim (left-to-right and flipped, so that they weren't as close to my fingers. I found that in the default form it was too easy to accidentally shift. If this newer version is like my original one, then you can also adjust the throw on the paddles slightly. I adjusted mine so that the switch activates with minimal movement of the paddle.

The guy who did it accepted that it wasn't setup properly, he said that at this stage it was just a test of how well triple Titan X's could run 3 x 4k monitors.

Oi, don't diss the hardware!

Id rather have a single screen up close than that setup. Kills immersion if I can see anything else.

I rocked a G25 for a year before I had the next work bonus roll in and TIMMY30 mentioned it wasn't worthy of my rig at the time.
Funny thing was I was still beating blokes with more expensive wheels in iRacing.

As long as you are having fun. :drivingbanana:

First things first.... En J, you're the worst operator of quotes on a forum I've ever seen :D :D.... Secondly.. I wasn't knocking the hardware, I run a G25 still. It was more an observation that there's 4.5k worth of titan x there alone and he's still just using a g25/27.
