~@Gimpymoo.
You got that multi screen sorted ?

Yes.

The immersion is just WOW, it really does add soo much to the experience. Very very happy.

 

[Gimpymoo]

Do you have the replay file?

 

[Gimpymoo]

I wish iRacing made replay files for all races available to download for 24 hours after the race.

 

[Gimpymoo]

slippery slope my friend...

LOL

I can vouch for this man.

 

[Gimpymoo]

and is there an offline demo of iracing u can download just to try it

http://www.iracing.com/3-for-1/

3 months for $12.

The game is all about online racing so an offline demo would be pointless.

For $12, EASILY worth a shout.

If you do sign up, ask Graveyard for his username and put him down as referrer and share the love.

Spectating iRacing is great fun, especially if watching people you know.

Wishing your Bro a safe tour (as it possibly can be). How long is he out for?

Tepic, if you are around in the afternoons, I will gladly do some open practice sessions with you. PS - I suck.

 

[Gimpymoo]

I might sell my wheel stand pro what my wheel and pedals are on now when I get my obutto, I was planing on keeping it to use downstairs on my ps3...

Could I request first dibs?

yep donington park and a rescan of silverstone..

hope they scan a BTCC car while there over here...

After reading that, there is officially a party in my pants.

Since when?

Then again, the new Donnington is a mess, plus they got rid of the Dunlop bridge before they ran out of money when they got the F1 race.

I live on the other side of the motorway to Donnington, I will drag their laser around on my back I have to.

I cannot stress how much I would cream myself if they included a BTCC series in this game. One of my favourite racing games is still TOCA 2.

Graveyard, what is your name ingame?

Also, going back to one of your earlier posts, how much better is the DFGT wheel compared to a G25?

 

[Gimpymoo]

Andy, the LEO Bodnars are out of stock till the end of the month anyway according to here:

[Gimpymoo]

Anyone running Windows 8 CP and has force feedback working on their G25?

Thanks.

 

[Gimpymoo]

delete.

 

[Gimpymoo]

Anyone know much about this?

Think I am going to give GTR Evo a run out... feel like I am cheating on iRacing though but I love the Simbin titles.

What will I do when GTR3 hits - lol

 

[Gimpymoo]

I've never played any of the GTR games, but nothing I've ever played comes close to Iracing now, the more I play the more I love, I still feel some of te physics are better on RF2 tho, but Iracing on a whole is just awesome.

What bugs me about ISI/RF is the reliance on the community to make the game decent.

Yes, it is nice they make this giant sandbox for us all but as a total package, it is severely lacking in my opinion.

 

[Gimpymoo]

heres the pics of my rig as asked for, its still abit of a mess with wires and stuff, im also still playing with the monitor config as ive just changed them around abit so i only see 1 bezel in on the middle monitor...

Congrats, that looks awesome.. very comfy, for general purpose gaming even too.

Very tempted myself after seeing that, need to weigh up the practicalities of the wife/kids using it when they want to use the PC

Could always build a basic rig for them

 

[Gimpymoo]

I just bought myself a Fanatec GT3RS wheel and CSR Elite pedal set...

I'd like to try it out.... but it's so much money

LOL - Wut?

3 months for $12

[Gimpymoo]

i seriously want a BTCC car, ive not kept up with it for a long time, but the toca games were legendary for me and we as brits deserve 1...

I agree.

Imagine if they incorporated a 2 race setup with compulsory pitstops?

 

[Gimpymoo]

Helmet ready, race suit ironed, boots polished, patiently waiting for the iracing site to come back online so I can hopefully gain a bit of SR today.

Gravey this is all your fault

Another one who has seen the light which is iRacing?

 

[Gimpymoo]

eh up mate were have you been?

this wheel stand pro will be up for sale mate, I remember you say you wanted first dibs, you still want it???

Logitech being donkeys regarding Windows 8 drivers which means no FFB which means no racing

Tried a few races, felt like I was dragging a deer carcass under my wheels.

I am loathed to install a secondary O.S for one piece of hardware. Sure, I respect it is my choice to install an operating system in Beta but I do not think it is too much for a company like Logitech to be supporting it.

Got back into Race 07/GTR etc for my touring cars fix what with the BTCC season just starting. I can play it with a pad without it seeming too arcadey. Totally forgot how much fun these games are. Hosting a server for mates with 20+ AI cars simulating the BTCC season/tracks is just hilariously good fun.

I am pumped for a BTCC series in iRacing.

Regarding the WSP, am definitely interested, thank you for remembering me. Send me a trust message

I would not be able to pony up till the end of the month though if you can hold on, 2 kids and a wifes birthday in the same month Could get the WSP for Mrs Moo as a birthday present but do not think it would go down too well - lol

See my trust though, definitely want it. Does it have the shifter attachment? Not fussed either way though.

 

[Gimpymoo]

ive just got givin race 07 and ive just started using it loving the old touring cars, you recommend any mods???

How about all the tracks from the BTCC season

Extract the .rar to \steam\steamapps\(username)\Race07\

Also, if you want some fun,
