Sim racers - what are you running?

Assetto Corsa Legends GT Classics looks fantastic, thanks for the tip!

Yes good physics is subjective, for example I did not like suspension physics in old GTR2 and GT Legends, but Power & Glory feels great..
 
Cool. Also check out rFactor 2. Should be a whole bunch of similar content for that and you may like it's suspension/physics more perhaps.

If you're gonna go with Assetto, get the Ultimate edition cheap on a key site and also install the following to get the best out of it:

I love the design, the customisation you can configure to the button colours & text and the fact it looks like a real racing steering wheel (more so than any other wheel).

I dislike the size (width) & weight, no thumb rotary wheels, tethered connection and the price.

I have given it some more thought and I think this is a play to get rid of stock before new wheels are announced.....on the 1st Dec.

I'm going to wait as I think there will be a v2 or a new wheel replacing the FPE.

Well, I guess it addresses my earlier criticisms about thumbwheels and accessible funky switches. God knows what I'd do with three of them and 9 rotaries though :D

I'd like to see how 'cheap' they could do a 'VR edition' rim with no screen, no lights and ditch 3 rotaries and the centre funky switch. Then again, perhaps I'll make one myself, as it's about time for a refresh.
