Sim racers - what are you running?

This seems like a useful place for post: https://ir.corsair.com/news-release...-acquisition-fanatec-leading-brand-sim-racing
Fanatec about to go bankrupt but it's looking like Corsair is going to swoop in and pick it up on the cheap...

thanks for this. An interesting read.

Fanatec aren't go bust I don't think

The second sentence literally says "which will ultimately result in CORSAIR acquiring Endor if the transaction is approved under a German law governed insolvency process" which very much means they are about to bust, but Corsair is going to swoop in

I think being taken over/bought by Corsair is the best thing that can happen to them in their current situation. Their old CEO and founder is responsible for the current bad financial position so any "bid" for him to save them surely can't be taken seriously by the German authorities.

Yep, seems like Corsair is going to take over Fanatec

I’m thinking of the software they’ll force you to use. Corsair’s is even worse than Logitechs.

Looking at getting some pedals (slowly plan on upgrading from the g29) my budget is around £300. What do people recommend? I was thinking the Fanatec CSL Elite v2 however with everything going on at Fanatec i'm looking at the Moza SR-P set along with the upgrade kit.

8nm Boost pack from Aliexpress delivered and fitted.
My goodness it's strong. My arms were shaking after 3 laps, had to turn it down

Apologies if this has already been posted. Has anyone got a link for this boost pack?

Any recomendations for stream deck holder to 80/20 rig? Or just get a mate to 3D print my own?

What displays are some of you running? I do play GT7 on PS5 but plan to take up Assetto/iRacing abit more. I was leaning on ultrawide but the black borders on GT7 is a real immersion killer.

Just stop playing GT7? You aint gonna get immersion with GT7 tbh. Unless you drive cockpit view (Which nobody does on GT7) there is zero immersion.

I had my PS5 hooked up to my UW monitor when I played GT7 (all those years ago) but now fully committed to PC. Your best case scenario is a big 48 or 55" TV.

Look on etsy for some ideas for your mate to make you one. seen quite a few for streamdeck

Ordered the Fanatec Clubsport V3 pedals, should be a nice upgrade over the regular CSL pedals. I am looking forward to having a clutch and load cell brake

 

[ShiWarrior]

How do you attach a thrustmaster T300 wheel to a playseat challenge ?

 

[Uncle Petey]

There should be a couple of holes on the plate that line up with the ones on your wheelbase.

 

[ShiWarrior]

Ah OK so I need to buy bolts then

Looked it up , m6x12mm

Cheers
