absolutely.. I was OK with Formula R in PC1 but was awful in that race last night.

Yet Suffolkboy was on a stormer, maybe it's hit a miss the bug?

Edit, quote from mod on the PC2 forum.

Yes, FC/FR Slicks are beeing investigated.

@AitchPattern which issues on Group 5 Cars / Classic Vehicles?

It must be certain tyre models not had any issues with temps in touring cars I've only telly driven frookie open wheeler, I prefer tin tops usually and the slower stuff that slides at that

I've wanted a new wheel for ages, and this damn game is the straw that broke the camel's back. This should be with me by Friday.

That for a Fanatec?

I'm currently using the TM PC RACER wheel. I've heard TM have a partnership with Sparco. Hopefully they'll release a new wheel soon.

More than I want to think about

DAIR · 26 Sep 2017 at 15:29

Worth it though right?

Why are the LB DD kits so much more expensive than the offerings from other companies?

"Worth" is a subjective thing, but I really, really love it. Combined with VR (which PC2 excels at in a massive way) it's a very immersive experience.

One reason is that the Leo Bodnar system uses a Kollmorgen servo with a much better encoder which is a LOT more expensive than the Chinese-made MiGE servo that the OSW kits tend to use.

Good answer.

Oh and an update from my Formula Rookie career, I switched to stable setup at Snetterton and managed to actually make that last corner and get through the race. On to the Euro leg now.

I'm waiting to see what the Fanatec DD wheel is like

Looks interesting can't see it being <£1000 though. More like £1300 + the rim cost.

So I take that as a yes lol.

god, this game is incredible

I never imagined it to be this good. Just blapping around Snetterton in the Rookie Formula, 110% AI, minimal HUD, Jake Spades FFB....it's an absolute joy to play.
