My driving position "looked" good, but I suffered from pretty bad neck and back pain halfway through my first 80min race. So I went and copied the driving position of my own car (BMW E46) which I know is comfortable for hours on end. Worked a treat!
From what I can gather Thrustmaster is also available in Indonesia and the T150 bundle should fall within budget. Adding a shifter will push it over though, making the Logitech best value (as always).
I've seen the prices and the price is crazy for a "brand new" T150 RS Pro non shifter bundle is just costing me almost the same as a g29 with a shifter
Ah, yeah I remember finding some mentions of trigger mods to the Snow Peak version of the Diana P-Five, that should allow for adjustability. This wasn't mentioned on the official website, so I went with the Beeman.
If you want to try simracing, why not buy a secondhand Logitech wheelbase? Locally to me they sell new for €200 and secondhand around half as much. Just make sure you get the model suited to your platform: all work on PC, while Xbox and PlayStation have their own dedicated models.
Thanks for the advice! I've had a look on my local used markets but there doesn't seem to be anything usable on there unfortunately... And new ones cost between 250 for the g29 and 275 for the g923 (which is better apparently?)
The G29 was the PlayStation version and the G920 the Xbox version of the same wheelbase. Then came the G923, a single model number but with PS and Xbox versions.
Alright on that note do you know of any fwd/AWD transverse mounted engines that would be possible if not I’ll just finish paying this car off and just buy another one since I do like this car and don’t wanna get rid of it, just wish it had more power
so this thread has revealed to me there are two camps: those that think a sim rig can feel like a real car and those that don't. I track my ft86 (frs) and I am always sorely disappointed how little even very high end (microcenter with a $9500 setup) feels anything like my car on track IRL. But it is interesting that some do feel it is comparable. ....
Guess it depends on where you are coming from. A DD wheelbase is a massive step up from a gear-driven Logitech, but both are mind-blowing compared to a joystick, controller or keyboard.
Assetto is pretty moddable, so I don't see a problem exporting your vehicle damage data. The problem will likely manifest on the Mechanic Sim side, where I assume a lack of an interface (API) to import Assetto's potential output.
This game really does gaslight you and other players into thinking you’re dogshit at the game, when really there’s all these ridiculous factors that come into play that you can’t control. Shitty teammates, SBMM, disconnections, broken maps that aren’t made for certain modes, etc. I can go on a 30 kill streak in dominate one match, and then the next match I only get 5 kills. That’s how this game gets you.
It doesn't happen often, but I love winning a game that we were "scheduled" to lose. Last night me and a random silver four-stack (3 on comms) were on a five win streak.
Classy and classic
All you need is some coils and you’re good. Beautiful car
So clean and on 135s. Love it
The T300 is priced too close to budget direct drives wheelbases IMO. Start with a Logitech (secondhand if possible) and upgrade to dd down the road.
Is it okay to buy used? Does it lower the perfomance significantly?
Yes and no.
Toyota 86 or Subaru BRZ. RWD with a similar power to weight ratio.
Arnold schwartzaneager
Arnie from Predator or Commando would be 🔥
The A team!
I pity the fool!
Looking at the manual, less than 2 joules of energy is claimed. Which is on the lower end for air pistols.
er zit toch een regenmodus op zo'n hok
Klopt
You look a lot better than the players in my Silver/Gold lobbies.

Personally I was faced with the same choice and went for a secondhand Logitech. Years later I upgraded to a Fanatec CSL DD and never looked back.

Yes, I've seen the Gamo p900 , one thing I don't like is that it doesn't have any rail for sights or accessories...
Aarrrgghhhh, yeah it is all coming back to me now. Every option has a downside.
Best bike I ever owned was an MC-18 SP (dry clutch and close ratio box) with DogFight pipes. Red and white with the tiny headlight.

I get that.
Firstly: welcome to the simracing club!
Do you want a project or just transport? How light does the bike need to be? How much do you have to spend?
yes torque sensing is way better, especially with a mid drive.
It would have cost me €300 extra and I regret not spending the money.
should get a wr
I was about to say WR, but then I realised that the true DRZ was the friends we made along the way.

Moving from a third world country to Europe I had a similar experience.

Yeah, you just warped COD's Matrix. You should've lost when your supposed too. Now they're coming for you!
No jokes, I haven't won since. Last 10 games win rate 0.0 despite a positive personal K/D (1.05).
Thanks, I had the same situation as you and was wondering if the outcome
Glad to help!
