Check out craigslist or ebay, you can always find G25's for cheap (maybe even G27's now). Got mine for cheap a long time ago, back in my sim racing days, I would think you'd find these even cheaper by now.

Of course I have one, it's required like a wheel and pedals!

Looks like those practice laps paid off! Great stock FR-S race on Laguna Seca!

Do you have BT headset? If not, I have a spare that you are welcome to have.

yep that was fun... I am certainly a bit off the pace though.
time to practice more... let's try to make this a regular thing! say maybe Weds or Thurs nights?


I'd like to suggest an agenda for the racing sessions.

I would propose default of Racing Soft tires. Though for particular races we can change the requirements to say, Comfort Hard for real fun slip n' slide racing.

1. Laguna Seca. BRZ/FRS/86 only, stock or very mild tuning. Say 450PP limit to accommodate what we probably each have, a mildly tuned car to reflect our own actual cars.

2. Laguna Seca. Showroom Stock BRZ/FRS/86, Sport Hard tires, basically car as how you bought it, no performance mods. (oil change OK) (cosmetic mods like paint/wheels OK)

2. Laguna Seca. 500PP limit any car.

3. Other tracks. We can discuss PP limits or go free for all. My favorites are real tracks like Nurburgring, Spa, Cote d'Azur, Sarthe 2009.

of course this is open for discussion/change...

Sounds good! Thursday nights work best for me. I like the idea of honing my skills on Laguna Seca since I don't race it as often.

As far as other tracks, I love Spa, but I believe that was a DLC track, so not everyone will have it with just the game itself.

Good racing! I have a headset, I just have to find it. Haven't used it in quite awhile. I couldn't hear you guys so I just went to a stock frs on sport hard tires. Hope that's what everyone else was running.

I'm free pretty much whenever to play, just have to figure out when I can bust out the racing wheel. Around 6pm will work for me.

Sorry I had to bail after the race, had to eat dinner.
