Way too loose. I was involved in an endurance race at Road Atlanta last year in pouring rain (on semi-worn 200TW tires). It wasn't close to as slippery as things are in GT7 (related to what I've experienced so far).

I finally didn't get shafted by a roulette ticket!!! Won a GT350R. Excellent timing too, as I'm up to the American Muscle Menu. Also golded the IA License last night, very happy to win a Alpine

Did you sign up for our league?! Head to the other thread if you're interested. I think we have 6 drivers so far.

I suppose it could be. It seems realistic to me that if you go around a hard turn at like 60 you will end up off the track or doing a loop. Although I suppose if anything it errs to the more difficult side. I played Forza the other day and went around a turn in the dirt at like 130 with no difficulty at all. I just turned it off I couldn't. As much as I like the open-world and damage modeling the driving just put me sleep after being spoiled from GT7. I personally have never felt anything as good. Maybe iRacing on a DD wheel is more realistic if you want to pay a monthly subscription... I have enough subscriptions in my life already but I would love to try it if someone else was paying for it.

Speaking of roulette I figured out that the quickest way to get your daily roulette ticket (and an easy albeit boring $22500 on top of it) is to take a car that goes 220mph or better and just run Race X which is 18mi long.

I admittedly haven't raced in real life in the wet, but I thought that low-gear loss of traction, especially in sections where water pools, was pretty accurate. It reminded me of when I had the stock Primacy's on my BRZ and would need to be careful getting into 1st/2nd from a red light on a rainy day with the tire spin feeling.

Hey I bet that couch is more comfortable than the scam of a gaming chair I got at Costco for $200.

They do, is a hit or miss on availability. Is good for casual games, but racing not so much. Is kind of stiff so I tend to slide off at times.

From the review, it's great beginner sim racing seat. Plus when you're not using it, you can fold it (w wheel set) and put it away.
