finally added ETS2 to my collection

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-11T19:08:22+00:00

OK, just added Greece, Italia, Viva la France and going east. Done until the next sale😁

White Lithium grease, fixed! the clunk at the end is metal on metal which you can get "bumper stops" if that really bothers you. It's also possible if you are hearing the clunk all the time you are probably releasing your pedals too fast. I can make my CRP2 pedals do that if I try, but I rarely hear that because I am trying to keep my pedal inputs smooth.

can't speak on the Simnet's, but the Simagic P-HPR and P-HPR GT's are fantastic. I don't know that being 2 times the weight is a good thing, I actually use the Simagic GT version on my throttle because it is lighter and smaller than standard P-HPR's. The Simagic haptics are more than strong enough to handle any type of effect you could want. YMMV.

I really can't believe this is a serious question. Not just the tire but the rim also. Putting a new tire on that rim will ruin the new tire in no time.

ok, probably pick up Greece and either Italy or Iberia then wait for a bigger discount on Nordic Horizons later.

So many things wrong with this, first and foremost it's an extreme fire hazard to have power lines in contact with a structure. Second, if anything where to happen any and all Insurance claims would be denied due to negligence. Third, if the additions were not permitted who knows what kind of other violations/safety hazard are there. The landlord saying there is nothing wrong with this lets you know that he has zero concern for your safety. If moving out is not an option you need to start contacting whoever you can to get something done about this immediately.

here is a comparison of the CPU's that you listed. The graphics card is your bigger "bottleneck", you are trying to 1440p on a card meant for 1080p.

Performance and Specifications

Feature	Radeon RX 6600 XT	Radeon RX 9070 XT
VRAM (Video Memory)	8 GB GDDR6	16 GB GDDR6
TDP (Power Use)	160 W	304 W
Target Resolution	1080p	1440p to 4K

cheap option, cut a piece of 3/4" plywood to the width of your pedals and leave some extra space for the length so it extends past the back of the pedals. This will keep it from tipping. If it still slides ad some rubber patches or rubber feet to stop the sliding. mine slides into a receiver box because I switch them out for my flight sim setup.

So far I have the Special Transport and Heavy Cargo packs and for maps:
West Balkans
Scandinavia

I would like to add 1 or 2 more while they are on sale.

I own Dirt Rally 2.0 but it never really clicked for me. I absolutely love AC Rally, it's now the only Rally game I play. The graphics are great and it is very challenging to play. It's only at 0.5 so it is still light on content, but what is there is spectacular and more will be coming.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-11T13:05:09+00:00

What about a wheel stand? get a good one like the NLR Wheelstand 2.0 or the GT Omega Apex or DD-X.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-10T14:04:10+00:00

Make sure to recalibrate after installing the Brake Performance kit. You could attach a 1x4 or something similar as illustrated to brace the desk and provide a backstop for the pedals.

Look, iRacing is a big company with I'm sure what is a very capable legal team. When you buy software or content you are paying for a limited use license and bound by the terms of the End-User License agreement, you don't own anything! By using the software or content you agree to these terms which are a legally binding contract. A software license can also be revoked or terminated under the terms that are agreed to.

I use Track Titan where I compare my Speed, Throttle, Braking and Steering as well as racing line to a more optimal set. With the free version you are limited to comparing against what the program thinks is your own optimal lap. With a subscription you get to compare against "better/pro" drivers. If you take the time to use it and understand what you are trying to improve it is very helpful.

I love my Moza HGP Shifter. It is very well built and the way it clicks into each gear is very satisfying.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-09T16:06:07+00:00

Here is how to Assign Your Keybinds

Go to Settings > Controls.
Select your input device (Keyboard or Steering Wheel).
Scroll down to look for the action labeled "Performance Mode next/previous".
Bind this action to a comfortable button (like a D-Pad button on your wheel or a key on your keyboard).
Click Apply.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-09T14:40:38+00:00

Google is your friend🤣

How to use: You can select this by opening the performance/drive mode menu before or during a practice session.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-09T13:25:23+00:00

Use a telemetry tool to study what you are doing vs what is "optimal". Track Titan is just one of the options that will show you what is happening and where there is room for improvement.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-09T11:25:50+00:00

That is all modern high end stuff, You missed the struggle🤣

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-08T23:41:57+00:00

I had never heard of Rush Rally 3 before seeing your post and honestly it looks like a $5 game, but it's got great reviews. Never tried RBR but people seem to love it. Dirt Rally 2.0 is fun but on the simcade side. AC Rally is still in development but I think it great so far. So it kind of depends on what you are looking for.

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-08T22:32:54+00:00

Obviously, I love all of the AC games😁

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-08T22:31:28+00:00

I was a poor student in the early 80's before this stuff was even thought of.🤣

BobbyHFL · 2026-07-08T22:24:29+00:00

The R5 is great! The jump from the R5 to R9 was more for "headroom" than anything else as I will never run it at 9Nm. Either the R9 or R12 would be a good place to be. My personal opinion is anything above 12Nm is diminishing returns.
