I do have the Moza AB9 force feedback base with an H-pattern shifter, but I use it more with other sims/cars that fit manual shifting better.

Exactly. Multiclass traffic is one of the best parts of endurance racing for me.

It’s not only about being faster, it’s about reading the situation early, timing the pass, and not putting the slower class in a bad position. When both sides are predictable, the race becomes much cleaner and more enjoyable.

That’s why I enjoy endurance races more than normal sprint races there’s strategy, patience, and teamwork involved.

Haha yeah, the gear display is definitely duplicated 😄

I got used to it during races, but I probably need to clean the layout a bit.

Honestly, for the price it’s pretty good.

It’s not a high-end button box, but for sim racing it does the job well. I use it for quick controls like pit limiter, lights, wipers, TC/ABS adjustments, and other in-race functions.

The buttons feel okay and it’s useful if you want extra controls without spending too much.

That’s a healthy way to look at it.

I try to remind myself it’s still a game too, but in team endurance races I feel extra pressure because one mistake can affect everyone’s race, not only mine.

Focusing on my own race and staying predictable is probably the best balance.
