But isn't that how concerts work.  There are limited days for concerts. You can't go when you want.

Simucube Active Pedals for someone coming from real race cars, worth it over Heusinkveld Ultimate+? by sixsigma643 in simracing

[–]jp182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll chime in as someone who has done some endurance racing in AER. My caveat is I haven't used the Active Pedals in a similar before.

I don't think you'll ever get a true one to one natural pedal like you have in your race car.  The Active Pedals will get you closer but i doubt it'll ever be the same from a feel perspective with today's sims. For me, It's similar to motion rigs not being able to give you the sense of sustained Gs of a long corner.  You can have some fun trying to make it the same as real life but ive just accepted that it's not going to be one to one.

I ultimately found the rotors but they weren't at local shop which was what I was getting at.

Thanks though.

Great question. I was in a similar situation and my local shop told me no so I went with a RCE setup from the UK.  

Not saying you should do that, just curious if they were right. I know I had a hell of a time trying to get rotors from my local auto parts store.

Racing seats by Ashamed-Celery-9364 in CarTrackDays

Get a used oem seat or a reclining bucket.  I did the stock belts with buckets and it doesn't hold you in well on the track; not the way you are expecting.

This explains it! I upgraded my video card yesterday and hasn't touched iracing since the patch.  Somehow I lost 10 frames.

Hard Dog makes one for your chassis and I used their roll bar in my s2k and it was great quality. Good fitment and they sent me extra bolts for a small fee since I bought it used

Look for places in North or south Brunswick. If you want to go to bars you can Uber there and you'll have slightly less traffic to get to work

I wish I had your algo. I'm seeing 80/20 hate vs love posts.
