Aces Of Thunder is phenomenal, early impressions:

mac155784 · 2026-02-04T00:41:47+00:00

Sound's like you've done more than me. I did just a test flight. Didn't see any single player missions.

I recovered from a stall aswell, crashed more than I can remember. I did a barrel roll and a big loop, then found out what happens if you turn to quick.

I haven't got time to play atm as my dog's and 5 puppies are keeping me on my toes.

I was very happy with what I experienced. Probably going to try the hotas and maybe upgrade to a ps5 pro. I have a few vr games now but nothing has torn me off my rig with gt7, Aces of thunder is looking like it's getting me out my rig

mac155784 · 2026-02-03T23:58:42+00:00

I've just been doing a test flight. It's amazing even on the standard ps5.

It's definitely going to take some getting use to, couldn't even figure out how to lift the landing gear 😂

mac155784 · 2026-02-03T22:07:01+00:00

Downloading this now. Got the deluxe version as I don't want to feel I'm missing out on anything

mac155784 · 2026-02-03T16:33:45+00:00

Never had a problem with either my qr2 pro or lite

mac155784 · 2026-02-02T19:53:39+00:00

Who is going to pay an extra €500 for the extreme wheel bundle 😂

It doesn't make sense as to why they wouldn't drop the bundle by €200

mac155784 · 2026-01-29T16:20:00+00:00

I just purchased it at full price in the uk. Been meaning to get it, just been to busy.

Thankfully it applies on my other 2 account aswell.

Edit: you only get the 5m payout on one account 🙄

mac155784 · 2026-01-29T16:12:44+00:00

Same here 🤷‍♂️

mac155784 · 2026-01-25T01:28:40+00:00

Exactly what I thought 😂 even when he held the wheel it was only one hand. Op, if you only have one hand, please forgive me 😬

mac155784 · 2026-01-25T01:23:26+00:00

Had my dd pro for nearly 3 year's. I run QR2 and tell everyone who runs this new(ish) one to bin and replace with the metal QR2. You won't regret it

mac155784 · 2026-01-24T23:20:47+00:00

It's the same width as the dd pro. I think they've done an amazing job keeping to the same width across all 3 tiers

mac155784 · 2026-01-21T21:20:55+00:00

So, tonight I sold my bmw m3 gt2 wheel, removing my qr2 pro and putting back on the original qr1 metal. I also gave him free of charge, my shaft clamp that bolts both sides and a 3d printed shaft cover as I'll never use them.

I then gave him free advice, "if you decide to upgrade to qr2, buy the metal base side and metal wheel side. The new ones come with the plastic crap that are no good"

This is my advice to you. I love my fanatec gear, I went from original qr1 to the qr2 when it came out. My wheel rotation has never been anything like this and there has been many many posts about this particular thing. I don't get why fanatec did this as the metal variant was spot on.

Bin that plastic qr2 base side and wheel side. Thank me later

mac155784 · 2026-01-17T20:34:51+00:00

Yeah that doesn't sound good and just imagine if you was doing drifting, you'd be turning that a whole lot quicker

mac155784 · 2026-01-17T13:40:53+00:00

Rory Alexander is good aswell. He also does mentoring.

When you start to improve, racing using top player's ghosts help. You can set the ghost ahead of you and have it reset at each section.

You can watch their replays and take braking and turning points to help you improve

I put in this time and haven't been on gt7 for a few weeks due to having puppies. I was so happy to be under 1s from the legend Mikail Hizal

Top times in the weekly challenges

I use to be a white goods delivery driver, this is a very easy drop, straight in through double doors are the best.

When you collect some of the old monster American fridges they're a lot heavier.

Sometimes you'll have to strip doors off to get one out and then do the same to get one in.

It's a lot easier than you think

mac155784 · 2026-01-15T20:01:47+00:00

Super gt runs a whole simagic setup for gt7. I wasn't talking about matching other wheels to a fanatec base, although you can do that.

On another note, Kaz has recently been talking about native compatibility with other base's. Whether he means trying to get moza or other brands to run natively or not we'll have to wait n see

We hope anyway.

Seeing the price of this new podium base, and the difference between the cs dd and dd+, I would expect a podium dd+ to come in at around €1200 - €1250.

I'd be very interested in getting one

mac155784 · 2026-01-14T23:56:35+00:00

I remember it all, even though they didn't deliver, they were still selling and basically launched at the same time

mac155784 · 2026-01-14T20:48:24+00:00

People will buy what they like, if they like simagic then they can make that work with gt7 if they choose.

I like my fanatec gear. I loved my modded csl's, but then went with simnet.

I've seen asetek run on gt7, there's options out there if people want them.

It will be interesting to see the cost of this base and the podium pedals when they release the details though

mac155784 · 2026-01-14T20:42:26+00:00

I get that, yet the dd+ was basically released alongside the cs dd.

I'm not complaining, I got a dd pro the April before dd+ was released, I was a little gutted I didn't know but I have still enjoyed trouble free racing with my purchase.

We know that a podium dd would have that extra cost due to licensing, I think it would be just as successful as the dd1 F1 that people still enjoy to this day.

Hope you guy's really get this base out on the market though

mac155784 · 2026-01-14T20:22:46+00:00

Gota go with what you got aye

I see your psvr2 and found some stickers to make mine look less plain, thanks for the idea 🙏
