Can't remember if Mark was seriously injured from that... Same thing happened in the warm up too if I remember correctly

actually he walked away fine! lol My favorite part is he was on the brakes at that point.

Probably bracing himself for impact

I'm curious to know what is wrong with the wheel. Touch wood my T300 is problem free, surprisingly because I beat the crap out of it.

Started that it would almost immediately go into cooling mode and release all resistance during a race. So i turned the resistance down to almost nothing and it was alright for a little while. Then it had a calibration failure similar to this; . But that was solvable by cranking the wheel to the left. Now it turns the wheel super fast during calibration and doesn't calibrate in the center.

Thrustmaster's reasoning is that it's out of the warranty period, which is fair. But it irks me because people have nothing but good things to say about the T300rs.

Actually, there have been a lot of T300 issues in our gang. This is one reason to keep manufacturing away from these third world countries where quality control is iffy at best. I am one of the lucky ones I guess, like I said earlier, I beat that wheel like rented mule.....to the point of the wheel itself getting loose on the shaft. The ring is tight, but the wheel moves about a quarter inch. Things are getting worn inside. Might need a tune up. Wow, that almost sounded dirty.

My next step if I take it will be the fanatec wheel and pedals. I don't golf, I don't play hockey anymore, I don't get to fly as much as I like,( you want an expensive hobby, buy an airplane or a boat. ka ching Ka ching). My point being, as a hobby, I don't mind spending a few bucks to make my experience as real and fun as possible. I find my entertainment dollar goes a lot further when you are burning virtual gasoline as opposed to aviation fuel and I get the excitement of racing with guys I am proud to call friends. I know some of you guys better than my "real" friends and I've never met face to face with any of you, except Aero, who just won't go away. Lol.

As for that wheel, that's weird. Gotta be a software issue. Try it on another machine? Could there be a driver update missing? If you can plug it into a PC and hook up to TM website and update the drivers? Switch to PS4? Pedal cord all the way in? Hope you find the problem.

I cried on the inside everytime you let the wheel hit the maximum left at that speed

Does it do that during the race? like if you go into the grass will the FFB go crazy and smash your hands?

USER=234204]@TXAH606[/USER] I Had the same exact issue. I did the below and it worked for a while, only a band aid but I was able to race in a pinch and whip @Mike Lobban "clean Arz." I ended up sending the wheel back. I know you say the wheel is out of warranty, but did you ask them the cost to fix? May be cheaper to pay them to fix than buying a new servo base. Wish you the best of luck.

Hi all , I want to share with you guys that I just try the GT Sport demo in the Nissan GT Academy .
I hope it will work for us because the gameplay is amazing .
It feels like a new game with a new physics( with some salt and pepper from gt6) , about the graphics is not like uncharted for ps4 ( in this game you realize the true ps4 power ) but gt sport has very good graphics too , much better than gt6 .
The sound effects are totally improved .
The track was a new one in Tokyo with a Nissan GT-R. I played with the t500rs and it felt excellent . Except for the arcade pedals nothing like fanatec pedals
I Can't wait to play the full game .
Next time I'll post a gameplay video

That's someone else's video, but the same behavior. That's what happens during the calibration sequence, but it goes into an infinite loop until you physically grab the wheel and turn it the whole way to the left. I'll take video of the new behavior tonight, it's 10 times worst. Slams full speed left, then only a quarter turn right, then calibrates with the top of the wheel about 20 degrees to the right.

you make Pcars more and more appealing!

 

[Lessen]

Erik,

Just my 2 cents. If you include a written description/details of what you are working on or even better some live or even post-production commentary, that will dramatically increase the interest level of your videos. Otherwise, most just see a car lapping. It could be me or Mike Lobban's sorry butt were it not for your avatar. The point being, we know you're fast. But we don't always know HOW you're fast. THATS what people will watch for.

Otherwise you'll likely get more of this... Just sayin bud. 👍

My point exactly

Never give up the secrets!

The only way a secret can be kept between two people is if one of them is dead.

 

[Lessen]

Well, this got sinister quickly!

​

I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences ...yet again, to the people of France and anyone else for that matter lately who has been a victim of a senseless act of violence committed by people with nothing better to do than hate!!! Makes me sick.

Makes me appreciate our little community of racers from around world and the friendships we have built here even more.

 

[Rednose58]

Banners posted in the Combo Thread. Thanks @singlepaddy

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Anyone racing tonight?

 

[gtr3123]

@Lessen I understand what your coming from I will try to post more videos with more commentary in them on how I take the corners and what to do in different situations.

 

[JCH8r]

I like fast cars, too bad I'm out this week.
