Yeah I struggled a lot with yesterday's combos with my controller, I really think it's time for me to buy a wheel to be honest.
...says the guy 2nd in season points...

Yeah my biggest problem in the Renault was when the tires went away on the left front, braking in turn 1 would cause the front left to tuck under and the car would basically go into a slide.
Several times I went over the boundary on the inside of that corner because the front left lost traction under braking and the car would basically turn right horribly and slide across the track to the outside of the corner.
Tons of fun. And the sound of the car annoyed me
That Kart was a killer on my wrist, tendonitis sucks. Aero was whining about his shoulder this morning. Is it just us old pluggers that hurt?
Am I the oldest in this series? 60 7/12ths. Aero's 54 but looks 70.
Isn't that where you like to be,lol.Does 47 get me in the old guy club or am I out in no mans land?
Mike was off a bit, I'll be 56 in a few months.Right there with ya Aero 54.

I assume this one? It was quite a bit of luck to be honest. With three karts right in front of me my plan was just to follow through that sweeping turn. I entered a bit slower than normal to allow space, but your apex speed caught me offguard. Fortunately I was going slow enough to hold the outside line. It was enough of a moment that I distinctly remember my thoughts however. I'll take luck over skill though, that's racing!
Hey, I whine about a lot more than about my wrist. It's killing my love life, i'm not ambidextrous you know.Of course you're the oldest, that's why you always whine about your wrist, lol.
After all these years and you're still giving me younger than I am, I guess you can still be my bud for a bit longer. But hold on, looks 70? Why is it then that all your ex girlfriends said if you just looked and acted a bit more like me, then they might have kept you around a bit longer
And that Cape character, he's the same age as me, and I think Burnt is up here too. So with Jax that makes quite a few of us probably driving around in some sort of pain.
Interesting how the tyre pressures are so different in the front. I'll play around with them for other tracks, I haven't done any tuning whatsoever, but this might be a good place to start, since I love the car.@Cardahs , 18! I have socks older than you. Just a few older 56, just reminded me next month add one more. Some days I feel 35. Then I wake up and try to get out bed with bad a knee, sore back, and muscles which do not want to cooperate. Could be a lot worse, every day I wake up and get up is a positive in my book.
@FlipJ here is that tune you asked for. FUN CAR!!!!. the back is more stable, you should be able to throttle steer to correct any missed apex's. Just need to change tire preasure per track. Hope it works for you.

Well i have finally bought myself a wheel after a long 5 years of racing with a controller ha! I'll have it ready for next season.
What did ya get?
FYI, I just built a rig for a buddy who's starting out and he got a T150. The wheel is very good for the price but the pedals are like the old Logitech DFGT, just ok and you can't really mod them. If you can find a set of used pedals from the G27 it will hugely improve the set up. Ricmotech sells an adapter (US$20) to use these pedals with your wheel.I got the Thrustmaster T150, not the best but it will do for me.
We have to wait until Sat morning.Are the new combos announced yet?

You can always vote off the kart@SGETI,do you happen to have some FFB settings for the kart that may take some of the the squirreliness out of it,I can't drive it the way it is,I'm slow as it is I don't need any extra help
Oh I did,I just have a feeling it may make it another round or two,most everybody else seems to like itYou can always vote off the kart
