Depends on the car. Well, technically you can shift without lifting but in cars that weren't designed with that in mind (like vintage cars or any cars with an h-gate) you'll get real high revs between upshifts if you don't lift and you'll light up the rear tires when you downshift if you don't blip. If you enable auto clutch and auto blip those problems go away and you can upshift/downshift without lifting and without worries.
Yes!
No clue, I haven't looked at it yet. I don't do much/any offline racing but I plan to check it out at some point.
I thought that's what the Auto-Clutch option was for?That freakin' option -- I don't think I'll ever understand it.
Auto clutch behavior seems to vary. I tried enabling it once when I was using the h-gate to see if I could shift without using the clutch but for some reason it wasn't quite working right, I forget the details but I seem to recall it having very odd behavior when I was stationary in the pits, like it just started pulling away without me doing anything. Imagine if you got in your car and then started the engine with first gear engaged and the clutch out, so as soon as it turns over it just starts lurching forward. Not good. I use auto clutch when I'm using my sequential shifter in older cars and don't feel like lifting/blipping (see my first comment in this post to learn what happens when you do that without using auto clutch).
Until the LMP AI starts a Trulli Train behind the lapped GT cars.
But hopefully that will be addressed at some point because there's a lot of multi-class action just waiting to be had.

Yes and you have to drive the car to the pit spot yourself

Can't recall where i read it, maybe the latest blog, but they aren't done with custom championships. I'm pretty sure i read they have more plans.

We can have all the pit stops we want if the race is long enough to warrant them naturally. Just can't force a pit stop in a short race (yet). Hope that option is added though, it's something I'd really like to have.

Been waiting weeks for a TH8A here. Seems to be out of stock everywhere I look so I wait for Amazon to ship at some point

Whenever I finally get around to buying a new set of pedals a stick-shift will be ordered the same day.

No, it's a add-on from Ricmotech. It's called Short Throw Shift Kit for the Thrustmaster Shifter.
@Scaff has a nice video review on it.

No I meant a plate that makes the stick travel distance shorter, such as the ones pictured here. I'm not sure if @patrickd018 makes those any more though, but you could ask him. The ones I bought from him were of stellar quality. Really smooth.
There's also this:

This whole conversation on the TH8A and the beginning of that video from ISR reminded me to share with you that I've successfully mounted my shifter directly on the Playseat Challenge.
It may not be as good as properly hard-mounted on something more solid, but it works really damn well and you don't need any kind of accessory or add-on. It then folds nicely along with the rest of the chair.
Very happy about it. 👍

I recently got the sequential shift knob for my TH8A and quite like it. Has good weight to it and feels like a proper sequential shifter.

I hope it will actually be available to download that date, not just showing the cars with the download symbol next to them and having to wait one or two more days to actually get them.

Or make your own short shifter.. it is REALLY easy and cheap...

On another note... with the T300 on the PS4, how do you use DRS and KERS now? Before it was L3 or R3 for DRS.
The control window shows the label for KERS and DRS but not mapped to anything...
I have been off this game since before the 1.09/1.10 patches and it has really improved and there are people online racing in the mornings when I have the most time to play which is awesome. Sadly I am really rusty and struggled, but still it is rad. 👍
Hopefully they give us more FOV and seat adjustments in an update soon.

Be careful of the weight of the shift knob. The sequential shift knob I recently got from TM has some heft to it and they specifically state not to use it for the h-gate shifter because the extra weight can damage the mechanisms.

Interesting.. did not know that. The one I use is hollow and hardly weighs more than the original. With the shorter lighter shaft I believe it is all about the same. Good to know though.

Sounds like you should be good then. 👍 The sequential knob is quite heavy, probably similar to an old school metal stapler, so I could see how it could do some damage if it was getting rocked about. The stock round knob feels like a feather in comparison.

Oh another thing I noticed on ps4 this morning after not being on for a long time... the soft lock is not there on the modern Lotus Formula car. (125?) I can turn my T300 all the way around, but I can see the car's wheels stop moving right around where I would expect the lock to be on a formula car.
Is this known? or did I accidentally take my wheel out of automatic wheel rotation mode?
