Heeey whats up guys ?

I have a super good news, a friend managed to repair my old G27 :D
Therefore, I've tried Assetto Corsa and especially Project Cars on his PC with the wheel, and for short :
Awesome, beautiful, one hour of pure simulation !
I've try the Megane RS3 on Brno, R18 TDI on Le Mans, Mclaren F1 on the Nordschleife, Silverstone with a SuperKart and Sierra Cosworth on Bathrust.
I want this game !!!:nervous: but now way with a PAD :mad:
The question is, PS4 support the G27 with Project Cars ? Please says yes :bowdown:

I miss you guys, GT6 Crcr, G27 and simulation games too :indiff:
 
'ello everyone!

How's it going?

I'm sad to hear that Project Cars seems have quite a lot of bugs and issues. After the delay in November I hoped they would have had most of the wrinkles ironed out by now. It's kind of in its infancy I guess, but still disappointing. Apart from being mostly race cars though, your descriptions makes it sound just fantastic! The GT3 league in my imagination is putting me in trouble here. :D

Like mephi, I'm itching to go racing with you guys again. So much that I actually again contemplated buying into a Fanatec setup to be able to go into Project Cars too - before coming to my senses and buying a camera instead. :P
Because I know myself - I can hardly drive with the Playstation controller. Even the forgiving Driveclub have me struggling. :(

I did, on a whim, buy into Dirt Rally on the PC though. However, the need to upgrade my graphics card is starting to become a problem. It feels like the successor to Richard Burns Rally, which was the best rally simulator I'd driven, so it has lots of potential. Rally is by its very nature a kind of a lonesome form of racing, so it doesn't cover everything. :)

How many would be aboard for a bit more racing in GT6?
I know I've asked this before and that the network issues in GT6 are bad and a discouragement. So is, to me, not having a working headset on the PS3, but the racing in our league have always been top notch, and I miss it. 👍

A sad reminder I found online: 60 years ago the most horrific accident in car racing history happened during Le Mans. It made Mercedes retire from racing for 30 years. The link includes horrific pictures, and this video is very graphic. Wikipedia has a safe for life version of the accident with more information. The safety of today's racing has not come cheap.

Side note; I'm sad the #30 Porsche was bumped out of Karussell and into a barrier during the Nürburgring 24h. It was in the lead at the time and had a very good pace. The first eight hours (!) of the race was very entertaining this year, I believe at least in part because of the speed limit.
Now I put my hopes in Porsche in the Le Mans 24h where they seem to have the pace.

PS. Off topic: If anyone didn't know of it or see it, I recommend you call a couple of mates, pop some popcorn, bring out the beer, and sit down and watch the finally released, crazy over the top, 80's caricature, short film Kung Fury:


(I hope the link works for most of you. In Sweden we have to use SVT Play to see it, so I really can't know for sure. Almost 10 000 000 views makes me think it's the correct link though.)
 
Yesterday I went online on The 'Ring for some casual driving. After a couple of laps a danish gentleman joined me and we did quite a few laps in BTRs (he was training for a league), and I must say the force feedback has been vastly improved in one of the updates. Screaming down the Döttinger Höhe actually felt like going really, really fast. Not exactly floaty, but suitably unpredictable little movements of the car. It was nice. :)

It's always annoying when they sell games full of bugs, leaving the testing of the game to the players who paid it. Unfortunately it seems to be the habit nowadays, but i have to say that Project Cars' situation isn't as tragic as someone finds it, based on my experience with it so far. Of course it needs work on it, and improvements, but it's quite enjoyable so far. And a patch is already out on PC and XB1, now should be PS4's turn.

I'm in, really missing some racing with you guys. If we can arrange a day, maybe we could send messages to the other guys via PSN.
Some weeks on Project Cars made me realize that GT still has its good amount of strengths, even compared to next gen games: the online section and its community is absolutely fantastic (apart for some annoying lag issues), the racing with road cars can be a lot less chaotic and enjoyable, cars and tracks lists are great, and so on. Since GT5 came out we take some things for granted, but it's only when you switch into other racing game that you realize how much you miss some things :).

Same here, rooting for Porsche in the Le Mans 24h. WEC is really developing as one of the most exciting categories in motorsport, despite being endurance races.
 
Porsche! :D
Was anyone there, or has anyone been to Le Mans? How is to watch live?
I enjoyed this years race very much, more so than last year's race, as it was actual racing for the over all lead for at least 16h or so. Great fun, even if I only had the in-car streams to watch (Nürburgring 24h was actually much better in that regard, and they had the best live timing I've seen). Thankfully Radio Le Mans is does an amazing job keeping up the commentary during the whole race. I assume, as I did sleep some. :)

OK, as per suggestions, I'll make it "offical": This Wednesday evening, 17/6, we'll try to drum up some drivers for a pre-season warmup session in GT6 for Clean Road Car Racing. Come one, come all. :)

Damn! I'm afraid I can't make Wednesday. Hitting the road in real life already. As of weekend I'd be available again. So there'll be another season then?
 


Hello CRCR family, what's up ?
I'm back in da game. I've bought a G29 :-)) Dirt Rally and Project Cars
Just look this Vid, AWESOME !!! Rain Master in action ^^ (sorry for the quality, the vid is from Playstation Share)
I've spend 5/6hours on Dirt, it's a really good rally game.
Just message me if you bought it, and if you wanna play with me :)
 
So... Is this thread on its last legs, or should we start it up again and continue to use it, even if there's not much racing going on at the moment?

What do you good gentlemen think?
There's a new GT on the far horizon, and there's Project Cars. Is that game still a thing?

My wheel losing support hit my online racing hard, sadly.

I'm thinking of starting a thread/group-thingy on the improved PSN instead/as complement. How many are still on the PS3 only and might not be able to read such a thread?

@mephistos62: I haven't driven much DiRT Rally as my computer is pretty old. :guilty:
(I don't have it on PS) How do you like it after spending some more time with it?

Cheers, fellas!
:cheers:

I'm now on PS4, i've sold my two PS3 and my G27 :/ i feel alone :guilty:

Dirt Rally is just amazing, sounding cars are perfect, the handle too. My english is too bad to describe very well but if you can, buy it ;)
not talking about Project cars lol, simply splendid !

Just look at this, my favorite car into my favorite track, a bit approximate. I expect you my friends :cheers:

I'll post a picture of my homemade Playseat :)
