That is indeed the CSW with Formula rim, they got it from Thomas when he visited the studio. I wish I had that game at my disposal for testing. :)

Ya that's looking to be a great racing gem. I'm praying that GT6 will shape up to be on a similar level in terms of graphics and physics/FFB so we can all enjoy the great variety of regular street cars Gran Turismo offers, with solid online gaming. So far, no racing game can touch that.

Don't expect better graphics on the PS3. So be ready to pay 600 for a new console minus the game, which was the introduction price of the PS3 if I am not mistaken. At least I remember paying that much for mine. ;)
 
Laser scanned Nurburgring ?!? SOLD !!! I want this game. I should buy a decent graphic card :)

That's the Nurburgring GP track which is already in Kunos produced Ferrari Virtual Academy. And I believe all the tracks in FVA is laserscanned- Mugello, Nurburgring and Fiorano.
 
Definitely PS3 can't process that kind of moving imagery, I guess I'm hopeful GT5 will be supported through updates and DLC, and that the grand vision that Kaz has for Gran Turismo will be released on the PS4.

hi can anyone tell me if it is possible to use a ts500 with clubsport pedals for a ps3 ,many thanks dell

Not possible. Same impossibility as a TH8 shifter with a Fanatec wheel.
 
i am pretty sure that ps4 will emerge into the market way before gt6... you seem to have forgotten how long we waited for gt5...

No no haven't forgotten, but I've also witnessed many things around the world change once in a while. If Sony is smart, they are putting lots of pressure on PD.

I had the same question a few week ago, and was wondering if anyone can make an adapter to have other brakes work with T500 on PS3, but apparently it's impossible. If you're interested you can jump back in the thread to page 289, and good man by the name of Amar gave quite a few specific reasons and links that explain it in more detail. :)
 
Logi, I'm using the TH8 in both sequential and H pattern with my CSR E. I thought everyone knew about interface one. Awesome device.

I thought he said he wanted to stop making them due to time constraints? So hence I don't see it as a solution anymore except for the people who got one. Maybe I read something wrong though.

Omg thomas wtf have you done to the encoder switches??? they used to have a beautiful dark chrome finish:grumpy::grumpy::grumpy:

This was one of my main reasons for getting a csw..i know its a bit silly.

So if i get one will you put the chrome encoders on my wheel.....i will give you one extra euro:sly::sly:
 
I have been wondering. How do you guys clean your Alcantara and keep it looking and feeling new (great color and softness)?
 
gloves :) so there is no sweat from the hands on the alcantara and after many weeks it looks and feels like it is brand new.

Eh... it's a bit late for that after having spend a good month using the wheels intensively now.

I tried to clean it with a damp microfiber cloth which helped, but I am still not satisfied completely. =/


Edit:
Was just looking at a webshop here in the Netherlands that sells racing gear... the parts. Nom nom nom. Everything from better Fuel Pumps to H.A.N.S. systems. :P

I can't wait until misdeeds get their hands on the CSW. An adapted quick release system for real wheel rims is top of my list.

I wouldn't get my hopes up too soon, especially since Thomas already responded to this with an answer that spoke of many technical difficulties. I am sure more people will try to cover this (im)possibility in their review.
