Hi everyone, I seriously need to know if the ClubSport Pedals V2 and the ClubSport Wheel (Formula rim and GT rim) will be available before June 18 (it's very important). Because, if it's after... I can't have the ClubSport Wheel and Pedal set.
I have the money but I'm from Argentina
, so... I will be in Europe from June 7 to June 18 (France and England).
Thank you very much, sorry for my bad english and ignorance
You're chances are very slim. There might a pre-order before that date, but the wheels will still be on the boat, so there is a very small chance that the wheel be be delivered before june 18, so you can take it with you.

^ That's unfortunate there must be some way around that.

You mean by charging major money for customs fees, or actual theft by customs workers?

Or you could just move to a less corrupt country alltogether... I hear the weather in Holland is nice, or Canada, heck come join us in the U.S. we'd love to have you!

We will see about that.
I'm only speculating, but I think that it is taking so long, because they seem to have a very little manufacturing capacity. They can't do very many things at the same time. At given time, preordering process seems to be delayed only because the website isn't finished.
Only Thomas knows what is really happening.

Anyone see this?
How far fetched is smartphone or tablet as a tach at next years e3 mounted to a csr-e on Forza 5.

I fear MS will make it so that it only works with mobile devices running their Windows OS. At least in the first half year to a year that will be the case.
Also I believe the device should be directly connected to the xbox at that point unless there is a special wireless chip in there that can communicate via their proprietary xbox wireless system for input devices (Xinput). I mean as far as I know there is no data port or anything of the sort on the CSR Elite, so hooking your mobile devices to your CSR Elite won't happen. There will most likely be a stand though. And I think HoiHman (here on the forum) made a very nice stand on his rig.

It will work with ios and android. Admittedly they say they may limit functionality by platform but one can hope for ios support in Forza.
I don't see why you need a data port on a wheel obviously they are using wifi. You saw the Madden tech demo right?
SLI pro EMU on android works on wifi just fine.

Eh, I have just looked at the page but not read it. My bad and I have to apologize for making assumptions here, as an excuse though it's pretty late or early here where I live (4am ish now).
You are right they do say it is available via the "My Xbox" app on other platforms. Which you can deduct from that it communicates via WIFI since the other platforms are not likely to have dedicated Xbox communication hardware. I haven't seen any demo though nor do I have an android device so I never looked up any android related dashboard programs. I do have iHud on iOS though, but that's not for the Xbox.
Anyhow I think it is very nice of them to make such things possible and I am pretty sure there will be enough implementations of this. If T10 makes having dashboard, huds or telemetry possible for us, I really can't say but we can hope for sure.
I wonder when Sony will come with such a thing for their platform, but I highly doubt they will since they have been stripping the PS3 from features in the past few years instead of adding to them.

Update on the CSW on Thomas Blog:
Submitted by Thomas on Wed, 06/06/2012 - 16:28.
Next week the last of the community testers will receive their wheels so that the testing period can start. I wanted to give all testers at least 2 weeks for testing so that means that the embargo date of the Clubsport wheel and rims as well as the Clubsport Pedals V2 will end on June 29th at 13.00 German time.
By that time we also expect that the first shipments of production units arrive in the USA and EU by air shipment. We will make a special launch offer but I will release more information about that as soon as the wheels are on the way so it is 100% sure that they arrive in time.
Basically : Preorder by the end of the month, Special launch offer which is great

Sounds good to me. I think a bundle package at a discount is a smart idea. CSW+A rim of your choice+ CSPv2 for 10-15% off ($80-100).
And hopefully, after this time, we'll get more news, specs, and pictures of the Clubsport Shifter.

Very exciting! The end of June is going to be expensive for me, the pre-order of the CSW (I hope they have an offer on just the base and one rim) and my local telephone exchange is getting fibre optic on the 30th! Which I will be upgrading too

Good news.
I hope everyone gets a nice offer.
Also Rob, what are the speeds of that fibre connection? Just wondering as I use cable here in the Netherlands with 120/10Mbit.
About 78Mbit, however I'll get no where near that as I live afew miles away from my local exchange. UK standard broadband's maximum speed (down the old telephone wires) is between 20/24Mbit and I only get 5/6Mbit.
I think the fastest we can get here in the UK is around 120ish, and that's with Virgin, who, as I live down a dead end road, decided to bypass it completely!
Edit - I also hope that the 'offers' run date to date instead of just being limited to the first batch as I have a feeling I'll miss out on the first lot.

for me it would be a very good deal if they sold the pedals for 200 euros at preorder...
