It's been so long since I've used my DS3 I doubt I'm faster but according to the times I set with the DS3 I'm still slower with a wheel.
It's amazing how many people though think the wheel is easier than the controller. That's only true for the very best of the best with a wheel, a fraction of a percent. Most people are faster with a controller, easier to handle oversteer!
Try saying that in most forums though and you'll get laughed out of the room. ...Go figure.
Edit: Careful though no bull, I heard a rumor that last academy they only accepted times set with a driving wheel. Makes sense because they have no way of knowing a person who sets a fast time with a controller can translate their skills into using a driving wheel for the last part of the competition.

It's also much more fun and realistic playing the game with a wheel. I don't know how many cars/races cars in real life that you control with pad or stick. I don't care if it is easier to control cars in the game with the ds3, not going back to it

Hey Joe tell me more about this spec racing thing. Has the season already started? Tuning I stink at, but I could get down on some spec racing!

It's the best league going. The official "League Night" is Sunday night at 10pm eastern. Qualify starts on time. Each week there are 3 combos (car and track) and you run each one twice. The second race of each combo is done in reverse order or the first. Each week 1/3 of the 6 parts (3 tracks, 3 cars) get changed out as determined by the top 3 winners in D1. There are 3 divisions. Everyone starts off in D3 and you get promoted if you win. The loser from the higher divisions is relegated to the lower levels. It's very interesting. Don't let the snail logo fool you, D1 drivers are close to immortal fast. I'm currently mid D2 level. Just post on the thread that you want to join. All info in in the first post.
There are other "less official" events throughout the week like parity Tuesdays and Tutoring Thursdays by top D1 drivers which I highly recommend.

Sounds interesting might give it a shot. On the Sundays when we do the F1 races I'm not sure I'd want to race again that night, otherwise I'd be on it for the entire day. What happens if you miss a Sunday?

League night is Sunday night. That's why I don't do anything before or after the F1. I jump back on the game just before 10pm.

I've been thinking about our schedule and a few things dont sit well with me.
1st running Madrid and Monaco back to back seens boring because there both tight street circuits and im not exited about Indy being the season finale.
Id like to have an 11th event to finish yhe season of if everyone's onbored with it, somthing i bit more exiting than Indy like SSR5 would be a cool finale.

I'd prefer real courses and Indy is real - not saying it's the best to end but definitely look forward to racing it. Speaking of I thought it was weird Sarthe isn't on the schedule but there are pretend courses like Madrid and Grand Valley.

I think if we do an 11th race it should be at Rome(forward) because its a tight track with very close racing and I think it would make the season final very exciting

Either Rome or Sarthe 05 are great tracks id vote for .
Actually Madrid and SSR5 are based in real citys Madrid on real streets and SSR5 are somewhat real aswell
