Hello

[Dark SSide]

Hello everyone, my name is Josh and I am from Toledo, OH and have loved the GT series since GT4. I recently bought my first wheel and pedal combo, thrustmaster Ferrari F430 Force Feedback Racing Wheel. I actually purchased it because I was hooked on the F1 2011. Since this purchase I have since found out that with the latest update on GT5 this wheel no longer works. Not a big deal, I am ordering the T 500 rs combo pack with the shifter this week, and purchasing my first sim rig as well. I will be doing PC racing on iRacing and GT5 and F1 on PS3. Hobbies are things that keep me close to home now with two young children. Fish keeping has been a fun, but without going to 600gallon+ tank I have kept everything I wanted to when I started. I have had a few successful show cars/trucks in the past but now really want to get into sim racing and hopefully get my kids into karting soon.

^I see what you did there.^ I guess I should given an explanation of my forum name. First show car was an Acura RSX-S, then went American with a Trailblazer SS, and everyone harassed me for going to the "dark side" and since it was an SS I came up with the Dark SSide, then deserted them all and purchased an E55 AMG, plate was mi55ile (missile) with 55 pun. But dark SSide stuck so I use it as my forum name. Now I'm just a boring family man and sold all the toys and just have a DTS as a daily driver. But looking a used S65 AMG come spring, 600+hp, and 700+tq in stock vehicle makes for a very good daily commute.
