Hello all,
I found GTplanet looking for GT7 tuning guides and tips. Started playing racing games 2024. I was gifted G29 wheel and pedals for Christmas. I play GT7 Enshrouded, COD, Guildwars 2 and in the future looking to purchase other racing sim games.

Hello everyone, I'm glad to be part of this amazing community. I found GTPlanet by searching infos about cars and tuning settings for GT4 (my favorite and only Gran Turismo). I'm from Brazil and a lot of people still playing GT4 in PS2 or emulators, this game was part of most lives when comes out back in 2004. Like always I play using the old and gold Dualshock 2, never fails 😂
Other games I enjoy: Shadow Of The Colossus, MGS, God Of War, F1, Grid, Dirt, Elite Dangerous and various indie pixel art games!
I'm here to study, read, ask (obviously hehe) and help the community to grow. I already saw a lot of people helping each other in the forum and most of the answers that I was looking were back from 2015/07, so amazing.

Greetings to everyone and sorry if my english isn't so good hehe 😅

Hey guys! I am very excited to be part of this community and the sim racing community. I found GTplanet researching the Logitech DD11 setup using drive hub. I'm fairly new to all of this, but I have been playing Gran Turismo since the first ever game came out, yikes lol. I'm located in Alberta Canada, its cold 7 months out of the year so sim racing for the winter months was the thought process.

My current set up for PS5

NLR F-GT Elite
NLR ES1 seat
NLR Direct Monitor Mount
Logitech Pro DD11 (PC) using the drivehub
Logitech Pro pedal
Logitech RS Shifter

My plan is to build a PC for summer 2025 and run a triple monitor set up. I can't wait to get started and learn from the wealth of knowledge that this platform has provided!

Happy Racing!

Hi Folks,
Thanks for having me.
I’m in Scotland near Glasgow, and have just re-ignited my gaming career.
Used to use Xbox way back which I played with my young son (he’s now 29) and started gaming with a Sega Megadrive in the early ‘90s.
Dived back in after a lengthy absence about 9 months ago when I got the bug again after seeing a mates set up.
I went for PS5 slim, a Playseat Evolution PRO, & Logitech G923 for playing GT7.

Stumbled across this place as I’m looking for guidance regards upgrading my brake pedal, and the consequences of doing that with my Playseat, which is good, but seems limited due to build quality IMO.

The seat is on a ‘rectangular’ type tube, and the pedals on another which slides inside. A manual screw clamps one on top of the other with a hand held system. Under braking the try to slide apart, separating the 2 sections which I have partly resolved, but if I upgrade pedal pressure required this may become an issue again.
Wondering if anyone has experience of this?

Thanks

Hello! I found GTPlanet from a Facebook group post. I’m from the United States of America and currently compete in SCCA time trials and autocross. I started playing racing games about 25 years ago. I do have a Logitech G29 steering wheel on PS5 but mostly play on controller for convenience. I enjoy all kinds of games. I’m looking forward to continue scratching the competitive itch while my current racing career slows down while raising my family.
