Welcome to GTplanet mate, that is a fantastic setup you have there. I hope it benefits you during any of your racing games. Last time I owned a wheel was in 2007(for my ps2).

Hi everyone gt lovers. Name is Manuel, I’m from France and been enjoying gt7 for 180 hours so far.

Found this site through online search
Always played racing games as far as I can remember (yeah that senna f1 game for mega drive was a blast!)
Played for a year with tgt2 but now I own a logi g pro
I’m not a sim racer but a gamer, so I play lots of other games (tlou,gow…)
I’m looking for advice and exchange on hardware and news

Hi everyone!

1. I found GT planet on Google when looking for GT7 information.

3. I started playing racing games around 1994 on my aunt's Sega, but got really into it when GT came out on the PS1.
4. I don't play with a racing wheel.
5. I enjoy open-world games and OG platformers such as Crash Bandicoot.
6. I'm looking forward to reading about other players experiences and hopefully getting a few hints and tips!

Hi Chris. Thanks. Yes I already checked the forum. Some really nice contents.

I would say gt7 is my favorite but 1 and 2 remain in a special place in my heart

Welcome man, I was a Crash Bandicoot fan starting in 1998. My first ever game was Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back. I do not own a wheel now either. I'm scared to get another one because last time I used it for my ps2, I pressed on the foot pedal so hard my foot started cramping up and I was on pins and needles. I started playing my first racing game in 2002 which was Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit II. It's a cool game where you can enter events and race with the AI or you can run from the cops. There's a mode where you can be the cop and chase down the AI opponents. Enjoy your stay here.

I'm Tom from Canada. I found this site while looking for suspension tuning info. I started playing the original Gran Turismo and it's still my favorite series of games to play. I use a Logitech G29 with a PS4 to play GT7.

Hi all - brand new member here.

How did you find GTPlanet?
I found GTPlanet doing searches online for help on about 5 billion questions I’ve had getting into sim racing
Where are you from?
The state of New Jersey in the USA
When did you start playing racing games?
So I have played racing games since Night Driver on the Atari 2600 but I was never into sims until recently. They were too intimidating and I was never a huge gearhead like a lot of my friends. Here I am now in my 40s rocking a manual WRX, and waist deep into sims…neck deep incoming. I’m only a year into this at this point.
Do you play with a steering wheel? If so, what kind do you use?
I am current using a Fanatec GT DD Pro 8nm base with CSL Load Cell pedals, but hoping to upgrade pedals this BF. I’ve got a ASR 6 rig coming in the next few weeks.
What other games do you enjoy?
I’ve always been a huge gamer in general, but honestly sim racing has taken over like 90% of my free time. That said I’m playing Dragon Quest 3 Remake right now and I love it.
What are you most looking forward to doing in the community?
Learning. The best part of hobbies and joining a community is all you can learn. Hopefully down the road I can help someone too eventually.

See you in the forums and on the track!
