Weird leg problem with new pro gt wheel

[Punjab]

Maybe it's just old age, but I just got my first steering wheel (logitech gt) and after using it for a few days I've developed a really painful right leg. Anyone else experience this when you first used your wheel? It's almost like a sciatic nerve problem I had once that goes from your back down your right buttock down your leg to your numb foot. I thought it was from working on my car in the garage but later when I went to play GT4 again I noticed that it was real painful from pushing on the gas. Is it just me or has anyone else experienced this?

No

It's better to see a doctor then GT Planet about this problem.

Seems you do not stretch your legs enough.

This actually used to happen to me when I would play while wearing a belt. My problem had to do with me not having good circulation flowing from my right ass cheek.

maybe its the seat?
but yeah, best to get checked by a doctor

OK, thanks guys. I went to the Doc and he seems to think it's a pinched nerve. But maybe it was caused by sitting on a ottoman that was pretty hard for a couple of hours (it's so fun it's hard to stop ). I'm hoping to use a seat from an old MR2 soon so hopefully that will solve the problem.

Yeah more cushion wild do fine. I use Playsteats Evolution chair. Really comfortable sure after few hours in it you want to get up and stretch your legs but no pain or numbness what so ever.

And by the way, good thing it's nothing serious with your leg haha
