Which seat did you go with? The recliner came with the the slide.

I did call them about my order and took a couple of times to get through. I waited over a week and it didn't get shipped, and when I called them it was because the seat in the colour I ordered wasn't in stock and they were waiting for new stock. They just switched the colour for me and shipped it all out next day, but I did wish they'd let me know sooner.

Hi there, the problem I had with my 27inch screens was more a screen issue because the back of my screens are not flat, more a cresent curve and different brackets moving from a Hyperstimulator setup to TR. Because the TR has a large flat plate to mount the screen I required a little more clearance which I didn't need with my older setup. I collected those bolts this morning so I will be able to show some pics soon....

As for the after 2 damaged TR ones, I went up to Racer Industries and bought a proper Sparco one.

I had that same issue. Had to order some spacers.

Have you tried VR before? It's cool but I wouldn't want to be doing race nights in VR.

The recliner seat is still fine I can't imagine an office chair will be any better, but you could spend more and get an actual race seat. The recliner seat was on sale when I got everything which is mainly why I went for it.

Hey GB!

I quite recently upgraded to a Trak Racer and CSL DD.

I went with the TR80; didn't personally see the need for the 120. The 80 is super solid and comes with the shifter mount included. I also got the reclining seat and the free standing monitor stand. The seat is okay, nothing too special but it does the job. The monitor stand is super solid so don't worry about the sides sagging. I also just got triple 32" Samsung G5's and they line up prefectly. I got the older 144hz model which was on sale for $309 each a couple of weeks ago.

Wheel plate just depends on what base you have. I got the side mounted Fanatec one for the CSL DD. Looks like their TR ONE wheel deck has the most flexibility if you wanted to mount an existing wheel and upgrade to DD later.

Looks like my lap times wern't that terrible by the end, just my ability to stay on the track  :o

Cars feel nice here. Nice flow and only one slow corner!

Hoping you had no ballast when you set that time on the practice sever Wally! Fun and fast track but was a second slower than you.

Thanks for signing me up Wally, I was just about to do it! I'm not sure I'll make tonight though, had a wisdom tooth surgically removed on Friday and I'll still pretty spaced out

Well done Chris! Less numbers than usual but had some very good close racing every round.

Thanks again for the effort in organizing it all Wally. Always appreciated.

MAEL!!! Where are you??? You better come back for this season!

12
Not going to make this round unfortunately as I will be away.  Enjoy!
OK, depending on how many turn up, I may postpone this round for 1 week if we don't get enough racers to make it worthwhile.

I'll be around but could be a good idea if Freezer and Dietmar aren't able to join

Selling my old Fanatec stuff after an upgrade. Thought I'd offer it up here. Could do a discount if someone wanted a few things. I'm on the Central Coast near Gosford. Guessing posting would cost too much.

GT Ultimate rig with triple monitor mount, keyboard tray, and shifter mount: $500
CSL Elite Wheel Base: $250
CSL P1 V2 Wheel (New): $150

Have two sets of pedals:
CSL 2 pedal set (New): $100
CSP V2 pedals: $250

I found that earlier haha. There's that one sweeping fast right and I got it slightly wrong and killed the car

Glad to get a win, but race 3 was awesome racing.
