I'm in but just trying to decide which car to run. Pretty keen to run in the prototypes though

92
I just can't come to terms with these things or find any speed. New wheel and pedals are helping a lot with consistency but just cant seem to find a setup that works for me.

Apologies to Doobs for race 1 and Freezer for race 2 for 2 pretty ordinary pieces of driving. Penalty ballast will be forthcoming if not already assigned I would assume.

Bring on the end of this series and onto the next one.

It's definitely a good community and you can't beat battling in a big field.

It was definitely an overdue upgrade but was trying to hold off as long as possible while getting through house renovations and getting my kart ready to race again. I'd been having issues on and off with the very worn pedals but cleaning the pots didn't work at all. checked it again in the logitech profiler and brake and throttle was still spiking badly all the way through the pedal travel.

Just need a few years of trouble free racing now 😊

That was how I used the g25 pedals and selector with my old Driving Force GT. I had the board mounted in a box and it worked quite well. I did plan to keep as much of it together as I could in case someone needed the set and I can donate it to a new or needy racer. Till then, I can use for  a bit of experimentation. My cousin has mini show cars and a spare shell and he did ask a while ago to setup a sim in an actrual car he can take to his car shows. Could be an interesting project :D

The bodnar adaptor is a likely scenario but I think there are a few other ones available.

96
Thanks for the offer, much appreciated.

I ended up buying a T300 RS GT edition and am hoping to have it by next race but will most likely have to use my Driving Force Pro for next round. Hoping the T300 will be a step up from the aging G25. I am going to try and get the pots replaced on my pedals anyway and just hang onto them as a spare set or if anyone out there has a good set of pedals but a failed wheel base, I can sort something out ;). Just have to hook up my G25 Shifter to the T300 as a temporary measure till I get back to Sydney in November and I'll get a thrustmaster one

Not at all. It was in your data too.

I did get random clutch applications in between as well whereas your data didn't have them. I was in 5th gear, 100% throttle and the clutch applied 20% for almost half a second, went back to 0% then re-applied 10% for 1/4 of a second. Your data, the applications always coincided with coming out of 5th, 100% clutch, goes back into 5th all in a fraction of a second. I suspect it's something with the data import.

Thanks Wally,

Second file worked well. First one mustn't have uploaded properly. Gear selection is the same, randomly drops out of then back into 5th gear and also applies the clutch????? Throttle and brake traces are very different though so I suspect I have a pedal issue. The steering trace looks OK so hopefully I can get away with just a set of pedal pots.

Thanks again

Thanks Wally

Can a generous soul out there send me the aim file from a practice session or race. I want to make sure it is similar. I am running a G25 and am getting lots of weird info from dropping in and out of gear to random clutch applications and only max of 97% throttle. I want to make sure it's not a translation issue from the generated data.

Thanks

Sorry for the early exit. I don't normally do that no matter how bad my race is going.

I am really struggling with these cars and massive inconsistency so when the leaders were coming around to lap me I didn't want to get in the way and ruin someone elses race.

I am trying to work out what is causing it but can't seem to get a handle on it. I can run 3 laps and and all 3 require different pedal and steering inputs. Turn 1 tonight for example 1st lap I use 1/8th of a turn, 2nd lap will be 1/4 turn, and 3rd lap will be 1/8th of a turn again. Getting the same with my braking points too. I can use the same point and 1 lap I'll pull up in plenty of time, next lap I'll barely make the turn then the following lap I'll pull up 20M early. I even noticed once through turn 1 I turned the steering and the car didn't react till about a second later. Has anyone else had similar issues? I am going to go through the aim data tonight but I think I'll change my wheel back to my spare Driving Force Pro to see if the issues continue. I will never run up the front but I am normally not 7 secs off the pace.

Anyway, sorry again and see you next week

102
Sorry but I'll be missing tonight. Have to put a car back together for work. Sorry

103
I apologise for the no show on Tuesday. The family catch up went way longer than normal. Will be back on track next week.

104
I have some family hit town. I'll should be OK but might only be able to make race 2

105
Thanks everyone for a fun night racing and sorry about the first lap in the last race. I just couldn't stop and car coming back onto the track.

I have to agree with Wally's comments completely. I had the most trouble trying to get to terms with the Escort and letting it drift through the corners as it's not really suited to my driving style. Every time I thought I had a good lap, I was miles off.

Whatever the choice is I am just happy to be back in the sim again. I'll work on getting the microphone working for round 1 too.

Thanks again
