Assetto Corsa / Re: Racer Introductions
« on: February 08, 2018, 11:09:19 PM »
Cheers boys and thanks for the warm welcome..

gawaterman - Dads name was Brian Mullins.  Orange Speedcar 21 and then black speedcar 33 at Speedway park.  Dad has a serious accident at Speedway Park in 86 that essentially ended his racing days.

rooshooter - you gotta love the old HR's.  Mine was bought brand new by my grandfather and as I said, was my first car...  lots of great memories in it but unfortunately I don't drive her much these days.  Hoping to race it again next summer..




I'll certainly check out the F2004's next Tuesday...

Thanks again guys.

Hiya chaps

My name is Paul - I'm 47 and I live in Adelaide with my wife of 12 years and our two daughters 9 and 6.  I'm an Electronic Engineer and work as project manager for a global oil and gas research company.

I come from a family of racing as my dad raced Speedcars at both Rowley and Speedway Park for many years.  I got into karting in my late teens and early 20's for a few years.  I then spent some time engineering/restoring/modifying my first car, a HR Holden - which I've still got.  Buying a house put the brakes on karting and playing cars and so I found my (budget) racing fix with rFactor and a Logitech GT wheel.

Today I race mainly in Assetto Corsa but sometimes throw on Dirty Rally.

Up until recently my rig consisted of a 80/20 type chassis with Sparco seat, Fanatec CS base, BMW wheel and pedals along with a triple monitor setup.  Late last year I changed over to VR which has really renewed my sim racing interest again so I'm now in the process of putting together a OSW setup and re-jigging everything.

Looking forward to catching up with a few like minded guys on-line for a few racing sessions..

Cheers

Paul
