Sometimes you have to remind yourself you are a race.... I guess that's what makes the heart get pumping.

I sat in with Glen today with one his TT at Phillip Island liked good and fast. Love the sound and the dopler effects when it is flat out across the start finish line from the spectator's perspective and it passes from the head on growl snapping to the rear soundtapatalk on an °[●●]° « Last Edit: February 11, 2014, 04:47:26 PM by Flattop » Logged "I refuse to be what you call normal."

I was happily suprised when as soon as my session ended i was immediately upgraded to a Class D road license i was expecting to have to wait until the 21'st to be promoted....I immediately went on a spending spree and bought Bathurst, Phillip Island and the Ruff Porsches The one thing the Porsche did was reinforce my steering problems, i couldn't drive up mountain straight in a straight line. So today i dropped off the Hyper steering wheel and pedals for a refurb, Hyper have new high resolution pots and a firmware update for the USB interface, I'm hoping to have them back in time for Thursdays HistorX round, then you'll see me in iRacing much more if this cures my issues. Hyper run iRacing at their race centre so i'm pretty sure all should be OK.... Fingers crossed.So now i have a few days of sitting around not being able to drive, it's killing me cuz i'm home by myself and i could be getting some serious seat time while SWMBO is away...
