Righteo, well at least it is some information, lol.

How id love to go their but it must be mental busy as well.
Are any GT Planet forum members attending?

Thrustmaster show Darin their shifter and Thomas gives him a job.

It's a cut throat buisiness this sim wheel malarky.

TM must be spitting feathers, I doubt ISR will get an exclusive from them again lol.

Anyhow you got a good guy there Thomas, pity I'll miss his hardware reviews.

Couldn't you find a position for Jessica ?

Well I for one could think of her in many positions... but I dont think my wife would like it very much... and it would be I who would get in trouble

I just can't wait for a better shifter to match the wheels. Feels like I'am playing with a Fisherprice toy shifter. If only my G25 shifter worked with my GT2.

Well if you set out to buy the CSR line then you must be looking for Xbox Compatibility, which wouldn't be featured in a Logitech wheel.

I have no interest in Xbox, purely PS3.

The new Fanatec wheel gets a lot of air time in the new ISR video.

It looks good!

Then the Clubsport wheel would be a lot better of an option. If you were considering the CSR Wheel, then the CSW should be around the same price range, and if it's supposed to be a lot better than a T500, (which I know is a fact) then it should be MILES away from any Logitech out now. Especially since it has to have the adjustable wheel settings that made a big success for Fanatec wheels.

I can tell you that Fanatec wheels are definitely worth the money. I know because I have been enjoying mine everyday since I got it.

I've asked that before but I just want to be sure. The CSW>CSR elite (for pc users). Right?
Other question for Thomas: How many wheelrims models will be available at launchdate?

Right. Nobody knows how many rims will be avalaible at launch. I'm hoping they announce all the details of the CSW next week at Gamescom.

ZSPaulus · Aug 12 2011, 9:58 AM #712

Im waiting for the CS shifter and the CS ebrake aswell..

Nova21 · Aug 12 2011, 4:10 PM #713

Okay I didn't know the CSW was supposed to be the better wheel. I'm still a little confused with what little info has been released on these wheels. Either way I'm waiting for the release of the new line of Fanatec wheels before making my purchase.

Thanks for clearing that up guys.

Mr Latte · Aug 15 2011, 7:27 AM #714

Thomas this is for you...

I like this one:

Almost there!

Mr Latte · Aug 15 2011, 2:01 PM #716

Thats rather excellent actually.

Still annoyed I couldnt go to the show.
Would of loved to of gone met up and bought Thomas a nice sample of Cologne's finest, Kolsch.

DaveTheStalker · Aug 15 2011, 2:11 PM #717

Neither of those are playable on mobile devices

. Hope it wasn't anything major...

Pharaoh 117 · Aug 16 2011, 10:21 AM #718

Still nothing? Come on Thomas!!!

Caz · Aug 16 2011, 12:56 PM #719

Whoa!
new fanatec cockpit

handbrake is visible here

In the picture with the CSP angle adjustment it looks like the Hall sensor board on the gas is covered better and the connector comes out at an angle now. Much better than coming straight out like on the current model. ( or at least mine from december)

They've been selling CSP's which sensors are covered and also using brass bushings probably for months now. At least I have seen people posting pictures of their pedals which look like those. So nothing new here.
