I got lucky a few laps and got mid 1:13’s, but averaging 1:14-1:14.5
Using Toyota 86
Thanks! Luckily I think I know where at least a half a second is. And the rest I’m blaming on my car or something.
 
I was able to post 1:14.5 in the Lexus but I’m really struggling with this track overall. I just can’t get the feel for it.....I’ve done some mock races and I’m still searching for best passing zones as well. Wednesday’s race will be interesting.
 
Panic question: my Thrustmaster t300rs wheel has developed calibration issues lately. On start up of PS4, when the wheel does it's calibration thing it now takes many attempts to calibrate. Used to be full left, full right, center, done. Now it's; full left, little right, full left, little right.... Many times. So far it does calibrate, but I'm afraid that may not last. I've tried a couple of things suggested by Thrustmaster; permanent fan operation on, disabled "keep active in sleep mode". Any input out there? Thanks.

Take a video of it for reference. Then reach out to thrustmaster again with video evidence.

There is the Dwight Shrute disaster mode

Meaning, you can buy a new one off of amazon, and then box up your old one and return it to amazon. It’s like getting your warranty used.

@Neutty of your two suggestions, I'll try #1. I've always felt #2 was the reason that things I buy are as expensive as they are. LOL.
 
Couple of suggestions @CANOWORMS1

1. Unplug your wheel and pedals while the PS4 is shut down. Leave unplugged for about a minute then plug everything back in, per the directions in the manual.

2. Download the latest Thrustmaster firmware to your PC/Laptop, then update your wheel.

I've tried #1, but I'll do it again. I've also looked into firmware updates, and it seems that's only possible on a PC not a MAC, or have I missed something?
 
Confirmation is open for this Wednesday.

Id like to be put on the auto confirm list as well, please. Thank you
 
I should be there
 
@Nick Cannella said "2. Download the latest Thrustmaster firmware to your PC/Laptop, then update your wheel." I have a MacBook laptop and haven't found a link to Thrustmaster firmware updates for Mac. Do you have any suggestions?
