Hello everyone,
This is my first post here and since I didn't see anyplace to 'Introduce Yourself' I figured I would do that here as well.
I started Sim racing in around the year 2000, I started with NR2000(?) then moved on to NR2003, GPL, Rfactor, LFS, etc. Until life got in the way 9 years ago I did all of that with a non-FFB BRD Sim-Pro wheel. (Remember them? LOL) That wheel was built like a tank and I still have it but the 'mounting' depended on a plastic shelf that you sat your CRT monitor on to hold it in place, I had to get creative with that issue later.
Fast forward to about a year ago I started watching Jimmy Broadbent, Super GT & others and had been following ISRTV for a while just to know what the latest was even though I could not partake. Well, I was recently gifted a PS4 and the fever took hold again so I bought GT Sport and needless to say the controller left me wanting. So I did what all who share our condition do, I ordered the above-mentioned wheel.
I haven't even unboxed it yet, and I have never used an FFB wheel, ever. So what do I need to know? Any advice for a complete FFB virgin? Pedal mods? I'm planning to get a GT Omega Apex wheel stand at the end of the month as well.
Thanks all.
