Wow. Unbelievably good with the newest 721b firmware. I have *never* used a wheel that really felt like a real car. My last 2 cars (Honda S2000, BMW M6) are modeled in-game, and I can tell you they feel *real*.
I am now able to effectively determine my adhesion limits and make corrections *before* they become visibly evident via yaw rate. No other wheel I've owned has been fast enough to do this effectively. My G25 was always playing "catch-up" and I was actually quicker with FFB turned off.
Not with this baby. I do turn the FFB down in-game to 50%, because the weight of the wheel then matches almost exactly what I feel in my M6 (the S2000 was a bit lighter).
This wheel has transformed all my sims: Forza4, GT5, rFactor, GTR2, iRacing, Simraceway and NetKar Pro. They aren't games, they aren't just sims anymore.
They are now *tools* to enable me to push the limits and learn how to drive better. I've been to BMW's driving school in Spartanburg, and have been racing off and on since high school (with my dad in a Schnitzer BMW 323i, for those who remember what those were!). And what I'm feeling through this wheel is damn close to what I'd expect from a real car. The only thing now missing are the G forces.
Way to go Fanatec. My power brick may have been DOA, but this wheel is the best thing to come out of Germany since Michael Schumacher.👍👍👍
