I too was wondering what's happening on Fridays. Really I'm down for anything, but would prefer something older. These LMP1 cars are killin' me right now :lol:
 
ok so today i bit the bullet, bought a T300rs ... initial impressions... a lot heavier than the G29...the pedals, just horrible, but i was told they were so bought the adaptor for my g29 pedals, the wheel, sorry it feels cheap and nasty, plastic and rubber do not make for a nice feel, but i knew it wouldn't be as good as the G29s leather and brushed alloy one so i have already ordered the alcantara wheel, just have to wait for that to come, ok so the important bit, feel and feedback, setting for setting i would say the T300 feels heavier, i like a heavier feel, the feed back itself feels soft compare to the G29, because of the belt perhaps? the 300 is noisier but only marginally, i wouldn't say the feedback was any better but it is definitely no worse just a little different maybe i will have a different opinion on that when i get a set up on the wheel..
so far i am pleased with it and i think with the addition of the alcantara wheel will make it all the better...
 
Good racing tonight everyone, my first of many more races with Half fast. I'm glad I won that race I ended up having to pit twice because I just didn't have enough fuel to finish the last lap, luckily I had enough of a gap from 2nd to pit again. :lol:
 
Alcantara wheel arrived today... lush... think i might be converted, next on the agenda is a better rig, this Playseat evolution is pretty good but has too much flex in the pedal platform, maybe a mod first......

I will say if you run a Thrustmaster with the "quick release wheel" the Alcantara wheel is a worthwhile upgrade..
 
Yeaa.. lol didn't even knew there was an HFSR forum post on GTP but at least i finally found all of you on here!

I ordered mine today! Should be here Friday.
 
I'm currently happy with my T150 atm, a very good wheel to have...yyes i had my issues with it but at least my wheel worked back again so i don't have any complaints about it... it's pretty much almost the same as the T300 but T150 is belt driven

the 300 is belt driven... is the 150 brushless? (the pic is the xbone version but its the same mechanics)

Right, think it was more in the line of that, but the Xbox version has something similiar to the T300, think it's something with an 'F' in the middle of the steering wheel
 
Freddude
you were using a T80???

Lol yes, I have been using my T80 ever since the release of Pcars. The T80 was my first wheel ever, and I wanted to see if I liked using a wheel before upgrading.

@Hazard: This might help you once you get your FFB wheel: http://pcars.oscarolim.pt/cars

I use the "Classic" settings (under "Configuration") most of the time based on each car I'm driving. Try a few different configurations to see what feels and works best for you. When I first traded up from my T80 to a T150, my lap times fell 3+ seconds in the first dozen laps of so. I can just imagine how fast you'll be running once you get it set to your liking!

Thanks @GUTTERBOY3007, Alex has sent me some settings as well. I greatly appreciate it. I can only imagine I will be researching heavily over the next couple of days on all the settings before my new wheel shows up in the mail. Can't wait to put it to use on track.
