How to start

4
Netherlands
Zandvoort
Hi There everyone, Just a short introduction.

My name is Frans and live in the Netherlands

I consider myself a very green novelist with almost non experience or knowledge.

This I would like to change of course.

In normal circumstances me and my friend would vist a few real car racing circuit in or around the Netherlands enjoy some trackways with our cars.

So the idea is to start doing it online.

So can you please share your advise in what kind of hardware and game we would need to set it up?

Would a PS4 together with Gran tourismo work?

What playseat, steering, shifter, pedals, etc


Any advise is welcome,

Kind Regard,
Frans

Wauw thank you for the reply!

You have a very impressive set up!

That will certainly help me understand what will be minimum requiarements to make a start.

Forgot to mention for what car's (we are a car club) will need keep as baseline:
Honda Accord Euro-R CL1/Type-R CH1
Honda Civic Type-R EP3
Honda Integra Type-R DC2

Ok, got a little further; we need for playing online GT Sport and a PS4

Snag is we don't have all the Honda's like in GT6

Would anybody know if I import one from GT6 into GT sport?

No, it doesn't work like that. GT Sport is its own game with its own car list, and on a different console, separate from GT6.
 
@ATR Katana would suggest Assetto Corsa on PC, it has mods available so you’ll find what you’re looking for easily. Dirt cheap too, but it can be difficult to set up an online lobby and install mods.
