Nice one Dion, should see some more popping up soon.
 
Where did you get yours? I'm hoping I can find one in a store somewhere so I can cancel my order with Amazon. They are still telling me it will ship the 22nd.





Of November.
 
i got mine from dicksmith electronics in australia. However i had to order online as they dont stock it in their shops.
 
I now hate you for stealing my dream.

But really, It has a clutch??? Wow. :drool:
 
Hmm. Of all places it is only available in Australia right now? Logitech still hasn't updated their site with a release date.
 
I paid AUD $446 delivered to my door. (im somewhat "in the middle of no where" so my best bet was to get it online.
 
Thats a pretty good price considering they are supposed to retail on Australia for $499.95 AUD, and thats picking up from a store.

Did you look further into that site that was offering it for $370 AUD Dion? Sounds kinda fishy.
 
^that's not very nice lol^ Whats wrong with australia

Nothing against Aussies. I'm just wondering why it is only out there right now considering there are much larger markets?




OT: My mouse is moving up the screen on its own...hmm..:lol:
 
lol that always happens to me must be a laser mouse thing...

Anyway I just rung harveynormans,EB and dicksmith and all stated that it costs $670! and you had to order it in.I managed to get the harveynorman guy to offer it to me for $630 but thats still $300 more than the dfp on launch!
 
woohoo! I just found this http://www.gpstore.co.nz/Hardware/1518730.html so i can get it for $590 delivered to my doordtep in 2-3 days I'm still $80 short though...time to mo some lawns

If your in NZ this is the way to go especially if your in auckland you save $80-$110 of retail and get it delivered to your doorstep.
 
So what do you think of it? How's it feel? How's it's response?
 
Anyone know anywhere in the US (perferably a nation-wide store. I.E. Best Buy) where they're available?
 
Pako the wheel is superb, pedals, FFB, steering everying. Its way better than the DFP and the cars are easyer and better to control. I really love it and i belive its definetly worth it. Such a solid well made unit.
 
Steering wheel is in a bit "italian angle" ,but very nice setup.
i will try to similar but foldable cockpit.
 
awesome stuff...im definetly gonna get one as soon as i have dosh. How is the clutch...is it super light? or can u feel a friction point well playing games like Lfs

The clutch has a good stiffness. It isn't that light, but compared to the brake pedal it is very light. Gas and clutch are nearly the same. I'd say they are a little stiffer than the DFP's. No force feedback with the clutch, so you can't feel anything. May need to add a bit of a deadzone to the clutch, it begins to engage immediately. I've played it with GTR2 and rFactor so far and both handle it perfectly. Make sure you have the FFB set to -XX% in rFactor, or it'll try steering all the way to right or left lock when you turn.

I'm not sure that heel-and-toe is going to be very easy with it. I've never did it in real life so I've been messing with it here. You about need shoes, but then it may not be comfortable (think wearing shoes and using DFP pedals).

Wires also have a potential of becoming a mess. It has power, USB, pedals, and console wires all coming from the wheel.

As for the wheel itself, its very smooth and quiet. No zipping, just a bit of a whir when you steer fast. What may be more annoying is the shifter clicking when you go in/out of a gear. Nothing a turn of the volume dial won't fix though. 👍

My biggest gripe is the lack of a reverse gate.

95/100

It has a reverse gear, its push down :)
 
Well, I feel stupid. I tried pushing it down to see if it would go further to the right, I didn't think that just pushing it down and going into the sixth gate would do it.
