I am at the end of my rope as they'd say...

I'm currently still in the GT Academy and while attempting to set times, my 1.5-2 year old G27 Logitech wheel broke and I am no longer able to be competitive without a wheel. I have an extended warranty, but no Best Buy in Oregon has one in stock............. If there is anyone out there who may be able to "help" me somehow please contact me. My M3 can get me places fast and would be more than willing to drive "dang near anywhere" to make this happen. I have many things for collateral to "guarantee" no funny business is taking place. Thanks in advance to any who may be able to assist.
 
It might be time to start calling Best Buy's in California, Idaho or Washington...

That sucks, I hope you get a new wheel in time. Good luck man.
 


A friend in Salem, OR just posted on my Facebook wall in regards to my "SOS" which I posted on there also. This picture is of a race sim he "just had built" by a friend locally. I am headed there tomorrow with my PS3 to attempt to improve, it's not a G27 but I have seen a lot of the "front runners" posting that they are using this wheel anyways.. Maybe I'll be faster. Thanks to all that have given recommendations for this tough spot !

That sucks. If I am closer, I would help. Unless you want to drive all the way to NY.

Thanks man, my M3 is fast but not that fast :) Seriously, thanks for all the suggestions/help though, it it very much appreciated !
 
I'm up in Gresham and I'll offer my help. But, seeing that you're near Salem, I would jump on that.

PS. I don't have a G27 either. I have the Fanatec Porsche 911 Turbo S w/ Clubsport Pedals.

Thanks for the offer man ! I appreciate it, I "scheduled" an appointment for 10am tomorrow morning to put in a few hours in the above pictured sim in Salem.

SERIOUSLY, thank you for the kindness of your offer ! Very much appreciated!
 
I know what it's like. My pedals were broken since last summer. Fanatec finally responded to my monthly emails, and I was able to repair the pedals with less than 2 days left in Round 1 of the GT Academy. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough time for me to reach Round 2. (I was ranked 520 or so and still improving every hour.)

Anyway, feel free to message me on PSN if you would like my assistance.

Your buddy has a pretty nice set up. I have that same wheel... Go kick some arse tomorrow!

I'll try ! His buddy made that for him at no cost.... He's a welder and has his own company. Pretty bad "arse" I thought :)
 
Good luck with the academy!!! When you are on TV, I can tell my girl-friend that, "Hey I know that guy. Told you it's more than just a video game."
