Out of curiosity, how many of you use a wheel? I've tried racing with a controller when I'm too lazy to bring my whole setup on to my desk, and I find it darn near impossible to even keep it on the track.:lol: Any of you that use controllers, I don't know how you do it, but you make it look easy.
I use a controller. It even died on me in the middle of our post-race races. :lol: I never even thought about buying a wheel.Out of curiosity, how many of you use a wheel?

I've tried a Fanatec, but I have to have it in 720 degree mode to manage anything and it wasn't very securely mounted. In full 900 I can't catch a slide to save my life.
I can drive just fine with my G25 in GT5 so I'm not sure why Forza is different. But in GT5 I have trouble steering with the controller. Probably just down to what I am used to
The main problem I have with the Fanatec is it tends to injure me when I am too rough with it, there are too many protrusions to catch my fingers on :?

So where is the race going to be this week? I was almost going to suggest Rally di Positano. Almost. Instead, I would like to put up for your consideration Hockenheim. Well, one of the shorter ones, National or short circuit.
Sorry, my bland attempt at humor didn't come across as I had hoped. :lol: I know there are no pits.The Problem with Rally di Positano is that there isn't any pits and it will be needed on that track or else it will be the slowest race in history, due to everybody will most probably crash in the first turn .
That will be a sad day. Any other time I play online, it's never quite as fun. But maybe we can get some of these after race series ideas going. Historic, NASCAR, and whatnot races.Matt2000 said:You might be wondering how long Flemons is going to keep going for. Me too. When it starts to wind down I'm hoping to plan a final 2 hour race (it could work with a pit lane), and the winner of this race will get the 40 Pintos.
