Quote from Jakg :

The shifter isn't built well, but I think it's simply because the person who designed it never used a car gearbox and expected it to be used like a PC Peripheral, not like a real gear stick.

Mine went all crappy on me - I took it apart and found a small black "ring" which I could find no use for - took it out and it works 110% now.

Thanks, I must remember this one for when it is out of warranty.

Quote from TAYLOR-MANIA :

Ah i see, so atleast you can get it fixed then...

I actually kind of broke my pedals the other day when I took the pedals off to place some washers underneath the clutch & brake... I didn't realize how much I tightened them up & when I came to undo them again, because I put it back upside down (wider end at the top), i rounded off the screw head!!

Only thing I can think of is to weld another screw head ontop and use that to get them out! Bugger

No further questions M'lud!

Oh, and don't forget to test SO5 with mandatory pit-stop.

Any particular car?

Quote from TAYLOR-MANIA :

Things to do when your'e G25 is broken...

try to fix it?

Not when it's still under manufacturer's warranty!!

Funniest is 20 AI's in the UF1 on SO1r (South City Classic Rev), just watch how well they take the chicane NOT!!!

The AI are at their worst in the XRG, they can't drive it for toffee!! Stick 20 AI in the XRG on FE3r (Fern Bay Gold rev), the first corner is a beaut!! First time not too bad, every other time round utter mayhem!

Try a field of 20 AI one in each type of car, sit in the slowest (UF1) and watch the chaos around you, mostly caused by the UF1.

A field of each road car 2 AI in each type or a field of track cars is worth watching also.

Logitech, please fix my G25 soon :banghead:

Just before Christmas I purchased a G25, sadly it was DOA and had to be replaced. Didn't get it til' Jan so that was a bummer. Now, May, my 'gearbox has failed', i.e. H shifter, when you put it in 2nd it drops into 6th then 5th then neutral, it's all over the place. So this one as gone back as well.

Have I just been unlucky or has anyone else had problems?

BTW It hasn't been subjected to rough treatment, I cherish it.

Personally I find sticking to racing the low powered cars better to learn in... reason is you have to use the correct line to maintain a good average. Try XFG to practice FWD and XRG for RWD.

snip... comes with 3 pedals.

Are you sure about that? When I look at the images on Amazon, it only shows two.

I'll treat that remark with the contempt it deserves.

You could always use the virtual instrument view when using the MRT.

Quote from ImportFantasy :

Lmao.I pull the bar and it presses the button :P

Yeah but, no but, yeah but... how do you attach it to the shifter console?

I zoomed right in on pic, but I can't see anything holding it.

momom momom MOMO When he is 5 years old he'll get an S3 license for Christmas.

Cute, looks like he's looking for the horn !!

Logitech G25.... nothing to add !

I've done a spreadsheet showing AI Pro vs WR vs Me and my % difference to WR.

It is only for XFG at the moment, but could be extended to all cars.

If anyone wants it it's here laptimes.zip

Quote from nihil :

The answer is no, by the way.

You didn't need to add that, this is the Over 30's thread, so most will know what a 'rhetorical question' is !!

Quote from Tisza :

Yeah i use it for braking points, but i dont follow it at turns. I use it until I start to know the track.

i dont follow it at turns either 'cos I normally go off into the gravel !! :dunce:

No further questions M'lud !!

Quote from Riders Motion :

I doubt this, if you look on the pictures he's burning the front tires, not the rear ones!

Who's a little Sherlock Holmes then

Quote from Racer556 :

what's with the LFS cars up on your wall? kinda silly, but it still looks good I'd do it on photographic paper

Well spotted.... the easy answer is I could never remember which car was which when I first stared, so that was my prompt !!

Anyway, let see some shots of the workstations you guys play err sorry, work at.

Or even another thread there, 'What's on your wall' ?

Er..... I see more training needed (3rd pic). He shouldn't need to be looking at the shifter to change gears. Please don't let him out on the servers until he has this basic level of skill down

... that's a bit harsh, he is only 6 months after all !! :eclipsee_

Here are pics of my grandson in training !!

I might be (one of) the oldest on here, but I'm training an up and coming star, Harry my grandson...
