Quote from spanks :Are there many of us that just absolutely hates the NTM on the road courses? I really hope it drives better on a real road race car. My check book is hanging in the balance....I'll either be grabbing a year + the new cars and suzuka or letting my subscription lapse for the first time since pre release.

I just can't tell yet. To judge based on that Nationwide wouldn't be right. However, I think the NTM currently is setting out a very rough new base where a good NTM can be created from. There are so many flaws with it and faults that need a lot of work but it's a great base!

I wonder how long we'll have to wait for the V8 to get the ntm?

Quote from PMD9409 :

What league will you guys be joining for proper races?

Good question. I'm in two minds. I'm going to do the FordGT anyway (assuming it feels okay) and then look for a league or set one up if I can't find one I like the look of. I get the impression we are going to see a million different leagues that are not that populated due to the number of offerings!

Quote from The Moose :I'm proper pissed off at the way we're getting shafted with the so called "endurance racing"

Instead of any endurance racing we get two sprint race series. What a load of bollocks.

agreed..... its rather poor. I can appreciate the fixed series being short but Myers makes an excuse by saying:

Quote :
I have seen some threads asking about the race length of the Prototype and GT open series and why they are not hour plus races and the schedule was created this way to make it more accessible to the majority of the service. It will be our most popular road series this season so we have to approach the schedule differently.

I thought the fixed series was to make things accessible..... really disappointed!

Quote from NSX_FReeDoM :Just trying to find out whether there is something wrong with my wheel, or it's just shitty design of the wheel.

Does anyone else's G27 wheel have this knocking noise when the car is going over bumps? It's quite loud and annoying.

Doesn't sound right to me.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :Can't see what's wrong with that TBH. What's the difference between doing 30 races in a week and 30 races in a season?

too right... I was talking the series choices.... you go for it Yann!

Quote from PMD9409 :Would have also been nice if they could make it to where there is different classes per car. So say you are C class, then you could only drive the GT2, B = GT1, A = LMP2. Simple, yet effective IMO.

Of course it only takes a week to get to A thanks to the silly fast track thing. I wish it would go back to how it was, or atleast every 4 weeks instead of 12.

yeah, totally....

Quote from Gabkicks :Yeah I wish I didnt have to own all of the cars to do multiclass racing :/

The shit part to me is that they did say, when bringing out the Multiclass, that having to purchase all the content was temporary and this would be changed. I guess not any more

That said, the Multiclass is great fun

Quote from Bose321 :Not really. In all years I've never had any of those problems with a G25/G27 or a Fanatec (no problems so far with that).

I am not talking just about myself... I'm talking generally.

Well, I have loads of times and speaking to others too. Not necessarily fan issues but definitely issues. It's well documented that fanatec have had an enormous amount of issues with their earlier wheels so it's wrong to say they haven't.

thrustmaster cant do shit, has always been bad quality.


If anyone is considering buying this, do a favor to yourself and don't.

Well, I think if you look at Logitech or Fanatec you'll get the same thing too. Personally, I've had a slightly noisy fan a couple of times but the overall impression so far is very good indeed. The FFB is superb and although the brake doesn't have a load cell, it's certainly an improvement on the G25/G27 pedals and brake - which you'd expect!

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :So I assume the Ford and the Corvette will compete in the same class?

I think it's going to be the Corvette, the Ford GT and the LMP2.

Quote from Bean0 :Oh, something I've just read on the iR forums.

The 2 new cars (Ford GT and LMP) are going to be bundled in a series with the Vette, so you're going to need to buy that too if you don't already have it.

yup... that's a bit shit

Thankfully, I got them free from participation credits

Quote from DeadWolfBones :NTM feels just as awful as the old one did, IMO.

someone pass him another bottle of whisky please!

I wouldn't say it's just as awful, certainly not on the oval side.

Quote from Gabkicks :soooo what do you guys think? should I buy the nationwide or just chill till august? so i can use the sprint cup car? is the ntm a lot better?

Personally, I would wait until August. It's only a couple of months and I think everyone driving it now will act as beta testers ready for ironing out bits ready for August when the Ford GT comes and New tyre model for other cars too....
