Does this count as corner cutting?

xD

 

[Mobius 1]

Nice save there. If the simulation was more accurate you'd be driving the rest of the race on square tires.

Has there been any word on if PS3 accessories will work with PS4?

I'm wondering if a Logitech G25 or G27 will work with the new system.

I'm wondering if a Logitech G25 or G27 will work with the new system.

I don't think anything has been said, but seeing as the PS3 uses USB with normal HID protocol, as did the PS2 for that matter, I am not worried at all.

next race announcement soon

How is G25/G27 quality compared to the highest spec Fanatec wheel?

next race announcement soon

Can we do Nurb 24hr, performance matched tuned V12 Vantage vs tuned R8 v10 in honor of the awesome start to the Nurb 24hr?

I would like that. I think going for premium cars is better for most of us.

I absolutely suck at nurb with the DS3 though, lol

I was thinking about something more funny but why not

We can do a crazy cool down race after the main one. I will benchmark the cars today.

Let's do a Caterham race for fun. It will be... fun.

I bought a WheelStand Pro (awesome product), so I will be armed with the wheel from now on. Which probably won't improve my mediocre racecraft but it's nice to want things.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ: Rules and Regulations​

Additional rules:

Always make sure at least one pair of wheels are inside the white lines! Using the run-off areas as "long-cuts" or short-cuts is not allowed and will be strictly enforced.
Missing a brake point and thus overshooting into run-off areas is ok, but when you rejoin the track you must wait until cars close behind you has passed.
Missing a brake point is a mistake and should lead to you having less speed out the corner, not more.​

Races will be held in the GT5NRL lounge, please add this account to your Friends list. Practice sessions will also be held in the same lounge.
​

Put me on the reserves please.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Same for me. No idea if I can or not.

 

[Toxa]

ok updated

 

[prarts]

Toxa, why TCS?
For beasts like LMP@Racing Hard it could be debatable but for our purposes it`s pointless IMO: kills enjoyment and car characteristic. Elise RM is a good example of that with its out-of-the-corner play.

BTW, put me on reserve pls.

 

[Dibbz]

I'm in

[Goldrusher]

Yep.

And even with TCS, you can still slide the Elise around corners.
