> One thing I’ve noticed now that I have the wheel, I have to concentrate a lot harder. I was actually tired after the race. Full force feedback when you hit the rumble strips is something else. I turned off all the aids execpt TCS and ABS, and the car is a handful. I’m working the clutch on my own too, heel-toeing when downshifting in some of the turns so that the car doesn’t spin out. I really need to spend some time playing with track setups.

Yeah it does get quite tiring I ended up turning it down to about 60%, I’m suprised how well this ancient wheel works though. Currently only using auto-clutch due to the lack of a clutch, and low on ABS as it’s way to easy to lock the wheels on the TVR. Though I might turn that off tonight if it’s a track I’m familiar with.

From my experience:

Ferrari - Quick, but very unforgiving. You let it step out you’re done. That said it seems to be a very precise car. Excellent car if you can avoid going past it’s limits

Porsche - Easy to rotate, precise braking. Power isn’t as “on/off” as the other cars so you have to get on it earlier. And also be more agressive to keep the revs in the powerband. Good all-around car.

TVR - Fucilloain’tgotshit **HUGE** blind spot. Sounds amazing, a bit more forgiving if you make a mistake due to the weight being up front. Brakes are very powerful but extremely easy to lock the wheels if it’s bumpy at all. Broad & torquey powerband very controllable. The way it moves and takes bumps is rather unrefined compaired to the other cars. Take a lot of effort to drive it, part of the reason why I like it keeps me entertained.

Oddly the driving style is quite a lot like playing Viper Racing making it easy for me to get into when it came to driving it. A game that if anything I’ve played wayyyyy too much.
