On a different note, fortune island is worth the money.

You do online at all?

I wanna get a group together for some shenanigans.

You're my one friend on Xboner who plays Horizon so I am always racing your drivatar.

Time to for an Xbone.

That feel when I could have bought a Xbone and FH4 for less than this Elantra rental for 6 days

CaleDeRoo · Sat Jan 05, 2019 5:35 pm

Buy a C4 ZR1 on my behalf

Thank you

Apologies for the lack of clarity.

I also purchased and downloaded it. But it will not allow me to play.

MexicanYarisTK · Tue Mar 05, 2019 9:33 pm

anyone played the drift club 2.0 on fortune island? it's tits!!

you drift the formula racing branded and packaged cars, including dat e30. The last one, you have to get 1,000,000 drift points and the route it around the island, for 7 miles, took me almost 10 minutes

Anyone ever used a direct drive wheel?

More likely gear or belt driven. G920, correct? DD wheels typically start at 1k.

2 years ago I decided against buying a sim set up and here I sit and I'm still interested so I decided to buy something. And now I'm doing what I always do..."for a little more money I could have this instead!" Actually ordered a CSL elite and cancelled it to order the DD. Now I'm waffling again.

I just want it to be worth the upgrade. If I can get 90% of the feel for 50% of th cost, I could use that money on a sim PC, especially if the PS5 doesn't support current gen peripherals.

KYGTIGuy · Mon Mar 09, 2020 5:42 pm

Also, are you still using your set up 2 years on?

There havent been any new releases since the g920, correct? I really want to upgrade from my logitech ferrari wheel. But I dont know where to start. After my track day this weekend even Forza would be better than nothing for good practice hitting apexes and learning car control.

Ideally id go :fullretard:

and spend 3k on a setup. But thats a couple track days I could do instead.

like I said I don't play enough, and my setup is baller as fuck compared to a controller.

turn off all the driving aids and put it on simulation, add a litt dead zone to steering And you are good
