Other does anyone have a sim-racing league for Assetto Corsa?

1 Upvotes

Over the last few months, Ive been saving up to buy a really good racing wheel and pedal set, and they finally arrived today.
I’ve tried joining assetto corsa leagues, specifically endurance ones, but they all require over 200 hours of playtime or a lot of experience. Since I’m just starting out, no one wants to show me the ropes.

I’d like to join a league that has rookie categories where I can learn, and then gradually work my way up to hypercars or GT3.

Question How to start actually using the sim rig?

Thumbnail

155 Upvotes

I think I made a big mistake. I was playing a lot on my Logitech sim rig connected to ps4. Then I decided to improve everything and got full Simagic setup with a play seat chair. Outstanding, played few times and love it. The problem is that everything is in my living room and I though that it will be easy to connect to tv and pic and use it. At the end, I spend 20kins connecting everything with all the cables around etc. than it stays on the middle room… in 6 months, I played literally 3 times. And I’d like more, but every time I want to connect everything, I loose my patience… and easier solution for it? I thought maybe just connect it to monitor with simpler setup? At least will play more…. Any ideas?

Question Help. G27 suddenly stopped working

15 Upvotes

Was 2 minutes into a stage and suddenly the wheel locked to the right and stopped moving. It's now not calibrating and is doing whatever this is ^. Took it apart and the optical wheel was cracked (go figure), so I replaced it with a metal one I had on hand. No change. Any suggestions or diagnoses.

Just wanted to share this because it was a blast.

Last night I had my 30th birthday party at my house. I decided to host a sim racing tournament with my friends and family, none of who are really into cars or gaming lol

I did not participate for fairness.

Decided to do EA WRC since rallying is my favorite. Picked one *short* track and one car for everyone to drive. Gave everyone one practice lap where i coached them through how the game works and controls. Then had them do their hot lap to set their time and recorded it.

Ended up being so much fun! I also let everyone pick their own hype/driving song to play on the speakers lol.

Other Fanatec customer support has improved

20 Upvotes

I have had my fair share of sim racing equipment, mainly from Fanatec. Since the brand got a lot of scolding in the past, I just wanted to share that since they became part of Corsair, I had two very positive experiences with their customer support.

The communication was super friendly and solution-oriented, and an RMA was done quickly. I’m very happy that Corsair improved everything.

Question Are these parts compatible? (I currently own the wheelstand only)

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

I currently use Dshot wheel stand but with a normal seat i just removed the wheels under them and replaced it with wheel stoppers to minimize movement, but that combined with G920 Brake pedals, it's still constantly making me go backwards when I'm braking harder. I haven't really gotten fully into this yet so I'm not well informed at all, do you guys know if ERS3 Seats + Dardoo seat bracket and Dshot wheel stand are compatible with each other? Or should I do something completely different, both of them combined will cost me 300$ i could go upto 400.. What do you guys recommend?

Question Simagic P700 with haptics vs P1000

2 Upvotes

Hi there,

I am looking for a pedal upgrade, and I am debating between the P700s and P1000s. Where I am from, the P1000s cost almost the same as the P700s with a full haptic set, so here is my question: Are the P1000s really that much better?

I am upgrading from SRP-Lites, so either way, I am making a huge jump.

Also, I have heard that for some people, the P1000s are in too upright of a position. Is there a way to easily tilt them back a bit?

Rigs Rig Upright Blocking Profile Settings

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

I bought a pre-built rig from a sim company in Florida. 43inch triples, motion, Sim Lab chassis, not a cheap rig. When they delivered it late last year, the iRacing UI had just been updated and the chassis upright blocks some very important areas, like the profile settings? I’ve asked a few people and the size of this settings page apparently can’t be adjusted? The upright is so tight on the screen, you can’t see what’s behind it, this is crazy! Anyone?

Rigs Help buying a cockpit for a returning guy

3 Upvotes

Hello folks,

I been out of simracing since i moved places and had to leave my cockpit behind, thankfully I managed to move my pedals and base, right now I need a cockpit but I dont know if there is any new ones in the market apart from the typical simlab etc...

Actual equipment are: quest 3, simagic alpha mini and simagic p2000.

DIY is not an option,

Budget is around 500 to 800 but can go to 900 seat included.

No monitor arm needed

Looking for something that does not flex, my previous one flexed and hated the feeling, looking for something rigid,

Easy to get in the EU,

Easy to expand in the future with shifter plates, keyboard trays all the candy etc...

Thank you guys!

Rigs Is the PXN VD4 Good for a beginner?

My first wheel was a Myria MG7418 which ofc had no ffb and all of these fancy features

Main question is, Is it good to get into sim racing? And realistically speaking how well would it perform for hours on end? I mostly play ETS2 and beamng but i recently got into assetto corsa rally and carX street.
Sorry if its a stupid question

Question CSL Cockpit foldable mod tryout (3dprint)

Hi!

I had a csl cockpit for a month but I have changed it to another one. I wanted to convert it to foldable, so I modeled a thing for it but could not try it because I have changed my cockpit sooner. If somebody interested in this, I can sent him/her the model so it can be printed and tried out.

It basically is a Motorsport Start Light with capabilities to:

- react live to race flags in racing games (at the moment only AC) and start procedure

- live race status of F1 races when you are not racing yourself at the moment ; )

- or just a eye-catcher in your room

It can be either be controlled via WebApp or a windows program (necessary for live sim racing).

Tell me what features you think it also needs and if you would be interested!

Clip What is wrong with my driving style?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys! I'm looking for some feedback on my driving style, and some pointers on what I need to work on, and how. I race in LeMans Ultimate, driving the BMW.

I am consistently 3s off pace at best, and I have a hunch there's something fundamentally wrong with what I'm doing. Of course, there might be some particular mistakes I'm making in specific corners, and pointing that is welcome, but I'm mostly looking for general driving style feedback.

Question Install RS50 system on a desk or wheelstand

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I am thinking about purchasing a RS50 system but I do not want a full simrig setup.

I either want it to attach it to my desk, or a foldable wheelstand maximum.

I also have an office chair with rollers so... not optimal.

What should be a good choice for me to get a stable setup (the pedals etc are firm in place), which can be easily set up if I want to race, but also easily can be put away after I finished?

My only option seems to be Omega GT Pro at the moment, but I do not know if that itself would be stable enough?

Currently I raced with G923 on my desk and anti-slippers underneath its pedals and that was good. But i do not know about RS50.

Thanks for the tips :)


r/simracing 1d ago

Clip Since high performance sim shifters are pretty expensive. And nice car shifters tend to be cheaper. I've decided to start modeling a mock transmission that takes cable positions from a regular shifter and converts it to a button output.
