I won't be pretentious and say that it's for the environment or jobs or artistic passion or whatever. For me, it shows that you and your league's work ethic is poor. If you're lazy enough to shit out an ai abomination and use that to represent yourself, then I doubt the reliability of your group is all that high. I won't be willing to spend my own time to further vet you.

Making a poster for free in 2026 is not hard. There are plenty of resources and more tools than ever. Just take a screenshot of a race your group had, add a filter or two. Then add text and you're golden. Can't dedicate 10 minutes of your day to make poster? Hell, some people in your league would do it for you for free.

Every simulators sub Reddit is filled with these generic posters.

I upgraded my rig a few months ago, and last week I sent my buddy my old one. We finally had an open weekend to play together and my base no longer connects to my PC. So instead of playing I'm running down the endless rabbit hole of troubleshooting.

If you guys are running good today, enjoy it lol.

Here's the situation: I miscalculated how tight a (flat) right-hander would be, and combined with some light drizzle, cold tires, FWD, etc., my econobox was headed straight towards a wall with severe understeer.

Instinctively, I slightly lessened the steering, applied light brakes; the car still wouldn't turn. I braked hard, but not too hard, enough for ABS to rattle the car visibly, then slowly unloaded it (trail-braking without adding throttle) just enough to avoid the wall by ~3 feet and escape. Muscle memory saved my ass.

I genuinely believe that, had I not had sim-racing experience, I would've done one or more of three things

1. Slam on the brakes as hard as I can in an attempt to stop the car, rather than turn away. Had I done that, I would've been in the wall

2. Turn the wheel as much as I can to turn the car. 100% would've just understeered and crashed.

3. Braked hard without trail braking; likely would have continued to understeer and struggle to rotate (esp b/c FWD) and crashed at an angle. And even if I had braked hard, then suddenly released without trail braking, the lack of precision probably would've led to too little braking to slow down enough, released it too late to have clearance to turn the car, etc.

And of course, I would've panicked, heading straight towards a wall while the wheel turned but the car wouldn't. All of this happened in the span of 2-3 seconds.

BTW please take this post as a reminder to not drive stupid like I was on unfamiliar roads and poor weather.

Here's a hotlap using the Ferrari 296 GT3 in Assetto Corsa.

Sorry for the building pop-ins, trying to get the track ready for overtake.gg, updates continuing.

Comparison with Tilke's renders below. The modeled track in the comparison is Early Alpha, so it doesn't have the longer layout.

i COULD muscle it out but this for drifting or off-roading in beamNG is crazy work.

Edit : I found the springs, it was on Simagic under “P2000 Maintenance kit”. Thanks everyone!!

After 78 starts, 11 podiums, 2 poles i finally get my first ever win

I signed up for RaceCrewAI about a year ago, tried it for a month, then used the official cancellation button on their site. They even asked why I was leaving, and I answered the survey. I then deleted the program.
For the entire year since, they have continued billing me every month — and double-billing me for the same charge. The charges show up as QUICKTREND U LDA COIMBRA. I can no longer log into the account. The “forgot password” option does not work. It appears I’m locked out.
I’ve sent multiple emails to their support address and gotten no response. Their own FAQ says that going through cancellation is required and that you should keep confirmation. I used the cancel button and still got charged for a year with no confirmation and no way back into the account.
I’m posting this so other people can see what happened and so the company has a public record of it. If anyone else has had continued or double charges after canceling RaceCrewAI / QuickTrend, I’d like to hear about it.

I just bought it and this sound’s driving me mad, i dont know if its normal or not. Need some feedback from u guys, thanks!

I'm looking to replace my Thrustmaster T300 so I can start playing F1 25. I want to try out Ranked matches. From what I've read, the Fanatec CSL DD has fewer bits compared to other brands... The https://www.fanatec.com/eu/en/p/sim-racing-bundles/r2r_cs_rw_f1_csl_epv2_eu/clubsport-racing-wheel-f1-csl-elite-v2-ready2race-bundle-eu bundle is a bit pricey, so I’m looking for something more affordable

Does anyone have the Logitech G PRO Racing Wheel? I really like this one, and a friend is selling it to me for less than the official price.

I’m also drawn to Simagic—even Moza—because of the variety of steering wheels.

The Thrustmaster T818 with the Ferrari SF1000 steering wheel is very appealing, but I’m not sure how much it’s worth it.

Hey everyone!

I'm pretty new to sim racing and recently bought a Logitech G923 for €230, along with a Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0.

After spending some time with it, I've realized that I'm not really interested in using an H-pattern shifter or a clutch. I'd rather focus on improving my driving skills and getting into more serious racing.

My plan is to progress through these games:

• Gran Turismo 7 (PS5) – My starting point, where I'm currently learning the basics.

• Automobilista 2 (PC) – Planning to move on to this, especially with the Zero to Apex mod.

• iRacing (PC) – My eventual goal once I've gained more experience.

I can still return my G923 for a full refund (€230), and I've found what seems like a pretty good deal on Logitech's website:

Potential new setup:

• Logitech RS50 System (PS5/PC, 8 Nm Direct Drive): €568.65

• Logitech RS Pedals (75 kg Load Cell): €127.49

• Total: €696.14

After returning my G923, the actual additional cost would be €466.14.

My main questions are:

1. Is this upgrade worth it for a complete beginner? Would I actually benefit from Direct Drive and Load Cell pedals at my current skill level, or should I stick with the G923 for a while?

2. Is €696 a good deal for this combination? Are there better alternatives around this price that work with both PS5 and PC? PlayStation compatibility is a must.

3. What do you think of the RS50 specifically? Is 8 Nm enough for long-term use, including eventually getting into iRacing?

4. Are the RS Pedals good enough? Would you recommend them over other options in this price range?

5. Is this a setup I could comfortably keep for several years, or would I likely want to upgrade again relatively soon?

I'll be using everything with my Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0, rather than a full cockpit.

I'm not expecting better equipment to magically make me a better driver, but if I'm going to invest time into learning sim racing, I'd rather start with something that offers good feedback, consistency, and room to improve.

Since I can still return the G923, this feels like a good opportunity to make the switch without losing money on my initial purchase.

Would you make the upgrade in my situation, or keep the G923 and save the money?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hey racers!

I been doom scrolling youtube and this video appeared. They had really interesting concept with the roof.

Maybe anyone knows where I can get it? Or anyone DYI it themselves?

All comments are helpfull.

Thanks, Stay fast!

I'm primarily a GT3 enjoyer who is catching the itch to do some oval racing again and potentially dabble in rally. It's been many years since I've owned an oval rim and a sequential shifter, so I'm curious what the recommendations might be currently. I'm a PC only player with a 70mm QR ready to go.

As the title stays, strap came with my Playseat Trophy but it's not anywhere on the parts list or in the setup instructions

I’ve noticed a trend where YouTubers will start out focusing on useful content like lap guides, sharing techniques, pitfalls, commentating races ect then once they become big enough they change into talking billboards. Affiliate links are everywhere even for unrelated products, they essentially say the same thing like they’re talking off a script (if you don’t believe me watch the Pimax dream air reviews, they’re literally everywhere atm) and they all claim to be unbiased ect even though they are an ambassador to the brand, have affiliate links or receive cash for positive comments ect.

There’s still a lot of great content from creators like bottomsplit bandit, sammysnake, fast until it matters, DJ Yee, Adam Pohl ect so I’m not complaining and it’s satisfying unsubbing from all these ads.

It seems the issue is with the plug (not sure the name), since plugging the pedal into the other slots on the control box still doesnt seem to do anything, while it works vice verse. Important to note, even when unplugged, or even when I plug in a different pedal, the software says it idles sitting at 15% (no idea why, I never recalibrated it after it stopped working). BUT, when I pull the clutch cable from the control box slightly out at just the right position, it will drop back to normal. Does anyone know what could have happened? Is it just the connector for the cable being loose/dying out? I hear they're not well put together from factory, but I haven't seen anything exactly like my situation happen.

Any help is appreciated

I have the pxn vd10+gt one and they seem to work perfectly fine in the pxn app and LMU/other games but for some reason it wont detect theleft/right steering axis in f125 (26 season pack). It also detects everything else like the buttons, does anyone know a fix?

Custom designed a K400 holder for my SV-R got tire of losing it on the floor. From concept to part in a day! If you don’t have a 3D printer you need one

Driving towards a goal still works!

Currently have a Logitech Playseat set up but now looking for something with a large range of quick adjustability so that my kid can play also since they started getting into racing games.

My kid is about 45 inches, and it would be preferable if I could change between their seating/pedal/wheel position easily without having to use Alan wrenches every time.

80/40 Extrusion rigs or tubular profile is fine, don't really care.

Is there any thing like this that exists?

Im upgrading from my Logitech desk wheel set up and managed to get a simucube wheelbase for 400 on Facebook marketplace.

Any recommendations on the rest of the set up?
The actual simucube pedals are out of reach for me budget wise haha

Was hoping to spend less than 1300 for a good cockpit, pedal , and wheel set.
