^^ Man I'd have double the price of a store bought setup in emergency room fees If I attempted to build one myself. Hammer + saw + me = blood

Picked it up today @ lunch. Still at work though so I haven't cracked it open yet.

Got a review ready yet? I've heard of some problems with the Fanatec wheels and Forza 4 -- One a bug with getting 0 credits for races in World Tour and the other with sensitivity settings and unpredictable steering feedback. Have you experienced any problems?

as far as the sensitivity the braking is what takes some getting used to and takes tweaking..... the pedal itself has a dial with a 0-10 load cell feedback feature.... it controls how the wheel itself will vibrate when full braking force is applied to let you know ABS has kicked in so if you set it high you dont have to press the brake with much pressure at all to make the ABS come on..... 7 out of 10 is about what i keep it on... when im doing thoe hard 1 on 1 chase events with the slower cars... i set it on 10 so i just tap the brake and get full braking.... i think the problem people are having is that the pedal itself is very stiff and it doesnt have much travel.... where like a plastic logitech GT pedal will go all the way to the floor with little pressure... the CSR is very firm... so you need to get used to that.... it has a bolt you can adjust to make it loose...but its way too loose that way... i tried it and all thats needed is just adjust the load cell where the ABS comes on without you straining to push it to the floor as thats not needed if you set the load cell to like 1 you can come out of the seat pressing the brakes and the car wont stop well in addition the wheel itself has an ABS setting that 0-100 that engages the ABS depending on how far the pedal is pressed i have mine on 90...so ABS is on at 90% of the pedal pressed fully in... combine this with the load cell set high you can stop pretty easily.... it just takes getting used to as its different than any wheel set up ive used before but yeah over all man i love it... no issues at all for me.. the paddle shifters are very realistic and have a real quality feel to them.... i will make a quick vid of me playing it tomorrow so you guys can see Last edited by MC; 10-15-2011 at 09:17 PM. |

Cool. I just pulled the trigger last night on the WRC Playseat Revolution -- Amazon had those at $150 less than the new Forza badged seats and other than badging and slight seat variations they are the same setup. Likely gonna get one of the fanatecs so I don't have to switch wheels between Forza 4 and GT5
