Yeah the brake pedal is a bit odd, a little too stiff, but it still kicks the sh!t outta my GT Force pedals. Any wheel is great in my book, I use pretty much the bottom of the barrel wheel and its beyond fun and imersive. I will never play a racing game on a controller ever again, I havent for years.

Nothing yet today to the car ...waiting on a friend to help with install of DLR LED strip, parking lights, turn signals both front and rear and reverse lights...all going to LED's.

Will be doing three Z34's today, two with the above mentioned and one Z with just the LED strip. May just turn this day into a DYI party...

Krispy Kreme doughnuts came back to the Sacramento region, probably start him out on a sugar high, then some Pacifico beer as a chaser.

This talk with car controllers is dangerous territory for me cause I luv simulation games.

I don't want to have to spend money like I did on my DSLR. Lol

Today motored my Z.

. Was a good drive, better if I didnt have to deal with this tailgating loser trash broad behind me who then proceeded to pass me which was fine but then swirved in and out of traffic (looked like she really needed to pee due to middle aged body), and the stupid chingaro landscape truck that crossed 3 lanes to make a turn while swirving in front of me. I blew my horn and had to slam my brakes thinking damn it now I got more brake dust to clean off while the fukers rushed to make their penny.

The guy in the passenger seat even yelled out in pretty native inglish 'you got good brakes, you should use them'. I didn't even look at him but was amazed they even have spec racers in mexico.

My girlfriend seriously hates me for all the time I spend sitting in that seat racing. Its amazing how real stuff is getting. All thats missing now are the G forces. The feedback you get from the wheel is so cool, you can actually feel every bump in the road.

maybe your GF can tilt the seat backwards each time you press the throttle?

and have her tilt the seat left when you're turning left to make it real confusing. lol

and you knowz wat happens when you're racing in the rain.

Washed the Z today. Now it's ready for a nice afternoon drive.
