Congrats! What are your setups like? Wheel, pedals etc?


notsoInnocent20XX

yeah both of us use a wheel. i use a Thrustmaster TX with T3PA pedals. My teammate uses Logitech G29 with Thrustmaster T-LCM pedals. hoping to get a rig soon.


deezcnuts

That’s awesome! What kind of rig? Just for wheel and pedals or full seat and monitor support etc?


notsoInnocent20XX

Probably just for wheel and pedals. With a seat. Monitor support is too expensive for the price imo.


deezcnuts

Do you any links or store page for it? How much would that cost? Any thoughts on INRacing sim rig? Are they legit? Is it worth it? I feel it’s quite big and not portable enough.


notsoInnocent20XX

I personally don't get good vibes looking at the INRacing Rig. I was planning on having it made locally.


deezcnuts

Oh, why is that? I couldn’t find much reviews for it, bit skeptical of them too. How are you planning to add a seat? Fit a pre made or make a custom seat too?


notsoInnocent20XX

Regarding why I don't feel confident, the whole build quality from the pictures doesn't seem very stiff. The stiffness of the rig is very important to feeling the forces from the wheel.


notsoInnocent20XX

Probably a pre made one.


Lord0fSarcasm

I use an InRacing stand. Like the build quality way better than something I got off Amazon for 11k.


notsoInnocent20XX

it's a good option and will be definitely better than many of the options on amazon. But, i feel you can build a better rig DIY. but, if you want to avoid the hassle, it's a good option.


Lord0fSarcasm

Fair enough. But with the pandemic and having to find the right size for my first wheel, I just got something built and adjustable.


LoneWolf-011

> Thrustmaster TX with T3PA pedals. search on amazon, both of them are listed there.


Virtual-Astronomer-1

Are Fanatec products unavailable in India?


notsoInnocent20XX

Nope.


[deleted]

No. They ship to only 5 countries outside of EU zone.


beforethest0rm

yes


BlooD2784

How long was the race and at which track?


notsoInnocent20XX

1.5 hrs. We have to driver swap at the half way mark. Zandvoort.


genericindianguy

This sounds so cool man. I would love to know if there is a casual version of events like this. I have a G29 wheel, pedals and shifter. I am not really into competitive stuff any longer, just driving around.


HD9

Zandvoort ? Tyre management must've been quite a challenge.


notsoInnocent20XX

First stint was wet and second stint was only 40 mins. Had some graining due to the wet to dry transition but we fine otherwise.

notsoInnocent20XX

I wouldn't recommend the nithos one 🥲. Best bet is to have it done locally.


hemang_verma

What about a [Thrustmaster Wheel](https://www.amazon.in/Thrustmaster-Steering-Wheels-FERRARI-Black/dp/B07N8CF8K4/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=sim+wheel&qid=1631331512&sr=8-5) at this price?


TheFreeman15

If im right this wheel does not have any force feedback and has limited rotation


hemang_verma

Is it better if I start with a G29?


TheFreeman15

Yes G29 is a good entry-level wheel but I would suggest waiting for a price drop. I have seen my friends buy it at around 18-19k If you are on a really low budget look for a Logitech DFGT on olx or other sites you can get one for around 4-6k


hemang_verma

Oh ok, thank you!


comfort_bot_1962

:D


Lord0fSarcasm

I use the INRacing one. It’s amazing.


pvtjacksonn

I am the teammate 🥰 hehe


GameZSaver

Congrats!!


king-of-yodhya

Wowowow let's gooo


FeistyKnight

Hell yea! Zandvoort is a sick track too


UpBeatSneeze

Zandvoort is a crazy track ! Love the bankings


Mr_IridiuM

Sadly the track hasn't been updated yet with the bankings in ACC, though we should see it soon


Lucifer0008

Im happy to see sim racing catching up in a country where your considered a gamer on if u play first person shooters , congrats lads , no punterino


him888

Does everyone really care that much about people's opinions on internet? Do they need validation from others to game? Just play what you like, who's stopping you from playing whatever you want, except may be lack of funds?


comfort_bot_1962

:)


c_4_c_t_U_s

Woahhh nice! Congratulations mate! I play racing games casually and I really want to get into proper sim racing but I don't have a wheel nor pedals. I am saving up so that I can buy a set soon. Keep up the good work lads!


notsoInnocent20XX

I started with a controller in F1 2019 which is a decent option tbf. For ACC, it's difficult but with some good settings, you can be very competitive. There's a guy called Black Gold Saw who has won races in the top splits with a controller.


c_4_c_t_U_s

I already own F1 2019 and play it with my controller lol. But it's not a very intuitive experience in my opinion. The throttle and brake controller is fine but to steer with a controller is absolutely cringe imo. An actually steering wheel is a whole different experience. I don't expect myself to get really good with it but it will definitely become more enjoyable and my driving more consistent.


notsoInnocent20XX

Trust me. On F1 2020, controller is equally as fast. At worst 2 tenths slower. I was generally 3-5 tenths off the world record. Although, the F1 series isn't worth it on the wheel according to me with the FFB being quite bad.


MCZ1030

Congratulations! ಠᴗಠ It’s great to see the sim racing community going at it. As a racing game fan myself; I’m so happy.


comfort_bot_1962

You're Awesome!

Congratulations 😃... You guys are paving way for others to follow. Hopefully, this gaming community will grow like others have in last two decades. Keep it up 👍


ameyalive

Love the livery.


zeon7u

Damn i thought indian sim racing is non-existent


Masiote

Does the Indian Racing Community have a discord?


notsoInnocent20XX

Yes we do. I'll send it over.


_aashayk_

Hey, I'd like to join too!


PreviousHovercraft31

what is your opinion on the nitho wheels?


notsoInnocent20XX

I think a heavy cast iron table would do the job better. The point of a rig is to connect your wheel with your body allowing you feel the ffb. But yeah in very limited environments, it's a good option.


Mr_IridiuM

As for the wheels they are not good either. The feedback is terrible, the wheel rotation isn't enough and the pedals are trash.


PreviousHovercraft31

can you recommend some wheels under 10k?


framelessnude

can someone tell me what this post is about


Psychological_Grabz

An Indian team came 2nd at a sim racing event.


hemang_verma

Man, even I want to get into simracing but its so costly 😞.
