This would solve my life around here, bad thing that it dont sells in Brazil... but nice video!
Just use wifi and get 23 ms latency instead of 44 ms?
This makes me want to stay on gran turismo 😂
my brake leak out like a fountain how can i fix the problem??
Hii
Thanks mate this was super helpful .. :)
i don t understand,we have a special seat for wheel but no holes to fit the pedals with some screws? wtf?
What a great race and a great drive!
Great video, all these upgrades are quality and actually work without compromising the way the playseat functions, but after reinforcing all those vulnerable parts, there's one area that you didn't address so I've got to ask..... What about the Red Plastic Locking Nuts that allow us to adjust / move the peddles forwards and back depending on how long your legs are.....Is there an upgrade for the Red Locking Nuts as the plastic ones can break and don't always hold the peddles tight enough and sometimes slide forwards when breaking hard !?!? Thanks in Advance for Any Help / Info !!
I have the exact same problem, which the pedal clamps from indigo lime cannot fix. I am using the T3PA Pro with loadcell mod. When I brake hard the red plastic lock nuts comes loose and the whole pedal slide forwards as you said 🥲
This video was so good, iRacing must take your video and pay you big bucks for it and use it. It is far better than their lack of explanation videos!! Good job mate
Great review, very informative. thank you.
NEXT TIME DONT EVEN BOTHER WITH CINEBENCH ON THE LAST GRAPH.. MAKES THE RESULTS LOOK ODD and honestly no1 really cares about single and multi threaded for gaming benchmarks only care about what settings u using. what hardware.. and if u are running a overclock. and what temps u are hitting... but really great work.. but thats the only thing id change is make that graph correctly and u will be able to show people just the graph that way they can get the info needed and get the hell on with there day lol. great job subbed.
I found a very similar mod (to the wheel plate reinforcement) on Etsy Germany, the two differences are it costs only 22€ plus shipping (8.5€ to Italy) and it has knobs instead of screws to tighten it, so it is much handier... I think it is more effective than this one
Thanks for this video! I'm new to iRacing and had no idea this existed. I'm looking forward to seeing more interesting paints tonight when I log in!
Insanely helpful vídeo, even 4 years later. Thank you so much, mate :)
Doesn’t work
I need help on engine evolution ,a very rough racing sim.I need to shave 0.250 off my times.Could you drive engine evolution 2023 and put your fastest on RUclips please?I know its a very basic game,so don't expect a response,thanks😂
I was following the racing line while learning a new track in a public sesh, then I had someone ask how to beat my lap times for that track...I was only 2 seconds off leaders pace haha racing line isn't perfect sure but it'll at least give you a rough idea of what to do until you're ready to learn the faster line.
I know its an old vid, but anyone who has one and is interested in hard mounting the pedals. You can use motorcycle handlebar mirror mounts, they line up perfectly with the holes on the g29/g920 and are cheap enough. 10x better than zip ties, no movement at all.
Been on iracing about 8 or 9 years ago it felt horrible and disconnected from the wheel, now i have a expensive dd wheel what's it like these day's, im tempted to try it
Excellent review!
hi i just set mine up with the csl dd, i noticed the wheel shakes when the car is not movng and also when i'm on the straights. Any advice on how to fix this. Also on the controller config mode it shows a g29 wheel is that normal? thanks
Thank you! But also how the hell do you make that bat file thingy 😂
Hi is this still a viable option in 2024? Has newer firmware improved the performance? Has the strength and the feedback improved?
Thank you so much, this will make my streams look way nicer!
has anyone seen where the drivehub USB port flashes 3 times when plugging in the Wheel USB but. doesn't stay solidly lit? and wheel inputs don't work?
Yea it happens to me also just unplug cord to console and plug back in repeat until the all stay on
Great video mate!
Thank you for this! Definitely going to implement this in my videos 👌
Paul, I'm a new SIM racer and content creator. I started Sim racing back in November and have fallen in love with it. I would love to make videos that are similar to yours, like the dashboard and stuff. Do you have any updated video creation guides or is this the only one you have? I know this video is over 4 years old but just curious. Thanks man!
May try to do an update with VR settings and stuff.
@@PaultheSimRacer Would very much appreciate it if so!
Thanks for this vid. I have ordered from a different shop but looks the same. Looks very promising! Thanks again
what a life saver!!! Thank you so much!
Thanks for this video! I wish the SimJack Pros worked on Drive Hub too.
Does this work for the similar next level racing lite cockpit?
How do you switch to fanatec mode ?
What causes knee pain, after doing a 1 hour race I experience knee pain in my left knee from braking.
Have you tried adjusting your leg alignment to the brake pedal? Ideally they should be perfectly in line with each other.
I have aproblem, the rain does not appear on my windshield when i play on vr, What should i do??
Think someone said about that in another comment, something to do with the shader settings? need to set it on high
its disgusting how far down this video is when searching "iracing rain vr" plus the amount of filters i used....this website man
It's now on top at least for me.
Reminds me of an actual race at Donnington that I took part in in the 90s. In third place, the guy in front spun coming out of the chicain and beat me across the line going backwards! HaHa.
Hi, did anyone had issues running VR Oculus after the rain update? I can run the game in the monitor, but if I try to launch in oculus I'm getting stuck at the loading render...
I had the same issue. Took me about 40 minutes and 10+ attempts to load into a lobby. I was using the Oculus sim display mode and it just kept crashing. Seemed to mainly happen are transitions for loading. Sometimes it would never load past the main UI, other times it would get to the VR load screen, get all the way to 100% but then crash trying to switch to the race/practice lobby. I only made it into a car once, and that only lasted about 3 minutes. my headset blinked out 3-4 times in that short period and then disconnected. I've got a Quest 3 and 3090.
Lots of people on reddit saying you need to run the UI as administrator to solve.

@@PaultheSimRacer I submitted a ticket and that was what supposed suggested I try. I haven't tested it yet but that was their solution.
Hi Paul! Quick question! Im thinking of upgradeing my Rift S , to a Quest 3 , im curious about perfomance and clarity , i have quite a beefy PC that can handle pretty much anything i throw at it , but only seem to be making 40fps on iRacing using the Rift S , i would like to know your opinion and maybe some settings you are using , since i noticed you are running this at flawless 90fps
I have a Quest Pro, but a lot of people say Quest 3 is actually marginally better in clarity / resolution. I still like my Quest Pro as the colour contrast is slightly better. I had a Rift-S a long time ago before going Quest 2 -> Quest Pro. I didn't like the Rift-S, lack of IPD adjustment, very washed out grey colours, stuck at 80hz etc. So worth grabbing a Quest 3 for sure. I'll try making a vid this weekend about my VR settings as a few asked for it.
Can't wait to watch your rainy races! 🏁🏎️🔥
How do you get the rain particle effects on the windshield? Is it a graphics setting? For me in VR the windshield is perfectly dry...
Change Shader Quality to High and restart the sim.
@@FrappuccinoMe Thanks for that, I wasn't aware it wouldn't work if people didn't have that on.
yes it works on shader High or Ultra. The effect is missing on Low and Medium@@PaultheSimRacer
Sorry this was such a short impression - the service was basically unavailable for most of the time I tried it. I couldn't get on an online session, so went to a test session. Think it's just due to the sheer number of people trying this out today. Please note, this was the track set to it's worst wet weather setting - 'water logged' track. I doubt the races will ever actually be this bad, but it was great to try out.
What do you think of GT7 VR in rain?
Did you find any major difference in performance (FPS or stuttering)?
@@Scalma_91 Not for me - but then I have a RTX 4090 / 5800x3D CPU
@@powerpaul1423 I haven't got a PSVR2 to try it :(
What are your iracing settings for VR to still get 90hz? I was a spa with 30 cars and it dropped to 84..... 14900k and 4090
Amazing content mate! The pic you used to show the formula sitting position is from the Elemental RP1! I laminated all of the carbon parts (all the car basically) of first units back from 2015 to 2017 when I was just starting as a composite technician in Portugal (the parts were later assembled in the UK)! I never expected to see that again in my life!
Haha how cool!
drivehub does it support podium dd2?
Are still able to fold the chair after installing this kit?
yup
love u!!!!
I had no idea this was an option. Thank you so, so much for this! This is going to change my videos and my streams immensely!
How do I record the footage as dcs (game) has to be at the front
This update is pure hype. Im so glad with the decision they made on the rain implementation. Rain is rain..it shows when it shows. Give us some radar and let us go. I hope this means they lean into a few more 90 - 120 minite races.
