Thanks all, and cheers for the guides Becky. Printed and ready for reading after work

As a bonified absolute beginner, I might just do that!

Cheers all, ah typical, I did look for the newbie thread but didn't find it. Nevermind. Well I've just completed the obligatory reading up on flags, safe driving and race politics as well as watching the mini videos (awesome but obvious). I guess tonight I'm going to spend 8 hours learning to drive safe before I get the nerve up to join a course with real folk :P

Oh, I'm hoping to help my girlfriend learn to drive with this, what do you think, will it help? She's done about 20 hours already but due to a loss in the family she's paying off a funeral for the next year and is forced to take a break from lessons so I thought this might make a nice alternative (and a great excuse for me to buy it). Do you think a g25 will help with her use of gears and clutch control or is it just not close enough to the real thing yet?

EDIT: Also, how do I get my little flag at the top left to change to Scotland?

Added! Only one other Scot? Surely not, and in Dundee of all places

Hi all, I'm brand new off the factory line, just bought my license and I'm going to play for the first time tonight!!! I'm 32, based in Edinburgh Scotland and I love driving, but moreso I love racing.

Just received my G25 wheel this morning to my work address, TrackIR due next week and was advised by a friend to buy a license for Live For Speed asap, so I have, and here I am!

So what have I got to look forward to? I'm totally new to this community and looking forward to joining a league and getting stuck in! I'm so excited I'm going to need a change of underwear before I play tonight.
