Hi everyone. I have recently bought a decent fanatec carrera wheel with 900 of rotation. Before I used to have a black momo racing with dreadfull 240 degrees of rotation. I knew about lfs for a long time since I have been in sim racing for a while. I started back in early 2000 with ISI games like f1 2000, 02, challenge all the mods and then some GP games like gp3 and 4. I did try lfs demo back in a day when it was still S1 I believe and I didn't like the way if felt on my old wheel. Maybe its because I never cared to dial in the controls properly or what ever. Now 2 weeks ago I downloaded S2 demo after having new wheel for couple of days. When I adjusted controls properly to 900 degrees and good ffb the game felt like a dream. I have been playing rf intensivly for a long time before I got my new wheel but now I finally understand what lfs physics are all about. The cars feel so natural and I can tell what wheels are doing at any point on the track. rF even though is a pretty good game, always had this floaty feel so a lot of times I wouldnt react fast enough to my mistakes because the feedback I get from the game physics is lagging I think.
Anyways, I am still practising with the demo but will deff get my S2 licence soon. I am still strugling with lap times. For some reason I am faster around the track with XF gti than XR gt. I don't know if its FWD over RWD but I was able to hit 1:36 on few ocasions with default race setup. I hit 1:37 consistantly with XF but with XR 1:38-39 is my average.
