Thanks for the thread. I dun goofed by not googling effectively. I'm surprised so many have gone/continue on iRacing since car selection is anemic and graphics are...old.

Getting into sim racing was on my winter todo list, so Im kind of in the same boat. Ive tinkered with it here and there for years but never really put the hours into it to really make it rewarding. My soon to be finished basement mancave has a corner earmarked just for a sim cockpit. though I think channing wins with his 120" projector screen

Check out Assetto Corsa on steam, ive been playing around with it since it was beta and it just went 1.0. Its quite good, though the track list is mostly european tracks (The dev team office is at Vallelunga after all)
I do think that if youre serious, iRacing is the way to go long term.

G27 is still the best reasonably priced wheel to have when I last checked.

I've always be a huge gamer, but I'm getting to the point of not wanting to do anything unless it offers me something demonstrable in the real world or augments a hobby. Sim racing might be able the help me with some of the basics....

G27 ftw. I'm surprised people love a logitech periph so much and also surprised that people still recommend it after all this time.
