    I'm a kid and there's not much to ride your motorcycle within 10 kilometers. The fact that motorcycles can be that cheap does the exact opposite of terrifying me though.

    i set up the t500rs and its great. its hard to say this without sounding like an elitist jack ass but you haven't played beamng until you've played on an FFB wheel. so rad. now to swallow the 400 dollar price tag on the frex hshift+.

    I use my gaming laptop :p, it has 16 gigs of RAM, the graphics card is a NVidia Geforce GTX 960m, and it has an Intel I7 with 2.7 ghertz processor, I can play on max settings with most cars running at 50 FPS. My laptop is an Acer Aspire V17 Nitro Black Edition.

    Logitech g25, does anyone know how to make it so that the sequential shift doesn't mess with first and second?

    Beat it with a hammer.
    Anyone here who has tried the Android controller app (or how it's called) yet?

    T300rs with t3pa pedals and a ferrari 599xx evo rim on it... Certainly worth the 500$ i put into it.

    Weird. I've heard that the main problem is that the g-force meters aren't fast enough and stuff like that...
    Do they suck, or are they good?

    I have one like this and I will never use it again since I got my T500RS. If you take the shipping I'd donate my Driving Force wheel. The only bug is the double click on the right shifter you mentioned too.
    Germany to NL? What might be the price?

    I like the OS, unfortunately app availability is crap since Android and iOS have a monopoly on the mobile OS market. But it does all I need it to do.

    Ditto on the OS. I actually don't care that their are few apps, I just my phone as mostly a phone. I do have a couple games, namely solitaire, minesweeper, and a silly racer. I also like that I can use the remote desktop connection on my phone. :D Makes forgetting to turn off my computer a thing of the past.

    Never heard of that shifter but its look and the way it is mounted would kill a lot of the realistic feeling. Why were shifters like the TH8RS/TH8A or the one from fanatec no option? Besides they are way cheaper ;-)

    As long as the basic stuff (social networks, tools, browsers) works on it, it's fine. The biggest advantage of them would probably be the fact that you can run a little Office on it though. Probably.

    Office app is shit on 8.1. It's actually better on Android :/
    Win10 has the new one though which is much better. Windows 10 is actually really good on mobile. Might have to get a new device if mine (Lumia 635) doesn't get the update.
