    Since camera/seat don't save per car, it's good to know that the camera/seat adjustments button can now be held versus pressing them 50 times :) Nice work.

    This simulator is inching closer to perfection... I cannot even imagine a year or two from now!!

    That ‘s one of the major drawbacks of the game that has not been fixed yet..other than that some cars are a blast to drive!

    I agree, that and the ability to map tc, abs, engine map, mix etc to buttons instead of the awful ICM. Still love the game though.

    Did you reset the setup for default?


    Because its so fun to drive, i dont have problems with bouncy anymore, with any porsche. It feels like its suposed to be.

    Fun fact, i had notice some similarity with the Porsche Cup with the 911 from IRacing. Its no the same, but pretty close on physics.

    I think we all know someone is going to be very happy :cool::D

    I’m looking forward to seeing the effect of the slip tweak on the P4s, love those things.

    Not sure why you got dislikes for this, it's a valid question and observation. Interested as to whether or not the suspension will be adjustable at some point myself tbh.

    Hahahah i believe that if more than one sim had similar physics, i would say that its possible that we are close to reality, once i never drive one 911 GT in my life.

    So lets say its positive.

    They nailed it this time. The steering locks are working inversely for some cars btw. With some cars I need to decrease for others need to increase to take turns with less steer input.
