    With the Historic contents of AMS2 soon to be increased.
    The 3 Videos are a reminder of the times, with some demonstration of real car control.
    Cars, Names and faces that made History.:) Enjoy.
    Unmissable clips., quotes, moments

    Re Monza


    I would like to thank Reiza @Renato Simioni (have a coffee and enjoy vids!) and all the team for their sim Particularly the Historical content.
    The selected 3 Videos are dedicated to the Devs and fans alike.



    Have fun. Weekend approaches:D

    Thanks for the links Maser!

    I too got excited a couple weeks back and added F-Retro G3 to Cars of AMS2 already. It's obviously based on what we can derive from the little info we got :).

    RS "Historical tracks belong to historical cars, and with Monza coming up this seemed good timing to expand our F-Retro line-up into a third generation to offer something with long legs to stretch over those long straights -"

    Any idea's confirmed? out there.

    Hi, all.
    I am curious about the CSL DD wheel bases, and also the Simajic Alpha mini.
    1: Do you own either of these wheels or have any thoughts , feedback, impressions, suggestions etc.
    Thanks in advance.




    I see you have 1. I take it from your question that you have to currently set it up as a custom wheel? any thoughts appreciated on the unit.
    Also same @Shriukan :)

    Have my CSL DD 8Nm for little over a month now. Brilliant little thing. Due to almost no games having support for it right now, Fanatec added a CSW2.5 compatibility mode so I didn't have to do anything special aside for setting the wheel in compatibility mode and as a CSW2.5 ingame and keybinding things my way.

    When I run the CSL DD it is in Comp 2.5 mode. If you are wanting to make the move to a Direct Drive then this is defintely the best entry point. I purchased the Podium DD at release and absolutely love it. The CSL DD surprised me and pacls a bigger punch then the package would lead you to believe but I would for sure buy the booster kit for the 8nm.

    Thanks gents very helpful.
    Seems a no brainer for me (g29), but the s/majic also has appeal just the price of their wheels to fit puts me off. CSL is due in meantime, (long wait!)

    Scheduled to watch later. Quite a long feud between these two! Unfortunately, it seems to be more down to interest conflicts regarding their present day activities, rather than getting the record set right.
