I always take off the brake assist, I cant stand that.

Just qualified 1st and then beat Webber for the win by 19 seconds. Guess I need to turn up the difficulty now...lol

I only beat my team mate once out of 4 races and the highest spot I finished was in 10th


I'm not the best video game player in the world but I'm certainly not the worst either. I just don't understand it

 

Yep, I'm still trying to get good at it. I turned off just about all the aids at first and I was over my head, so I put traction control and ABS back on. I still spin a lot when I go over the kerbs.

 

played online last night at Monaco and by default the driving aids were off......I couldn't even make the first turn

 

You guys using racing wheels with this game? Trying to decide if its even worth getting without one.

 

don't have a racing wheel

haven't ever played with a racing wheel I like

 

I've been using the xbox wireless wheel and pedals ever since I got Forza 2, it is awesome. Wheel and pedals add a whole new dimension to all driving sims. The xbox wheel and pedals are pretty reasonably priced too, not sure how much it is in the US but I got mine with Forza 2 for $200 AUD cheap!

To make it worthwhile you really need to set it up at a desk with your monitor on the desk. A racing cockpit also works if you have the means and space

 

I've started winning finally!

I actually enjoy this game now

 

Picked up a G27 and Wheel Stand Pro, and this game rocks. Love working each track to get better times.

I really enjoy how you aren't expected to win right off the bat. Gran Turismo and Forza always force you to win everything, which I kind annoying.

 

Patch came out today, fixed the pit stop bug apparently.
