You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

There should be one more option: No racing games at all.
Just to see how many are not playing at all

Don't do any online racing yet. Primarily went with Assetto Corsa as someone created my local track for it.

I am a PlayStation fan, but the GT sport is nothing what made me like GT games. Now I moved to Xbox and play Forza M7 and Horizon 2 and 4.

Putting my rig together as we speak. Should be ready in a couple weeks.

PC based, triple screen 8020 rig with Fanatec gear.

Probably starting off with AC and rFactor 2.

Where do I find my steam friend ID?

Being stuck at home made me go out and buy a PS4 + wheel setup. Will be mainly playing F1 2019, but also will probably buy GT Sport and Assetto Corsa. Figured might as well learn some sim racing.

And boy did I get a shock on how expensive all this gear came to be. And I basically have a very beginner setup...playseat challenge seat with Fanatec CSL Elite F1 Starter Kit.

I've always had interest in getting a setup. Prob PC based? How realistic is it? Not afraid to spend the money on set up. Thanks!

Ugh if you want realism you can dump a lot of money into it. You can start out in the low hundreds with logitech or thrustmaster. If you want to start big like I did...you buy into Fanatec. My first purchase was almost $3k.

If you want realism you get a Direct Drive Wheel base with force feed back.

Wow great start! I'm waiting for my Fanatec to come in, but just starting with the CSL Elite w/ F1 club sport wheel.

I'm assuming you're playing F1 2019 on Xbox?
