    How to change kph to mph

    I hope people here find my exploits interesting, since I come from a different background (zero gaming or IT background, no real interest in sim racing, but lots of track time in real cars, and experience building my own track car), with different goals (primarily honing skills between real...

    How to change kph to mph

    Well, a pristine street 968 with low miles might fetch a reasonable price, like maybe something in the $30K range, but mine is a track rat that I built just for me to have fun at track days, so it doesn't adhere to any specific race class rules, which I think will make it very challenging to...

    How to change kph to mph

    Thanks for the inputs. I worked with a coach to set up the car, so I will contact him about adding a bit more horsepower to the engine. It isn't just the maximum speed that's off - I can tell in other parts of the track that the sim car doesn't accelerate quite as strongly as the real car...

    How to change kph to mph

    Now that I'm able to view my speed in mph, it's confirmed something I've suspected - the sim car appears to be less powerful than the real Radical SR1's I race. Where I can hit 128+ mph at the end of the longest straight at Atlanta Motorsports Park in the real car, I can barely hit 118 mph in...

    How to change kph to mph

    Thanks - Now where is that face-palm emoji? It couldn't have been staring me in the face any more directly.

    How to change kph to mph

    I'm sure this is yet another dumb question, and the answer is staring me in the face, but I'm not seeing where to change the in-car display of speed from kph to mph. The new GUI is much easier to use than the old one, so I'm surprised I'm not finding such a basic display setting. Thanks.

    Just wanted to pay a compliment

    Do I ever! I was clueless beyond words, and I still would be if it wasn't for this forum.

    Just wanted to pay a compliment

    It's too easy to criticize things, particularly tech-related items, when they don't work quite the way you'd like, so I wanted to give a shout-out to the developers and supporters of rFactor2, and to the great resource that Studio 397 is. As anyone who has ever read any of my posts knows, there...

    No brakes

    Lazza, That did it! My brake wasn't assigned for some reason, so I assigned it to the brake pedal as you recommended, and now everything works. Thanks very much - if it wasn't for you, my sim rig would be nothing but an expensive coat rack. I really like the new GUI, by the way - much more...

    No brakes

    After determining that my Fanatec Clubsport V3 pedals (specifically the brake pedal) was defective, I sent it back to Fanatec, who replaced the load cell, and it now appears to be working. When I go into the pedal calibration screen in the Fanatec control panel, the status bar (or whatever it's...

    Does anybody repair sim race hardware in the U.S.?

    After several failed attempts, I was able to submit a ticket, including a video demonstrating the problem, to Fanatec Customer Support, and I already received an email with a case number, so maybe I will hear back from them soon with a recommendation for how to proceed.

    Does anybody repair sim race hardware in the U.S.?

    I know this isn't an RF2 related issue, but this forum contains so many helpful and knowledgeable people that I was wondering if anybody here has any leads on someone (U.S. based) who repairs sim hardware components. My Fanatec Clubsport V3's pedal assembly's brake pedal isn't working - it...

    Not getting any response to throttle or shifter

    Thanks for taking the time to provide that nice explanation. The assign controls screen has always confused me, because I never understood why anyone would want keys on the keyboard to control things that are controlled by the pedals and steering wheel, other than, say, the speed limiter. But...

    Not getting any response to throttle or shifter

    Edit: The brake issue appears to be a problem with my pedal assembly - When I go to the Fanatec control, I get no response when I press the brake (the throttle and clutch are working normally). So this particular issue doesn't appear to have anything to do with rFactor2.

    Not getting any response to throttle or shifter

    Yes, I do have the strangest issues - more often than not, they're self-inflicted, but this doesn't really appear to be the case this time. So here's the latest; I had a couple of other issues (steering wheel in the game turning a lot more than the physical wheel, and the images not displaying...
