Yes, I believe we are going with DK's choice.  

It's a bit hard to say though, Brad was pretty drunk, no way to tell if he even remembers correctly.

DK's choice was lame. We are going to try to tame the bull.

I drank almost a whole bottle of Crown. I put it back in the bag, but my wife pulled it out and left it on the counter to shame me the next day.

The Radbull? Sweet. I love the fireballs. Always wondered if it could be tamed.

We may have a new participant!!!  
 


 

First time really trying it and was with in 6 seconds of me at WG in the GT3 Ginetta after about 15 minutes of me coaching him on the line and what not.

It's going to be interesting to see how you both drive from the same seat.

Well guys, it looks like I'm out for the time being.  Somehow one of the spokes that holds the rim of the wheel to the center broke in rather spectacular fashion and I have no ETA on a replacement.  I'm almost positive the failure was thanks to my oldest who, when unsupervised, will yank the everloving e36M3 out of it side to side while pretending to drive.  Fanatec has replacement rims and entire wheels for sale on their site for basically everything the sell with one exception: the PS4 wheel.  I have a request in to them asking for availability but have no idea if they sell them separately or if there is even any stock as they are sold out of most of their stuff.  I may end up trying one of the other "PS4 ready" wheels as replacement if things get desperate but we'll see.

That's rough. I sold off mt G29 a couple months ago. If I still had it, I'd send it to you.

Bummer about the wheel.  I have spare set of pedals, but no wheel. Have you considered welding it? (I am assuming it's metal of course).

Oh crap! I guess I was pretty gone, I totally forgot about "the beast"

Of course, considering the car we are driving next week, a controller might be a good option, I am guessing there will be a great need for counter steering, besides, it might give the rest of us a chance cheeky

I have two PS4s in the house. So for a little more $$$ outlay I could put together a second setup.

Yep. Need to figure out if it is actually a feasible.

I tried the radbull at Nurburgring GP. With the default race setup it only goes straight  at anything over 40 mph. Unless you get on the gas, then it tends to go all directions at once. 
 

Hopefully with some tuning it can be made a little bit driveable.

It can be tamed, but I'm not sure if it will be fun or frustrating. It big issue is the street tires. It is fast, it pulled to 209 only running 50% boost.

Would be nice if I actually knew what car we are thinking of driving. Since my time is limited and I hate coming in cold as it means I am relegated to running in the back by my self for an hour I am a 50/50 for tomorrow.

The Mazda Radbull.

I think I'll map a button for the E brake to see if that helps the car turn.

Well, I ordered a wheel last Friday and it still hasn't shipped so I'm definitely out.

This is just a test and tune. You won't miss much. We'll all bombard you with setups that are completely different if we get the car to be reasonable.

Reasonable. LOL. I'm not sure about that, but it may be a fun challenge to try.

I am pretty sure it can be tamed with some diff changes and a few clicks on the rear bar.
