Hello, find myself attempting to get back into PC2 after quite an absence, in the extremely limited time I have, I also try to squeeze in some FM7, Ride3, some sprint car game and there's a couple others I own but never seem to get around to playing much as I'd like to. Generally a fan of open wheelers and such but will race anything. Might see me here or there when you come round to lap me, again.

Welcome aboard, we try to run as many open wheel championships as we can and you may be interested in our Indycar Championship that is starting soon and our Vintage F1 series which runs on Wednesday nights. Looking forward to racing with you soon. Cheers Dave

Thanks for the welcome, I will attempt to get a race in here or there, I only get maybe 4 hours a week (at odd times at that) so I don't get a ton of time in, but we do what we can. Seems like there's plenty of helpful (and shockingly agreeable for a sim racing community) people here though, so hopefully I can get some practice time in here and there, at least. I will check out some of the events and series for sure. I may have to pick up an F1 game as it sounds like you guys have some good times in there.
@hammerph, I've had the first TT game since release, couldn't get on with the physics, pre-ordered the second as well (huge Roads fan), the bikes are a step up but playing the game- I've played racing games since Atari and I have never had any game give me a headache and make me motion sick like that one. It's good enough that I keep trying but not sure how much you'll see my name on leaderboards. If you like bikes (I've got seven of the damned things) Ride is worth a go but 4 is due to be released in the fall so don't pay full for 3.

I've also only got the first TT game which I really enjoyed but am not particularly good at it lol. I've never been good on the pad so it took me some time to adjust to using that but I did get there eventually.. of course it had to be no assists with manual gears so that added to the extra thumb twiddling!! I certainly get where you are coming from with the motion sickness as I found that at times but I loved the incredible pace of the game, by far the greatest sense of speed of any game I've ever played!! I have looked several times at Ride 3 but lack of time to play many games has always put me off another purchase. When is 4 due out? EDIT:- Just checked and Ride 3 is £49.99 and even Ride 2 is still £44.99 on the Xbox Store!! That's mad!! I was thinking of maybe getting Ride 3 but not at that price That's always the problem for digital games they are still way overpriced over here in the UK unless they go onto Xbox Gold!! Do you play any of the Moto GP games at all?

Do you play any of the Moto GP games at all? 4 is due out sometime this year, usually Milestone releases it in September or so, of course current world events may delay that. Full price for a two year old game due to be replaced is madness.
I have MotoGP 19, quite like it but I never seem get to it, too much else to do!
