Got into sim racing again and more seriously than before (G920 on Xbox to Fanatec DD on PC) and really enjoying it, especially LMU online races.

Started off in rookie lobbies and would get podiums and even a few wins, loved it.

Now in the bronze daily races I’m usually split 1/2/3 out of 30 ish, which I assume is split on driver rating? (Although still bronze 2), and I consistently finish from 10th to 20th.

I still thoroughly enjoy these races but even a top 10 feels like a win to me, do I need to properly get quick to have a chance of winning again?

Not really sure what I’m asking just wondering what other peoples experiences have been with their own pace and how much they get on the podium 😁😁

Hi all new here + to Reddit

Recently bought the Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro (second hand) but was setting up and playing some LMU today - all fine.

After about 1h the wheelbase randomly disconnected (sort of). I couldn’t shift or have FFB but could turn the car. Turned it on and off and fine for 5 mins. Then the same again, turned on and off, 30s later the same.

Then had a spike of FFB when reconnected, and then the wheel span insanely quickly in one direction uncontrollably, and I had to yank the power cable out to stop it.

What caused this? Has it done lasting damage (it was spinning super quickly for maybe 5-10s)

What has caused this?
