The best button box is the one you don’t need to mount.

The best button box is the one you don’t need to mount.

RaceHub 4.5 is live, and your RaceView display just became a button box.

Swipe up on the 4.3″ 60 Hz display and up to six virtual buttons appear in the middle of your wheel. Assign and label each one in RaceHub: pit strategy, voice chat, streaming scenes, whatever you need on the wheel. Use it and it fades out again, so your telemetry keeps the screen.

No extra hardware. No new mount. No cost.

How to get it: open RaceHub, accept the update, let your connected products update their firmware in the background. Done.

Live demonstration and open Q&A right here on 2 September at 20:00 CEST. Bring your questions and your bind ideas.

What to do

I'm considering going all out and getting the Invicta wheelbase. Any owners who can tell me about long-term issues to look out for and how to fix them? How reliable is it compared to the Forte? I have this odd fear of missing out on the extra slew rate of the Invicta. I'll be buying the Asetek Invicta wheel and the d-shaped rim paired with the Forte GT button box.

Asetek have the best customer support in the industry - change my mind

So long story short, I bought a bundle consisting of the La Prima wheelbase, the La Prima formula wheel and the Forte pedals. Since the start I had an issue where the steering wheel simply stops functioning despite its LEDs being on - no encoders, no buttons, no switches work. Then it reconnects. This had the habit of happening completely on random and during races.
I entered their site and quickly contacted them regarding this. They wanted me to test with different cables, manually update the firmware as well as to see if all my PC drivers and BIOS are alright. I sent them the log files and some more photos and videos of this and they told me that the issue is actually in the wheelbase and that they will give me a new one. They quickly arranged the shipping for me and I just had to give it to the delivery driver. I sent it and now I got the message from them saying that since they don’t have available La Prima wheelbases, I’ll get a Forte! So kudos to Asetek for:
1.) being professional regarding the technical stuff and advising me what to check and change
2.) responding to my emails very quickly
3.) for sending me an even better wheelbase than the one I had instead of saying that I’ll have to wait because they don’t have any La Prima bases.
4.) for making the whole process fast and easy - I just had to send them videos, results from tests and log files. Then they advised me on the next things instead of insisting I haven’t done something correctly.

I know that it might literally sound like an advertisement but this is genuinely what happened and I am still trying to process it. I’ve had to deal with the customer support of another sim racing brand (not going to mention it) and it wasn’t even near in terms of efficiency and professionalism. Taking the upgrade aside, Asetek really do their job well in CS.

Forza or Icooh carbon ceramic rotors

I am considering upgrading to Carbon Ceramic rotors on my Maserati Gran Turismo. Does anyone have experience with either Forza or Icooh? They are the only two companies I can find who make a conversion package allowing me to retain my Brembo calipers. I am looking to find real life examples of people who have used either company.
