r/simrally

Loving the direction of AC rally but we need some shit boxes to represent grass roots Motorsport.

For now the mini fits the bill of a slow car but I want to see more!

RBR has a solid little selection but would love to see more options in a modern game.

Wow. Downloaded it yesterday and set it up. Played for 3 hours last night. Joined a championship through RSF and got top 50 (beginner bmc championship). Felt amazing.

Did a few time trials with a few cars. All feel great. I can actually control the RWD cars and am drifting most of the turns. Feels right. Struggled in other games.

First introduction into rally games was Rallisport Challenge 2( one of my favorites), then played Dirt 1 and 2.0. Put 300hrs in 2.0 using a t300 al cantara wheel. Had to sell it due to space restrictions. Took a hiatus for 5 years.

Saw a great deal on moza r5 bundle and told myself I am just going to use the wheel and paddles to try out Forza 6 h. Learned ac rally came out browsing the steam summer sale. Of course for rally you now need handbrake, sequential and h shifter. Put 75hrs into that. Very impressed, need to wait until gets fleshed out. Never picked up forza 6 h.

Tried wrc 2026 as needed break from ac rally. Not as good as dr2 and only enjoy the wrc cars. Fun game but not quite right in the feel and ffb not great.

Kept hearing about RBR and Learned RSF made an easy to install complete package free game. Figured I try it out and wow I am glad I did. Now I know why it is considered king of rally games. Ffb feels great cars feel great and there is a huge risk factor if you screw up. Going flat out and didnt see a small stump and ended one of my rallies. Was awesome.

Excited to keep exploring the game. So many tracks and cars. Unreal. Played a track with cobblestone and rwd car. Felt like it was a drift track. Amazing.

Just recently got psvr2 for pc and excited to try thst with rbr.

3hrs in with rbr and I know this game is a masterpiece. Can't wait to to play it again.

So, like many of you here, sim racing has completely consumed my free time, and I am looking to upgrade to a proper cockpit and seat. I am currently using a next level racing lite 2.0 wheel stand with an office chair. I've been googling and watching youtube vids for the past couple of hours, and I am more lost than before as I didn't realise there are so many options.

What I am looking for:

• Something comfortable for a 186cm (6'1) tall male. I suffer from terrible back pain, so comfort and lumbar support are the most important aspects for me. In my current setup my back is killing me after an hour.
• It needs to be able to hold a Moza r12, an h-pattern shifter, and a handbrake without issues. I don't want the rig to move, shake, or flex when I change gears or press harder on the pedals.
• Also able to hold a 34 inch ultrawide screen. An integrated mount on the rig would be nice to keep things compact, but I'm open to a standalone stands too or any other suggestion really.

My price range is around of £1000 give or take a couple of hundred. I am not sure how realistic this is, but I thought I'll ask. Thanks in advance for anyone reading and helping a fellow addict out.

Sim Racing can become an extremely personal hobby. Especially when you spend thousands of dollars investing into premium equipment. You spend the hours practicing the fundamentals and doing all the right things. Rallying through an almost flawless stage and never losing focus for a second, yet your time is still 5 or more seconds behind the top of the leaderboards. You then download their ghost to see exactly where you fell short. You witness the leaders ghost cut completely off the stage to cheat their way into a better time that could never be beat by a sim racer who believes in integrity and proper technique.

I post this for the Sim Racer who gets discouraged by those who have no integrity and believe their lap time outweighs the human value of integrity. Know your values in doing the right thing will always be more valuable than those who exploit the system. It is why you would crush them if you were to race them live 1 vs 1 with no infinite attempt to exploit the system. Leaderboards mean nothing outside of real time and it is the individual understanding of concepts under pressure that will always outweigh the weak minded soul who looks to gain through exploit.

Hey r/simrally! I got into RBR yesterday, had no prior rally experience except BeamNG and rallycross on iRacing, so I'm new to rally. I drive MX5, Beetle Lite and GT3 on iRacing, found the Escort a pretty comfortable car for me. I'm pretty unconfident now, struggling to keep the car on the road, what do I do? What stages do I drive to get in the hang of the car? Also my brake is constantly hovering at 1%, and my throttle only goes up to 98%. The feedback is absent, only resistance. Any fix? 

Hardware: Fanatec CSL DD + 8nm Boost Kit, SIMSONN Plus X, and a Simjack HE002 handbrake. Thanks in advance for help, pls no hate
