Favourite software

iRacing - the tracks are so close to real life and the online racing is fantastic

My FPZERO simulator is fantastic. It's clean, tidy and fits in the house well. With the Direct Drive motor and Heusinkveld pedals I provide the same inputs as in the real car and get the same feedback. It's unbelievably realistic. I've been using simulators for years and the FPZERO Clubsport is by far the best I've owned, and the team are there for any queries I have. Next on my wish list is definitely a handbrake!
