Default Time for a break

My gamepad has finally given up on me and with my birthday coming up next week and my girlfriend's the day after, I won't be able to afford a new controller for at least 2 weeks. Looks like I have to take a break from racing. Consider me suspended from the WTCC and Mini Tournies until further notice. Thanks guys, looking forwards to seeing you on the track again. Cya

Oh No!!! I'm losing my coach!!
Tough break Mike, but at least you get to spend some quality time with the girlfriend.
Maybe she'll get you a new one for your birthday????

Found out a have a bit of credit left on my credit card so just ordered a GPad Pro:

will be with me in 4-6 days. Phew, that was a close one! Looks like an interesting gamepad - it has a gyro in it that allows you to physically move the pad to control steering for example. Check out the link above. It's also pretty cheap and will suit me just fine until I can get a proper piece of kit.

Rock on.

What about buying a PS3 controller instead? there is a possibility to connect that to your PC... This also has the motion sensors installed... but no Rumbling

No worries - I'll keep myself busy in the meantime playing this awesome piece of software.



Anyone know the game? And yes, that is an ingame shot I took.
