What in-game settings you use?

[Lee Downham]

... not sure there is a thread for this already, but I am curios how other people configure their driving experience.

My Settings:
Driving View: Cockpit (on single monitor)
Mirrors: On, Virtual
Driving aids: All off
ForceFeedback: On, low (Logi Momo Force, red)
Clutch: auto (although just started practising with a button & manual)
Seat position: pretty much full forward
Visible steering wheel: Off (usually)
Gears: manual (flappy paddle change)
[Edit] Wheel rotation: 240º, usually between 18 and 22

 

[Rocco Uder]

Hmm, alot of people use the paddle when driving the BMW e90, i always thought the race drivers use the H thing?

 

[Marco de Vries]

Driving View: Cockpit
Mirrors: On, Virtual
Driving aids: All off
Clutch: manual
ForceFeedback: On, high
Seat position: Front position
Visible steering wheel: On
Gears: manual
Wheel rotation: 200 degrees (around 18 wheel lock ingame)

 

[Chris Buchanan]

Driving View: Cockpit
Mirrors: Virtual
Driving Aids: Off
FF: Off
Clutch: Auto
Seat Position: Default Currently
Visible Wheel: On
Gears: Manual L2 Up-R2 Down

What's a realistic setting?

900 Degrees is considered "realistic" as that is what a real life car uses but I would guess that people that actually race have their wheels and response set to only use around 240-360 max rotation

H pattern makes it a lot harder to drive quick laps - and if you are using Auto clutch you may aswell just use the paddles. It is quite good fun to use the H pattern in the club races where its a lot less serious.
