DSD Demonstration of 2015 D Pro Sequential Shifter

Looks like Derek Speare Designs DSD is hard at work creating a new Pro Sequential shifter for 2015. As Derek says it's made of high grade plastic that should last a lifetime. DSD is known for there awesome service and products that are field proven to just work over and over!

I want to get one of these to test out. I'm really in the market for a new SQ shifter and this might fit my rig nicely. I'm curious how ruff I can be with it and how strong the spring tension is. Being it's made from plastic pricing should be really fair.

No price announced yet, but this is sure to be another top seller for DSD. Check out the video and visit their website for Derek Speare Designs

Oh baby!. This looks awesome! When can we get this Prototype into a sim please? Notice the steering wheel actually looks like Fanatec Formula rim.

Win a Free SRH Tach by playing RaceRoom

You like racing games? You already own RaceRoom? Then race down to the competitions section and race for a chance to win a USB Tachometer. 

SRH and Sector3 joined forces to give away 3 Tach Stands. Don't worry you don't have to be the fastest to win, although that will help you secure 1 of these tach's, but SRH is also giving away 2 of them to random entry's who put in a valid lap. It's a win win really since your having fun anyway.

So go to http://game.raceroom.com/competitions/ and crank up the Mercedes 190E to toss it around the Zolder track. Free to enter!

RFactor2 New Content Coming!

Well Holy Cow!

rFactor2 is bringing some great new content that I can't wait to get my hands on. Lets take a look.

First up!

The Nissan GT500 I'm drooling over. It's a 500 hp V8 RWD monster instead of the Twin Turbo V6 4wd monster. With rFactor2 physics this will be a treat to drive. No date on when it's coming out, just the twitter feed that says soon.

2nd up!

1966 Brabham is coming soon with a physics update, bringing chassis flex and improved wet weather tires. I'm curious to try this one out as I currently lack skill to drive this race car fast.

3rd up!

ISI is bringing some sweet looking weather advancements to there tracks. This should bring some new immersion to your races. I can't wait to see this one.
