Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Isn't it funny, we spent $60k on cars but try and find ways of spending as little as possible to mount a wheel in the lounge! My couch is really deep so I dont think any of the pre made stands will work anyway. Have seen some amazing DIY jobs between various forums though.
I've gone back to the licence tests the last few days. Have golded everything upto S-8. Just have the last 2 to finish now.

Now if I can only work my way up to level 30 so I can get the Red Bull X1 Proto!2010 Skoda Octavia vRS Wagon

Like Dave I'm just driving auto for now anyhow and trying to gold as many races as i can! Halfway to level 26 now. Did a 60 lap endurance race in Spec A the other night. Over 1.5hrs straight real time lol! Lucky I had the Gran Turismo GT car so i flogged the field as quickly as possible by 10 laps LOL. All the other races are even longer in Enduro. Dunno how I am going to complete the 24 hr races?!? I mean who has time to sit that long playing GT5?!

There are buttons behind the wheel as semi useful paddles for shifting if you want. I used them once or twice but auto is fine with me!! Ah yeah forgot about the paddle shifters on top of the wheel!
