and its very fun useing my porsche 911 turbo wheel limited ed cant play a racing game with out it lol i allways run manual now sense this wheel has a h shifter and a clutch pedal and im really use too it than auto which i allways use before i got this wheel.


but anything playing with this wheel is fun lol

sure it is expensive at 350-500 for a wheel but pretty much the best for under 1000$ and you can use it on pc ps3 ps2 xbox 360 which why i went with this wheel sense its the ony wheel with the h shifter that works on 360.

and sure is worth it when you get it at first i thought i wasted my 350$ but i was wrong.


i play maxxed out @1920x1200 on my desktop amd quad 965@ 4.1ghzs with a 4890@dx10 or 9 not sure what dirt 2 runs at if you dont have dx11 and i get problee 60+ fps allways think last i saw it was around 80 or 90.


would like too get a 5870 or a 5970 later on but the 4890 have not fail me at maxing out games and @1920x1200 except its missing dx11.
I almost got the porche turbo s wheel, if your into multi console its the best choice. if your pc only like me the G27 is identical quality for a fraction of the cost and easier to get.

$300 retail but I saw it on sale for $200 once. I thought too much for a wheel so I passed it up. Really wish I had gotten it now.

The momo I use is like a $100 wheel but I got it new off ebay for $60.00 so it was a steal. I use manual also not sure if you can tell in my video but I am using the paddle shifters.

My other reason of going with a G27 as a recommendation is that while the wheels are very close in quality the pedals are eons apart the G27 pedals are way better than the fanatec stock ones. They are like plastic toy pedals....

However you have the option of paying like $200 more or something an getting the Sports Club pedals, and then its the reverse those are one of the best pedals you can buy and better than the G27... but your now paying well over double the cost of the G27 for the kit.... in a price vs performance scenario the G25/G27 I think is winning.
