Controller : g27
cockpit : Sony Special Edition Iron Board

Experience:
1. G27 is ultra heavy, the seating position is awful and to make thing worse Iron Board also vibrate like mad when play on gravel map....so need to buy or build a proper cockpit

I also bought HDMI -> DVI cable but the monitor failed to display, maybe need to reset PS3 display mode

G27 review after 4 days of ownership
--------------------------------------------------
1. FF is set to 5/10 and quite good..not too tiring
2. I set from Amateur to Professional mode
3. Pedal clutch is similar to real world car .I own both auto and manual car and was a track day junkies. Heel and toe is there, but need more practise

The only complain is the gear shifter
===============================
I don't fancy paddle shift + twin clutch paddle shift since most of normal car don't have that technology

1. I missed gear a lot during fast gear change, I need to change gear a bit slow and in orderly manners...gear in then release clucth
I wish the H shifter is more heavier and give more metal to metal feeling

for braking I'll use my right foot...means no left foot braking
while dropping gear, try to mimic real life heel and toe


Total satisfaction 7/10...maybe I need a proper cockpit frame

Perunding, you'll need :
- a dedicated portal ( blogspot.com will do )
- a facebook fan page
- high res image, hire any SLR kaki
- paint it white

All you need is a marketing hype, then watch the orders coming in biggrin.gif
