    Question to the Fanatec McL GT3 Users:

    How did you get the wheel working with Raceroom? For me there is no profile for this wheel.

    Firmware of my wheelbase and the wheel is updated through Driver 311.

    You need to create a profile.

    I made my own. I have 4 profiles for RR and i made them all. Never used a preset before honestly.

    Do you mean it doesn’t see the wheel?

    I already have 2 profiles, one for my BMW GT2 and one for my formula wheel.

    But I don't see any option to create a new one for the McLaren wheel.

    I finally got my tracking number this week and even if I dont like it (which i doubt) it will make a nice ornament along side my diecarst and RC cars .
    I always turned off those vibration motors as they seem to confuse the FFB to me .
    I find it weird how Fanatec have sent the rim and QR in seperate postage box coming at different times !

    When you have it I would love to see a photo once attached. I think my next upgrade will be that wheel.

    I didn't think id be able to like a rim more than my Formula Carbon but Fanatec have made something even better than it with the McLaren GT3 !

    You won't regret it!. Love the wheel every second. And in future -hopefully- more sims will support the rotary knobs.
    The feel, look and 'playability' are gorgeous.

    Veel plezier ermee, have fun with your new toy

    Because of the later then expected delivery date I got a QR adapter for free. Nice service from Thomas and friends
