    i believe it is only optical my pedal is ok and the sound is in order in this position
    when the car is in the box and does not drive.

    maybe the other here in the forum can check this too.

    @Christian Göpfert ... thanks for the fast feedback ;)

    Nothing wrong with your pedals, the idle rpms are just set too high. ;)

    Had some races yesterday with this newly released car and must say i am very happy with it.
    Personally love the FFB and the way it handles. Steering input feels very intuitive imo..
    And it Nicely fills a void in the car selection!

    Thank you guys!

    What a fun car.
    Feels really nice and solid, nothing mad, still able to drive it past the limit.
    Like the sound, very believable.
    First of many new BMW's.
    So, that is good.
    Thank you, again.

    I have to agree that this is a fun car to drive.
    It's great if you just want an easy car without too much hassle setting it up and I have to say the AI have felt really good as well

    Thanks guys

    I just did a few offline and online races with it, it won't be my favorite car to be honest, but if you turn the TC completely off, it is fun to drive on the twisty smaller circuits. It's a good starting point for rookies.

    I really like this car. Fills a void in the roster for a track-prepared road car and Sector3 have done a great job with it. As others have said, it really benefits from setting traction control level 1 to 0% in order to unbox the fun factor a little more.

    I haven't bought it yet, but I made a few test drives with it and I have to say this car is awesome and it feels better to me than the Assetto Corsa version. The physics, the FBB, the connection with the road... it just feels fantastic (although I've never driven one in real live so what do I know...). Also the interior looks amazing! Nice job! :)

    Just have to think a bit more and decide if I want to spend the few VRP I have left either on this car or on the FR X-17. I know I'll end up buying both so it's just a matter of deciding which one to buy first :p

    Maybe stop hitting curbs so hard...

    Messy...very messy..

    I've tipped every car in my garage over at that particular bend but point taken, it is relatively easy to topple but is that not down to it being a road based car with very minor race tweaks? who cares, bloody good fun to drive, what more is required?

    Indeed, it's good fun to drive and the reason why it tipped over is because i was hitting this curb too hard. It's nice to be punished when you make a mistake...

    I think 'we' should leave it as it is..
    Not sure BMW would agree.
    I think Mr Goose has called it right.
    Basically a mildly tuned 'road car'.
    Still, that kerb is that high to stop us cutting the corner.
    And those naughty F1 racers...

    I'm yet to roll this car. What am I doing wrong?

    Hmm, some say the key to success (or in this case rolling the car) is to cut the track! Hit those giant sausage kerbs because half your car is over the inside of the corner :D

    But more seriously, some corners are just more of an issue. T1 RBR, T1 Portimao, T1 Hockenheim, T4 Sonoma, etc.

    Maybe this way you'll learn not to cut corners. :p
    *Maybe*...

    What are you trying to say? That there is a natural deterrent already in place to prevent me from cutting corners? What is this nonsense. I call shenanigans :D
