For a while I've been considering getting a direct drive wheel (which will also require a solid rig instead of my desk). I can afford it but it'll be a massive cost. I can justify it if I enjoy the driving more, with one example being that it's easier to catch slides and prevent crashing.
I've recently been driving a difficult car (Lola T70) and I don't know if some of my crashes were effected by the controls (G27) not giving me proper feedback, or if it's just my inability. If the latter there may not be much point in upgrading.
If there was somewhere I could go to try out a solidly mounted direct drive wheel (with decent pedals), I might be able to make an informed choice. On the other hand it may take time to really understand things.
I understand that right now it may not be wise to visit some place, or some stranger's house, so this post refers to the time when life starts getting back to normal.
I'm based in NW England.
Any thoughts on the issue?
