Welcome.
Fartcan racing is an Online sim racing community, a few guys who started out racing with no Sim racing experience and found that the major race leagues are packed with experienced Sim Racer's who’ve been doing this for years and as a result we found it difficult to be competitive, so we decided to create a Race League for those starting out or those who are not at the pointy end of the …

For those of you with a G25 and are a bit of tech instead of getting the G27 why not just mod your existing G25. You could buy the SLI-M addon from leo bodnar.

This is the bit of electronics

This is what it looks like mounted. It now has more buttons than the G27. The cost would be around A$130

I also found a link to a PDF that shows you how to dismantle the G25

There's a line in the force feedback settings that unfortunately causes a slight dead zone when the wheel is perfectly centered. This "gap" was driving me nuts so I figured out a way to get rid of it. Just follow these steps...

- Open the following folder: Program Files>rFactor>UserData>*your profile*

- Then open the Controller.ini file with Notepad

- Search for the following line by pressing Crtl-F: FFB steer force neutral range

- Change the value from 0.04500 to 0.00000

So you can almost make your old G25 be like a G27.

as far as I can gather thats the case. Check JFF for more details philpiggot is organizing it. I believe one of the JFF members is going to put them together. I'm only getting it if all I have to do is mount on the wheel and plug it in.
