As is often the case, I'm a little late to the party with the new (ish) BTCC content that's been working it's way through the Assetto Corsa community of late.
While the cars are of course, the stars of the show, I have to admit that it's a couple of small mods that have appeared over the last week that have made it all click for me... i.e. I've got the nostalgia fuzzies again! So much so that I've had to break out the slow-mo, after a long self-imposed ban!

Fanatec have sent me pre-productions versions of the CSL DD Direct Drive wheel and CSL Pedals. And, since they arent the completely finalised retail-spec models, there are a couple of caveats before we get into it. First of all, this sample of the CSL DD wheelbase doesnt have the production-specification quick release assembly, so Fanatec have asked that I only use the wheel rim that has been provided. So with that in mind, I wont be covering the quick release at all, since theres nothing useful I can say beyond the fact that the CSL DD will have one! The final caveat, and this is important - this video shouldnt be viewed as a review - its an early access look at some cool tech thats coming out soon.")
