No, you haven’t stepped into a time-warp. I’m talking about sim racing.

If you are a sim racing-junkie like I am, you’ve been anxiously awaiting the release of the Porsche 935 for SimBin’s GT Legends racing sim. And now it is here.

This mod includes a full field of legendary 935 liveries, including Kremer, Joest and Barbour Racing. I can’t wait to drive this beast at Le Mans!

Almost a year ago, we told you about Fanatec’s Porsche 911 Turbo wheel and pedals for all you sim racing Porsche fans. Now, Fanatec has just unveiled a sweet set of high-end pedals to go along with the wheel.

The new Clubsport Pedals are made of aluminum and are fully adjustable. And from the video above, they look really precise. I haven’t seen any details on price or availability yet, and it sounds like they are still in beta… but man, I would love to try these out with GTR2 and GT Legends.
