Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Hardware at home to learn

fireglo2020 · 2021-05-06 22:52:59

Bit of a crazy idea: * I just signed up for my theory test - will take a few months * Lessons will start after that so likely talking autumn Is there anything I can do in the meantime to "practice" at home? Any hardware I can buy to plugin to my Mac or PS5 to get a feel of the wheel, clutch and stick shift? Thanks, K

I would imagine the price of anything that would be in any way realistic/decent would be pretty high.
Not a lot you can do really. When you are in the car as a passenger, observe.
Watch when driver changes gear, when they start to brake in anticipation of junctions/lights, road positioning, etc.
