Quick Tips is a new segment on the Simpit. In each episode we will have a very simple tips to solve common sim racing problems.
In this episode we give you tip on how to minimize racing oversights. A simple pre flight checklist is a great way to make sure that everything is ready to go for a race. We have all made the mistake of joining a race and finding out that a wheel, or a shifter isn't working. This quick tip will help prevent those kind of mistakes.
Another quick tip you could feature in a video... "cheap," or budget alternatives for "button boxes" and other input devices. For example, a simple USB 10-key number pad is an excellent low-budget alternative, and you can find some with larger buttons for under $10. Though it's not as cool and stylish as an illuminated and labelled button box, it's small and light, and you can quickly mount it on your rig so it's just inches away from the wheel rim.
You are now the second person to recomend a USB number or keypad as a cheap, quick and easy button box.
I will try to grab one and feature it.

I wrote something similar to this a few weeks ago. Nice point Shaun

Some good ideas, I started out in Army Aviation as a crewchief, so I used checklists from the start. I always go thru mine and make sure that I have all my equipment set up and running before I go into a room. Good video.

TP needs some updating. It is not very intuitive for new users. Instructions are hard to follow at times. Support response is in need of someone's dedication. Having individual paints is a real attraction within iRacing. This needs to be done better or replaced! Interesting that without member support there would be no answers or help. It's a shame, the program is so popular not to have good management.

Hey Shaun:
I was hoping to participate in the next race and on Simracing System it says it's at Fuji. Which version of Fuji should I download.
Thanks!

Sean,
I am all signed up and ready to race in the Carrera Cup, except for one thing. How do I obtain Road America? I do not have it in AC as one of my tracks. Where is it?
