Chris Siddall

Hi everyone I'm Chris, "the slow one" from CQR!

I've been sim racing for as long as I can remember (I think the first "proper" racing game I had was "Indianapolis 500" on the 486!) but have only just succumbed to the temptation of iRacing after resisting for so long!

I expect unlike most, I'm currently using an Xbox controller to race. I don't have a wheel (yet - still working on convincing my wife that buying a Thrustmaster TX would be a sound investment!) so for now have to make the most of what I have. Luckily I've been pleasantly surprised by how iRacing feels on the pad, as a while ago I tried rFactor using it and it was terrible!

For the most part though I race on Forza Motorsport (5) and am the Race Director at The Online Racing Association (www.theonlineracingassociation.com) which was the first sim racing organisation in the world to be recognised by a motorsport governing body (the MSA UK). I also co-run "Cyber Racing"; the official sim racing team set up by Prodrive.

I look forward to seeing you on track soon.

Welcome
