Hi buddy, good video - as always. Yes, I have the pitwall and I like it a lot. What I like less is the subscription required. I'm always happy to pay for good products, but I'm not a fan of subscriptions. Unfortunately, this has become more and more common in recent years. In addition, the subscriptions are offered all over the place. It's easy to lose track... Often you have things that you initially use frequently, then only occasionally, and at some point maybe not at all. But the subscriptions continue to run diligently in the background.
Very true. I have so many subscriptions it is crazy. I routinely do a sweep of what I am paying for and if it no longer brings value I will cancel. I may not keep any for long, but while I have it, it is totally useful. Honestly I miss the days of just buying something and being done. However you are absolutely right, it is about balance and value proposition. Thanks for the feedback.
It’s stopping me from even looking at it. I would gladly pay $10-$15 per. Maybe even offer upgrades to major version changes as they come out, if they do. Subbing for it. Not going to do it. Patreon is pulling down some nice fees from all this. Heck, I paid the developer of SimHub $30, more than his asking price because it was worth it to me, and NO sub! Subscriptions, that business model needs to die.
@EVH_Wolfgang I gotcha. Totally makes sense. You could become a member for a month, download the software and cancel. Your subscription is not needed to use the dash. Only to have access to download. Similar to Dan Suzuki QR. I have supported some for months, some to get access and some for much longer. Just depends, but the sub is to get access than you can cancel. But I hear the sub business is killing everything.
This would be quite useful for something like endurance racing imo, your team mates having the ability to all view a shared pitwall and relay information to you while you do your stint would be pretty cool. I find that the info that Kapps, Racelabs etc gives you for short 15 - 45 min races is more that enough. Lovely pitwall is abit overkill for that
Yeah that is where I totally agree that it is so useful for endurance races and being able to share the info would be great. Racelabs, Kapps are definitely great for stints and short races. Although I find using it for short races I do enjoy as well. A simple glance up and I get a bit more info than I can just on my dash but overall you are 100% correct. I've used in a few Sims and the info it provides is great. Overall 2 great products either way. Thanks for tuning in. 👍🏾
I like all of your stuff, didn’t particularly enjoy hearing you telling your viewers to pay for something. You sound like a salesman for them. Became a bit annoying. I am a user of their product and I have donated, but I don’t think you need to beat it down to everyone to pay for it. I think you went on about that way too much. When you actually talked about the product, it was great. Keep up the good work though.
Thank you so much for being honest. What it lacked was balance. Present, pitch and move on. Don’t want to be too aggressive. It’s why I appreciate people who follow and I appreciate you. The product is so good I wanted to share the lil things and make people aware but as you said, don’t want to get all salesperson on ya. I’ll keep em coming and I promise I’ll only ask you for money once. Hahahahahaha😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
The part I don’t like is people’s expectation that they should get everything for free. It’s not a big deal to say that something is worth paying for. If sumhub went subscription, I think telling people it was worth subscribing would also be the right thing to do.
I agree. I always believe in a honest days pay, for an honest days work. And even if it is to donate a cup of coffee, a little from a lot can go a long way. I also don’t want to sound like a salesman but it is totally worth paying for in my book. 👍🏾

Love the Lovely Dash, have been using it for a while. Didn't realise he did a pit wall also, shall check it out, ta.
Freaking love it. Pit wall is my favorite tool period.

Cool stuff. Great job on the video
Thanks Todd. Just trying to bring insight and thank those that do great work.
It looks lovely and informative. Can it be run differently on monitors or it needs a DDU to run?
Can be run on monitor, phone, dash. It’s run through Simhub.
I need to get it
It's great and works with simhub, and so far it has worked with the Sims I have tried.
I use the dash on some sims. But where can you get the Lovely PitWall?
It is currently a member only feature. Super cool tho.
Does pit wall record pitstop time, thanks?
Good question. I am not sure that it does. I'll have to check.

Let’s go. Big fan of lovely dash!
Me too... All his stuff is awesome.
