Hahah only the most flattering picture is good enough.. Was fun talking with you Zach, and all the best with the business!

[@TurnRacing]

😂 Thanks Niels!

[@HenkFueltank]

Great advice by Niels at the end.. Best advice I've ever gotten: Work on your company, not in your company.

[@TurnRacing]

Totally agree!

[@BlindGoose1]

Nice getting some background from the both of you, I have set of HE Ultimates and a Seq shifter from Heusinkveld, and a DIY AM steering wheel from Zach (TURN) and I love it all, and want more ;)

[@TurnRacing]

Thank you sir!

[@slatanek]

Thanks Zach for a great podcast! Very informative and interesting. Keep it up!

[@TurnRacing]

where is part 3 of the gt3 cup build? the first two were awesome!

[@TurnRacing]

It's coming soon I promise 😁 I've just had to catch up on production these last few weeks before I can do it

[@OhItsThat]

It’s about building a culture around a product or service. Can’t just open businesses for the sake of opening businesses.

[@TurnRacing]

Totally agree!

[@ricohcrap]

It used to confuse me why Heusinkveld pedals cost so much more than Fanatec pedals and still they are sold out in minutes! Now that I bought the ClubSport pedal set V3, I understand why...

[@slatanek]

daceaki chow can u elaborate? My experience with Fanatec so far is really good apart for some bad QA on my GT3RS V2 but it was back i n 2012. My CSL ELITE F1 and my CSR ELITE pedals are working great.

[@ricohcrap]

@@slatanek There's no problem functionality wise, it's just that my CSP still feels like a semi hardcore piece of kit, the clutch doesn't have a bite point feel, it just goes from hard to soft when pressing it, and the throttle travel is longer than my VW Golf, and there's no way to customize it. Maybe I'm just asking too much...

My house number is 42! The youngsters simply will not understand the significance of that number :(
