Sequential shifting for g920?
Is using the g920 compatible shifter on just sequential shifting with it? H-Shifter is too dam hard

I don't think it is, since sequential shifting (like it is present in a racing car) requires one button to shift up and one to shift down instead of a H-pattern to move gears in the correct position.

I'd use shifter paddles which you usually operate with your first three fingers. Keep in mind that you will have to do a lot of pressing the same button and that finding an easy-to-use shifting pattern takes some time and includes skipping of gears, especially when using the Eaton Fuller 18 speed transmission.


Finding a shifting pattern for the G920 shifter is a task for itself, too, but I imagine it to be easier to remember and to actually execute.

In order to for your driving force shifter to be sequential...you will need to mod it.

There is nothing wrong with an H pattern shifter. Use a 6 speed transmission so you don't have to worry about hi/low ranges or splitting gears.

I am using sequential shifting right now. Down for -1 Up for +1
Right up for neutral

There's aftermarket plates than can be put on the Driving Force shifter to use sequential. Worst case, get some rubber bands.

If you don't want to use your shifter to H-gear, you can do like I do:
Realistic automatic gear, and then set the shifters 3'rd gear position to forward dring and the 4'th gear position to reverse driving.

Is it all the pushing buttons while shifting or that you can't find the right gear to shift to? In an act of shameless self-promotion:
