Just got my wheel, out from the shadows I come!

What's your real name, age?
Jon Giakonoski (kudos forever to whomever pronounces it right the first time)

From where you are?
Las Vegas, NV, US

Which Sim games do you play?
Mainly GTR2, the F1 series, and NR2003. I recently bought a new wheel setup though and have started taking my sim racing more seriously--shame, I'd gotten really good at GTR2 and F1 with a game pad. Nowadays I'm training myself on Raceroom, championship'ing on GTR2 and F1, and holding out for a new computer before I dig too deep on pCars, AC, Automobilista, and rF2 (I own all these titles already)

How did You know about EEC Team? (If its a friend or from a different site please tell write who it is too)
OnWheels TV thru Youtube. It's how I keep updated on all sim racing news.

Do you ever race online?
I intend to once I'm confident in my wheel abilities. I can get around a track just fine (It was a virtual disaster at first, like learning how to drive all over again!), now just trying to stay on the track for a full race.

Do you have enough free time to run on sundays? (Only important if you want to drive online)
I have weekends off so yes.

Do you know something about modding, skinning?
I have an interest in llearning to create tracks--fantasy tracks. But I'm holding out for a new computer before making a bon-a-fide hobby of it.

Any problem for you if we give access only for some Mods?
Not that I'm aware.

Are you here only to grab mods and then leave us?
I'm here for mods, but now that I have my wheel I'll feel much more comfortable in conversations.

Please, write a few words about you (hobbies, sports, job, etc): Race Sims and Space Sims are pretty much my hobbies aside from recreational sports and activities. I drive trucks for my job, so sleep is pretty much the only time I don't have a wheel near me. And for reference, I own a Thrustmaster TX Leather Edition and the F1 add on rim. If any Thrustmaster owners have ever used the 599xx Alcantara wheel, is it worth the price?
