Soon the WRC 8 game is released.
If I were to buy a WRC gaming/simulation set up today, what should I buy?
What is used in e-sport, and when WRC and rally drivers using when sim-training before real life events?

Definitely not Wrc game. The only thing close to rally sim is Richard Burns Rally I think, but it is very old, though it has strong modding community.
Actually I read this yesterday "Last weekend was held the 6th European Rally Championship at Czech Republic. Well-known Nikolay Gryazin competed there too. For many rally fans, who follow the results, it was a bit unusual to see Russian's times at special stages 3 and 7. Nikolay won both stages confidently. Later driver acknowledged that the Semetin stage he knows from "Richard Burns Rally" platform."
That game is legendary. But I never have a time to really play with setup that can help me from drivong better.Quote:

After installing of the RBR continue on http://rbr.onlineracing.cz/index.php...l&p=howtostart For sure it will take you some time to familiarize yourself with all those tons of mods but you won't regret.
What kind of hardware should i buy?
Wheel
pedals
Seat/console
What is ok priced and gives good feedback to the driver?
Depends on a budget. I think Logitech g27 is good, but fanatec products can provide more realistic experience and feel.Quote:

For the hardware a decent proposal is also thrustmaster products, but if you want "real" feeling is required a direct drive wheel!
Do you think Path of Exile would be a good alternative for WRC 8? :D
Recently, at the end of the stage I noticed that Nicolay Gryazin had Richard Burn Rally Pro sticker on his car, which appears to be some all encompassing mod for RBR.
