Got all mine setup... Formula Rim wont mount to the V2... Any trick??... Locates ok but it seems like it just won't slip further on that last final bit. Getting frustrated with it. BMW Wheel goes on ok but that one is a pain in the ass to get off... Anyone come across this yet?

Brent, I noticed the same thing with my Formula Carbon Rim also. My BMW wheel goes on and off OK. Those little balls seem to get stuck in the holes when retracting the release mechanism but I'm sure they will loosen with time and it will get better the more you use it. I was able to seat it fully after repeated attempts but it did take some force. I will check blog to see if there is a solution.
If any of my fellow Aussie guys/gals want invite codes to purchase the Clubsport V.2 Wheel Base, please inbox me a PM and i will forward it to you.
I also have 2 codes available, so message me if you're interested but remember first in best dressed.
As one of the previous memebers mentioned please ensure that you are a registered member at the Fanatec Australia site and you supply me with the same e-mail address you used during registration, this will ensure that the code will automatically appear in your user profile and you will be notified by e-mail.
Anyone have any news on there base shipping out. I ordered mine 11/15 and on my acct it's saying end of January. But I still haven't received any emails on a specific ship date. I know it's only a week away, but I'm getting anxious.

I ordered mine on 10-22, but i had to email them to get the response "end of Jan" date as well. so your order has wording after the "estimated shipping date"??
I sent fanatec an email with a question about all the different pieces in my up and coming order.they emailed back to me within a half hour and said everything was good and to expect shipping at the end of the month so we must all be in the same boat literally.what do you think Feb. 7th maybe?so be it.ill take them at their word.

All it says is estimated ship date 01/30/2015. When emailed them at the beginning of the month there reply was end of January for the base and wheel and end of February for the shifter.

Did you happen to order your shifter with the V2 Base? I did the same back in Nov. and they told me the shifter would be in before the base and they could ship it earlier at no charge.....hope i will get the base and shifter together. My expected date is 1/30/15 as well.
..Interesting, my account doesnt say an expected date but I do have the email exchange with Fanatec saying end of Jan delivery. Im sure though I wont have to dig up that email, still a week remaining..

John I did order the sequential shifter at the same time. When I emailed fanatic about shipment they said the shifter would go out end of February, I just hope they go ahead and ship my base and wheel out end of January and maybe I'll get lucky and the shifter will come with it. I know we're on the home stretch, but the closer it gets the more anxious I get. I hope all this excitement is warranted. Have a good one.

I hope I didn't mess up by not taking early delivery of the shifter.....I was just trying to be nice and it would make it much harder to look at my rig with everything less the new base. I hope Jan. 30th comes true and everyones equipment works flawlessly. After reading some post about fan probs, units shutting off after 5-10 minutes of use, and grinding noises while turning the wheel I have got a little nervous. BUT, I know Fanatec has a great customer support and will take care of their units as my first CSS had an issue and it was replaced in a timely manner.

Good Luck to All
Great outlook John. There are bound to be a few issues. Every product whether new or old has some issues in manufacturing. The determining factor IMO is the service that follows these issues. Fanatec is great to deal with when it comes to customer and product issues in my experience. I hope everyone has your outlook and positive attitude.
Australian customers who are still waiting should check their email for despatch notice. It looks like the units are starting to ship. I just got an email from Endor Australia saying my two items have been shipped (endor is fanatec).
