Richard Burns Rally: RaceHub™ and Game Setup
Released in 2004, Richard Burns Rally remains active through its modding community and continues to be recognized for its driving physics and force feedback. This guide covers the recommended Asetek force feedback settings in RaceHub, in-game wheel settings, telemetry setup for LED and RaceView features, and control assignments in Richard Burns Rally. If you are playing the vanilla version of the game or using the “RallySimFans” Launcher, the settings stay the same.

If your pedal inputs are not registering correctly, it might be because the pedals need to be set to inverted mode. You can adjust these settings in the “Controls” section of the “RallySimFans” Launcher, which accompanies the game.
Telemetry for RaceHub LED and RaceView features
This part of the guide will set up RaceHub to correctly receive data from your game and enable the LED features, as well as RaceView on the Invicta and Forte Formula Pro wheels. Make sure Patch 1.02 for Richard Burns Rally is installed.
- Open RaceHub.
- Go to “Settings” -> “Game Setup” and find Richard Burns Rally on the list.
- Click the + icon if the game hasn’t been detected yet.
Now RaceHub will receive the game data to display the LED and RaceView features. Remember to go to the “LED” and “Display” menus in RaceHub to set up the specific features.
Setting up your controls
Now, all you need to do is assign your controls in-game. As this is a personal preference, we won’t go too much into detail here, except for how it is done.
- Open Richard Burns Rally.
- Navigate to “Options” -> “Controls” -> “Controller Setup”
Go through the whole list and, for each action, assign an input on your gear.
- Click the control you want to set up.
- Use the input you wish to assign (push the pedal/click the button).
Force feedback, telemetry and controls are all set. Time to drive!
