Are you thinking about building
Are you thinking about building your first sim racing or sim drifting rig? Or are you thinking about upgrading an existing one? Well, there are a ton of options on the market from lower priced setups like the Logitech G29, to higher priced setups like the Simagic Alpha Mini. Having owned both, plus the Thrustmaster T300, I decided to give a detailed breakdown on the considerations when buying a wheelbase to hopefully help make your decision easier.
Where my last video focused more higher level on your complete sim racing setup, this one digs deeper into wheelbases which is probably the biggest decision you'll have to make. Do you buy lower end to save money, or is it worth spending money on something high end? Whether your drifting, racing, or both, this video should should help get you pointed in the right direction. To note, I also talk about the Fanatec CSL DD, Moza R5, and Moza R9.
Topics in this video:
0:00 Intro
0:38 Breakdown on the difference between Gear, Belt, and Direct Drive
1:09 Price - Including Fanatec CSL DD, Moza R3, Thrustmaster T300, and more
2:27 Build Quality - Differences in quality between gear, belt, and Direct Drive wheelbases
3:42 Driving Experience - Why you should stop buying the Logitech G29
4:47 Driving Experience - Is Direct Drive that much better than gear or belt?
6:02 Conclusion - Is the Thrustmaster T300 still worth it, and should you buy direct drive?
7:39 Conclusion - Flow chart to help you decide which sim racing wheel to buy
