@slaphead90 5 месяцев назад

I was looking at this however there were two things about it that made it a no-buy for me: 1) 320mm is just too wide for me 2) I drive Porsche

@AllardWolff 5 месяцев назад

Grid Engineering have a Porsche wheel. Its only 2500 :D

@Sean-ps3ec 5 месяцев назад

I use a Simagic button box along with a Turn Racing 305mm rim for my Porsche and BMW cars. The button box comes with clutches. But it's like 400 for just the button box

@Legenwait4itdary 5 месяцев назад

get a cammus c5, best buy i did in recent years, just wow compact and nice feeling because the DD is direct on the wheel

@Jaaames 5 месяцев назад

Fairplay, makes sense. Probably the wrong wheel for a Porsche guy😉

@Sean-ps3ec 5 месяцев назад

I bought it on release day. I love the wheel. yes it is big and you will have to adjust to it if you have nothing bigger than 290mm. But once you have adjusted to it it's an amazing wheel

@Jaaames 5 месяцев назад

Everyone complaining about the price forgetting the BMW wheel Fanatec released is almost 1k aud more expensive 🤣 would be cool to have but the price is almost impossible to justify other than wank factor

@10mmGR 5 месяцев назад

Yeah but the fanatec bmw wheel is an actual bmw gt3 wheel. This is just a replica. Wouldnt pay for either of them though. If it cost more than 700 it better have a screen on it.

@Jaaames 5 месяцев назад

I agree, compared to a lot of other wheels out there, the price isn't too bad. Generally speaking tho it's a lot of money, so I do get why people can't justify buying it.

@EthanDean57 5 месяцев назад

"Wank factor" will be added to my vocabulary henceforth

@mellosoft 5 месяцев назад

That's why I went for the FCore with upgraded clutch and paddles

@Sean-ps3ec 5 месяцев назад

Yeah, it really shouldn't be used as a primary wheel. If you have a few wheels and like to collect this is a great wheel. Or if you have other wheels for other disciplines this is a great GT3/2/4 wheel

@virtualawakening2299 5 месяцев назад

It's sleek, elegant and pure. Maybe the most beautiful wheel ever. It's definitely minimalist in style. If I were an AMG fan and had loads of spare cash, it would be a beautiful choice. I don't think I'd like the 320mm size. I have a 300mm GT style wheel and I'm thinking I'd like to try a formula 280mm wheel. I'll enter a giveaway next time you hold one. lol

@supralova123abc 5 месяцев назад

@Jaaames 5 месяцев назад

My first wheel was a G920, did the job for me at the time🙂

@lukefisher8417 5 месяцев назад

I would absolutely love this wheel, but with that being said, I feel like the F core would just suit me better mentally just because of the fact when I wasn’t driving Mercedes cars, I would be weirdly bothered by it I think maybe not who knows we’ll find out once I get a computerup and running

Than GSI ? I've owned the CSX3 and the Fpro along with currently owning the MercGT wheel in the vid I now own the X-29 and the Hyper P1. Both GSI wheels are substantially better in almost everyway aside from the X-29 not having a CF front plate.

hello James! Have you ever had any driving lessons / course in terms of sim racing or were you just naturally fast? Not asking for any specifics, just curiosity - I'm thinking myself of buying some online course, maybe some books (already have one, just started reading).

@notdreadyet33 5 месяцев назад

Isn't it the same size as the real car you race? lol My 300 Cube wheel is really nice just too small for anything but open wheel. BTW - You can get your screen a few inches closer, any reason you have it that far back? TBF it will have to be higher

@Jaaames 5 месяцев назад

I drove a McLaren GT3 when I've raced in real life previously, the wheel was smaller than this one. I know some people have the screen as close as possible, for me I'm comfortable where it's at now🙂

@notdreadyet33 5 месяцев назад

@@Jaaames That makes sense. I was thinking you were in an AMG this season, that's why I said that. IIRC I think the McLaren GT3 has a 300 or 305 wheel. I got to drive a Super Trofeo and Challenge car, they both had wheels that size. 320 is surprising, but at least you have something that will also work really well for the historic cars in AMS2. lol

@Sideways_Singh 5 месяцев назад

@@itshammertimeF1 idk which sim ur playing but it definitely isnt different in the sim. If ur using the right car 320 is good, it depends on the cars rotation, like some cars are 720° some are 600° if it has less then bigger wheel helps. Its not for every car, one wheel wont work for every car, just like in the real gt3 car.
