It might look like a glorified garden chair, but it provides all you really need for a basic racing simulator set up. Instead of padded cushions and a solid frame, this chair is essentially just a piece of fabric (albeit nice Alcantara suede fabric) draped over some steel tubes. The reason it’s so affordable is that the manufacturer has cut costs on the build quality. The Playseat Challenge Racing Video Game Chair (Pic Above) is a good entry level choice. They’re so well-respected in the racing simulator space, that even many world-famous F1 divers use their seats to train. Playseat is probably the biggest and best racing simulator seat/cockpit brand on the market. Playseat Challenge Racing Video Game Chair ($235)

The optional Conical Rubber Brake Mod is also included, allowing for an authentic feel with ultra-progressive resistance at the end of the pedal’s travel. The T3PA is fully adjustable (spacing, angle, and gas pedal with an adjustable height setting), and users can even adjust the push force independently for each pedal. The TMX is bundled with the three-pedal Thrustmaster T3PA pedal set, whose pedals and internal structure are all 100% metal. Furthermore, the TMX features a set of metal wheel-mounted sequential paddle shifters. The rim is made out of plastic but is coated with a rubber layer. The TMX Controller operates in 12bit and allows for a 4096 read-out resolution by means of an optical sensor. The TMX wheel is equipped with a high-performance force feedback motor offering adjustable intensity and the 11”/28 cm diameter wheel rim features a 270 to 900 degrees rotation angle.

The other option I'd recommend is the Thrustmaster TMX PRO Racing Wheel (XOne & PC). Thrustmaster TMX PRO Racing Wheel (XOne & PC) It’s a big improvement over most other wheels.Īnd, if fancy paddle shifting isn't your thing, here's a little add-on: It’s progressive, with more tension at the end of its depression to give you much better control over the force of the brake and a more realistic feel. The important improvement in the G29 is the brake. Each has a different tension style, mirroring what you get in a real car. It’s a three-pedal setup: accelerator, brake and clutch. While the base is plastic, the board is substantial, needing less securing than the oldest G-series sets. The pedals are actually a high point unlike most kits. It works very with games like DriveClub, and even better with the more realistic Project Cars and GT Sport. With force feedback you can feel it, because when properly programmed it lets you feel how the car (and the road) is working against you. It gives you a much more direct sensation of control over a car, where with a gamepad you’re left relying on visual and audio cues to judge when a car is about to understeer or oversteer. If you’ve not used a proper force feedback wheel before, you’ll love it. Playing without any customizations, the force is strong enough to cause arm ache after 30-40 minutes play, a clear sign that the wheel has powerful motors working for it. The Logitech G29 has great force feedback. This allows two and a half turns before the wheel locks.

The wheel itself turns around 900 degrees. 27cm in diameter, with a largely metal frame and finished with leather wrap. It does its best to look and feel like a ‘real’ steering wheel. The G29 Racing Wheel from Logitech - This is a good wheel, one that may radically increase your enjoyment of racing games.

These are the very least you should consider, as they give you the full sim-wheel experience. Since this is the first section, I'm going to show you two wheels that I consider 'Entry Level' sim wheels, and not just 'Gimmick Controllers'. (And, you still have to buy a wheel to attach to it, separately.) There are plenty of choices from $20 'Chinese Plastic Hunks of Junk' to hardcore wheel kits that start in the thousands of dollars for just the base unit. So, the only question in this setup is: What wheel do I buy? If you already have a PC, PS4, or Xbox, then all you need is to purchase a wheel + pedals, clamp it to a card-table and off you go.

And, that's a good place to start on our setup. The most important part of a car is the connection it gives you to the road. It's let you get a feel for using the wheel and pedals, while not requiring the budget of a full setup
