Moza for sure. Just returned my TX-PC with pedals to grab a R5 or an R9. Thanks for the review/comparison family!!

[chilledburrito]

that's so cool that you can have your Sim racing rig in your van if you want to, whats even cooler is that you can drift with that much smoke and not instantly smash into a wall.

[Jnibbs]

I’m going from a tx to r9. It just shipped so I’m excited !

[eg-xfic]

Is it best to skip the entry level wheel and go straight to Moza if I have nothing at the moment?

[stonyfieldmotorsports]

I live in an class a rv and also have my rig in the passengers seat. Kudos on the spatial sacrifice.

[alaaddingg]

Great comparison man! Appreciate it for the video.

Waiting for my R9v2 and CS v2 to arrive. Currently, I have a Thrustmaster TX with a shifter and some old Fanatec CSR elite pedals. Will be running the Moza with the Fanatec pedals and Thrustmaster shifter. A real mixed bag lol.

moza fs! Nice videro man! love the build, just subscribed

[profitpluto]

Thrust master is disappointing with the amount of plastic for $500. Recently got the TX from a g920 and parts of the 920 feel more solid lol. Have option to return til new year so if something goes wrong I’ll go Moza maybe then keep my 920 for console

[xenomorph]

Currently have a t500rs.
If it breaks im going for the Moza R16 and i get the feeling a will be disappointed!

[tigerbalm]

Sold my CSR Elite, ordered a Moza R5 bundle... CSR was fukken old! Only spent $100 from selling CSR to get the R5!

[sleitn]

very nice comparison man!👍🥳🥳 i would love to see a review on that handbrake !😇

[MagicAyrtonforever]

The t3pm pro pedals are very good with the cone mod I have - My tlcms are nice but not that much better.

You should do a comparison between the ts-xw/ts-pc/tgt with the moza r9

[mcdood]

Just out of Curiosity, what region of the world are you in? I am in Northern Alberta Canada, and I find either availability or shipping costs make it very difficult to get your hands on highend Thrust-master wheels/bases, Moza racing or Fanatec, really anything good. I just want a Direct Drive wheel so bad and willing to pay for it but when its 300$ extra in shipping / customs I feel like I am losing alot of value. I was looking at getting an r5 bundle but after shipping it would cost me $1000 CDN

[sadrig-cppw]

how long does it take to arrive to the US after placing the order? ?

[al-dorifto]

In Australia the moza r9 and the tx and the t-gt II are all the same price $799.. and I'm talking just the base no wheel included. Sorry I just checked it wasn't tx it was ts xw that was 799 the tx base no wheel is 500

[mr.j]

I will buy a Moza R9...




For Euro truck simulator 😆✌

[levro]

Hey man what type of PC what you recommend to pair with the moza r9

[HoltSimRacing]

I’ve been looking to buy a tmx, I now got a g920. Should I switch??
