Imagine you're a soldier returning from rehab after losing your legs in service to your country. Imagine how much fun it would be to be absolutely as competitive as anyone else, after a bit of practice, using this wheel! This paddle arrangement could be a life changer! Hooray for Fanatec!

As a single monitor guy, I can tell you those clutches in dual axis mode are amazing for look left/right.

Every channel released a review on the launch day of this wheel but still the best detailed review comes from Barry. No surprise, keep it up Barry!

[normanrobinson]

Thanks much for the updated review of the new Fanatec Wheel Rim..!!! ;-) I appreciate the detail you consistently provide for our SIMracing community..!!! ;-)

[wwjnz]

I finally got one of these. Barry's review takes on a whole new life when you own what he's reviewing. LOL

[IronBalls]

Thank you for the indepth review of this nice wheel. Its always intersting to hear you talk and explain everything I want to know

[michaelpickford]

Thanks for your view on the wheel Barry.
I have upgraded to this wheel from a P1 on a clubsport 2.5 and for a reasonable price does feel like a premium upgrade. I'm using the standard wheel mount and haven't noticed any flex and also use VR and the egonomics of this wheel are great for that application.

Was waiting for this.. Thank you Sir Barry

[chrisshaw]

Thanks for this review Barry. As someone who need the analogue paddles to accelerate and brake, it's great to see this function being reviewed in depth, really appreciate that, thank you :-)

[Rapid_GT]

Awesome review and in my "to get" list for sure

[hook]

Just a PSA- I got this wheel in today and it's phenomenal. I know some reviews point out it's more "plasticy" than a club sport wheel or a Podium wheelz but having some of those to compare it to this wheel easily holds it's own... Totally passable for a real car wheel and a joy to use... Actually much more comfortable than my Formula V2... Buy it!!!

[hexenmotorsport]

Awesome review - earned my sub easily.

[MrDss]

I have 2 guys in my nascar 2003 league that are disabled. No use of legs. They use a modified TSW wheel. I just sent them both this video. Very cool for the disabled to have this option since they have no use of there legs. BTW they are both fast on Ovals !
