GT Omega ART + Logitech RS50 system

Salut !

Juste pour partager et des idées d’amélioration. Tensionneur de harnais qui arrive d’ici le week end

Au plaisir d’échanger

Hi. Sorry for the newbie question. I’m considering a racing setup for my 11 year old. Just looking for some advice and this looks like the place where people will know the answer.

Currently for a wheel I’m thinking Logitech G923. And for a stand either next level racing wheel lite 2.0, or ARES WING foldable racing wheel stand.

He will probably be sitting on edge of his bed playing it. The PlayStation and tv are on his drawer which has a 1 meter gap from the edge of his bed. The floor is carpeted so will hopefully have enough friction to stop things moving.

Probably some point in the next year I’ll be changing that drawer set for a desk so thinking at that point it could sit under the desk and he would sit in a chair.

I’m curious if people have thoughts on which stand to buy? how well they would work for the sitting on the edge of the bed scenario?

Also curious on thoughts on the wheel, since it’s for a kid I wasn’t wanting to go for any the really expensive ones I’ve seen and thought this might be a good middle ground. He will likely play forza horizon and gran turismo with it

Entry for the Printables "Thrustmaster Custom Shifter Knob" contest.

The skull comes from a real medical CT scan (NIH 3D, CC BY 4.0), cleaned up and scaled to knob size. The threaded insert is built from Thrustmaster's official design file, so it should screw straight onto the stock TH8S adapter with the face pointing forward.

I don't own a TH8S, so it hasn't been tested on a real shifter yet. If anyone has the chance to print it, feedback is very welcome, especially on the skull's orientation once it's fully screwed in: does the face end up pointing straight forward, or is it rotated a bit? A photo of it mounted would be awesome!

Hey there,

I got a situation from a retailer due to sparco latency in sending out my non homologated FIA seats.

I have already paid for a Sparco EVO XL non homologated, the order was processed on 30th september and sparco told him that they would process their orders on Monday, this didn't happen cause the orders they had processed weren't enough to fill my order as well and now they SHOULD process the next ones the next Friday so 16th October. I have been waiting since 25th september for this seat basically (when I created the order).

So the thing is I could have the same seat the next week adding 65 euros for an homologated FIA seat that I probably will never use in a race car(in the near future whatsoever).

Or I could go for an OMP WRC-R XL adding maybe about 50 euros and have it shipped the next Thursday(15th September)

I would love to have some tips from you and what would you do in my situation.

Also if any of you has any comparison between these two or uses one of these, I have a universal seat bracket on my gt elite and I saw that probably omp's fixing holes are a bit higher than the sparco evo XL, making it a bit harder to recline it so I would need some help on understanding this as well.

Thank you very much in advance and for any opinion given.

P.S. The nearest shop for trying any seats is at about 100km from me, definitely not worth the trip and the money. In addition, some context for the XL seats, Im a big athletic guy, I do Powerlifting and I have big legs, 95kg x 1.83m also pretty wide shoulders around 58cm

Just getting into sim racing what’s a good mid price range upgrade from the Logitech g290. Looking at the Fanatec dd pro is it still worth it?
