    The great thing about these is you don't have to comprimise on quality. These literally do the exact same thing as buttkickers, but for 1/4 of the price. I've driven my friend's rig with Buttkickers and mine with the dayton audio kickers and I can't tell a discernable difference.

    I like it. There are some areas which could be improved, but overall this work around looks like it increases the longevity of the wheel. I've had mine for approximatley 2 years and it's now showing with worn rubber grips, cracked housing above the shifters, etc. I don't mind the rubber grips, but the wear is becoming ecsessive to the point of being uncomfortable. Fanatec doesn't seem the best when it comes to after market servicing and general customer communication. Irresepctive of the price point fo this wheel it's obvious that the unit has design defects, its a shame Fanatec doesn't provide basic replacement parts for what, overall is an expensive hobby. Good stuff ; ).

    5:25 Yeah a lot of shops are like this, but its not that they're building a different setup just to give to the house drivers. The sets are all the same, but a lot of times the house drivers want it set up a specific way to fit their driving style or they might find something that works a little better and adjusts the set accordingly. Set builders ain't perfect, but a lot of times its not a whole different setup, it's the same set being sold maybe with a different spring package in it or different trackbar adjustments

    20:05 Their the same way too with instructions and information when buying a product. You sort of have to just figure it out yourself. I bought their Gas & brake pedal. Once I figured it out I really was super pleased!! So I just now ordered their clutch pedal. They are super helpful when you tug on their cape. I've been pondering wondering if I want to graduate from my GT-DD Fanatec to either a Simucube, Sim Magic or Asetek. But I think I'm gonna run with VRS Force Pro! Asetek uses the same motor. Sim Magic is chinese 100%. Now not to bash Chinese, but in my past experiences often the components are of lesser quality somewhere along the line. Their also newer and haven't passed the test of time. They have a 1 year warranty? It's either a Simucube 2 Pro or VRS. If their wheel base is as cool as their pedals I'd dig on it! I know that VRS has built up their firmware for it too.

    • @DragonFlySlayer-wf6ne
      @DragonFlySlayer-wf6ne 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The simucube is also shaped like the same motor too. ? Makes me wonder Is their really a difference other than the wheel mount.

    • @Area51AlienFactory
      @Area51AlienFactory 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I really like Fanatec ecosystem. I have a DD1 for my primary rig and a CSL DD for my kids and a backup for me if I would even need it. I love their universal hubs to use any 3rd party rim I want and huge selection of wheels and solid pedal offerings. It is just a shame how bad the customer service has gotten after their black friday mess and the financial problems of the company. I am really hopefully the corsair purchasing them will straighten out all of their issue and keep the product quality has high as it has been. If I were to get a new wheel base I think I would get the new Fanatec Clubsport DD or DD+. Honesty, I don't see how a person would ever use more than 8-12 Nm of force froma wheel base. My DD1 can do up to 20Nm, but I typically use it comfortably between 6-8Nm. So when you look for a new direct drive wheel base once you get past like 12Nm the extra power is pretty useless for 99.9% of sim racers. So you are really looking for smoothness and wheel rim compatibility. Fanatec's DD1 and DD2 where not smooth feeling wheel bases for the first couple years they where out because the used the belt driven CSW and CSL Elite base drivers. However, when the CSL DD came out fanatec completely rewrote the drivers for the ground up for direct driver wheels which totally changed the feel of my DD1. I have tried the top end Simucube at micro center before and it does feel a tiny bit smoother than my DD1, but the extra price for the Simucube for the very tiny bit of improvement is crazy. I have also hard from people that the new Clubsport DD wheel bases are even smoother than the DD1 and DD2. If you have liked your CSL DD and the Fanatec ecosystem in general I should really consider the Clubsport DD or Clubsport DD+ before dropping $1500-$2000 on one of the "super high end" direct drive wheelbases. Just my thoughts though and I am not arguing that the new Clubsport DDs are technically better than the super expensive one.

    • @DragonFlySlayer-wf6ne

      @@Area51AlienFactory Yea, I hear ya on that. Too bad Fanatec has sort of come to a $$ fight. i do like my Club Sport 2.5 with additional podium paddles with my GT-DD pro. I also have their pedal system. Through the lot I have grown a bit in my driving in a short time I think. Of pedals it seems like we have "Dampeners" Load cells" or Hydraulic. I ended up feeling like I needed something in a wheel base that will provide me with some more or finer detailed information. Something I can feel the cars suspension and tire detail & weight balance a bit finer or smoother with force to add to it. I think all these systems are good and have much to offer. For me I narrowed it down to either a VRS or a Simucube base. I have become so impressed with my VRS load cell pedals that I did order their clutch too. I've really learned to like GT3 and GT overall as it is fun. I'd also like to learn to drift. I'm a Newb" But I think I'm gonna get me a Simucube 2 Pro cause looking at it from a mechanical stand point I see two Mean Well power supplies that run 48 volts at 280 watts. Two of them! "?" I started thinking and pondering how that the firmware and filter sectioning may require that much power to run and process it's data I'm thinking. Could this be the data I seek? It's pulling 560 Watts! Just over half a KW! ? I bet that provides a hell of some action for my hands and chassis! I'm not crazy about that cause I just landed solar on my house which is working well. LOL. I also built me a ASR 4 Sim Chassis. Their out of Canada and the aluminum stock is US grade stock and it's machined cut and powder coated in Canada. Like VRS they are also sim racers in their circles. Of all my choices they recommended a Simucube 2 Pro. He said I won't regret. Then I see Berry Roland from the Sim Race Garage break it down for us and it's built very well. I've been pondering over the concept of an "Eco" system. Fanatec has us locked in. My VRS pedals are really nice! With a Simucube I can mount up any wheel I choose and just run it to a USB connection. This seems to afford me a bigger part of the sim industries products as an eco system. I feel more unlimited. Maybe I'll land a Gomez wheel, when ever. I am told by more experienced sim racers that I'll see or feel quite a difference. I'm gonna keep my Fanatec stuff cause it's good. And Sim Magic at least their cool enough to leave their wheel bases unlocked so you can mount any wheel you want to attempt to mount up. Asetek uses the same motors as VRS as it is an industry standard. I like VRS! I bet that wheel base gets the job done! Asetek Invicta ?! Great action! I think honestly all the options are winners. A DD1 or DD2?! Lot of action! The simucube does seem to be pretty high on the food chain. So I'll just get it one piece at a time. No hurry. My GT-DD will keep me company in the mean time.

  • @HeyItsEmilyLove

    Personally the “elite” setups is what makes me not want to pay for anything from them. If I’m willing to pay for their drivers setups, that shouldn’t be nerf’d just so they can charge more for an elite setup. Seems shady to me

    • @Area51AlienFactory
      @Area51AlienFactory 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I thought something similar at first about intentional nerfing of the driver setups. However, I did some research on their website and then asked the owner Mike Ouellette about it. The conversation was almost 2 years ago so I hope I remember it correctly now. But the driver vs elite setups from them have nothing to do with nerfing the setup, but rather who the builder was. So they usually list the setup builder on the webpage for each car/track setups offered and you will also notice the majority of their cars/tracks don't even offer an elite setup. So, in order for them to call a setup "ELITE" and charge extra for it the builder has to have an iRating above a certain level. If I remember right it was over 5k. If the builder's iRating is below 5k for example then the setup could not be offered as an ELITE setup. Now just a few of my personal deductions and thoughts from using their service off and on for the past couple years. I have noticed their have been only baseline and driver (subsciption) setups available cars/tracks where the build was still over 5k iRating. I am guessing in that case the builder would have to want to try and create a second ELITE setup at that point. But I have also seen times where the builder of the driver setup and the elite setup were different (one under 5k and the other above). So this leads me to believe there is a different paid structure for the sub setups and the single purchase elite setups. Conclusion: 1) Diver setup - If the builder's irating is under 5k the setup is the best they could build and is not nerfed. 2) Driver setup - if the builder is over 5k and their is no "ELITE" setup offered then the driver setup is the best they could build and not nerfed. 3) Driver setup - if the builder is under 5k and an Elite setup is offered by another builder when neither setup is nerfed, just buit by different drivers with different irating skill levels. However, I doubt the ELITE setup would ever be slower than the driver setup. 4) Driver setup - if there is an ELITE setup also available and is built by the exact same builder (over 5k iR), then is this case I would be a bit more suspisous of what you are concerned about. Become the same person built two setups and the ELITE is obviously faster. I have actually seen this a few times on the NASCAR setups in the past. However if you are buy a pretty much all in one setup subscription for nearly everything in iRacing for only 10 or 11 per month like Majors and VRS offered I would not expect the same level of speed as shop that sells individual setups for 10-15 each or a sub for only one car for $30 plus a month. That is a huge price difference and your expections should be based around the price.

      @Area51AlienFactory 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, if you do a lot of road racing having a GT3/Formula style rim is really nice. Also, I have been using this rim when racing NASCAR stuff on road courses as well. It has actually improved my lap times because of the better reflex response times you get from a 30-31cm GT3 rim vs a larger 35cm/14inch NASCAR style rim. But on oval tracks the precision of the larger rim is more benefical. Thats why having 2 good rims is nice one for oval and one for road. Howeverm if a person is just starting out and can only afford one rim with their original setup purchase, a quality round rim at 32-33 cm (12.5-13 inch) would be a good all around choice.

    I wonder if I could hook this up to a headphone-amplifier that also has output-options for speakers. - I'm just not sure about both whether or not I can get an output-signal while also using the headphones, AND, even if it does do it simultaneously, if it's enough power. - If that would work, I could potentially leave out buying an amp, if I'd get into this method. - I need things to be streamlined anyway, because I need to be able to set up my rig onto my regular desk. I simply have the wheel ready to go, apart from the USB-cable, to be mounted to the desk. - It's just those additional two or three wires, though... AND another power-brick... or two... But perhaps it could be doable with some streamlining.

    • @Area51AlienFactory
      @Area51AlienFactory 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree the buttkicker transducers have a higher fidelity than the Dayton Audio tansducers. That means you can probably put I higher number of different effects through the buttkickers and still feel the difference in viberations. However, I don't care much for the amps provided with the Buttkickers, they are prone to overheating, at least they used to be and they didn't save the volume settings when turning them off and back on again. Also I only use about 4 effects and the Daytons can handle those just fine for a 3rd of the cost. Thank you for the feedback I think you are right.

      I am glad the videos are helping you figure things out. So in general the workbooks should not get outdated and should last a long time. The only big update that I have ever made to our MoTec workbooks was when the NextGen car came out because its suspension is done differently that the other oval cars. The NextGens are setup with the same kind of suspension that is on GT3 cars in iRacing. There is rarely ever any need to update the MoTec workbooks, however if there is ever a big change that requires an update I will repost a new updated workbook.

      We don't sell setups. We are just a team of guys that build sets for out team and then do these informational videos. But I have done reviews of setup shops. I also try to give people resources to get free setups to help them as well.

      Yeah I know the UK kept the pound even when they were in the EU and then the whole Brexit thing happened. I guess I just wan't thinking about that when I made the video. I am sorry about the bad info on the money conversion.

    • @Area51AlienFactory
      @Area51AlienFactory 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I went and checked out Coach Dave Academy. It looks like a pretty nice place for ACC setups and driving tools. However, for iRacing he is only offering setup packs for 9 road series, mostly GT3/IMSA stuff. He also offers data bundles for a small handful of fixed series (I am assuming that is hotlap times, maybe replay file of how to run best line, and possibly some driver input telemetry data). So I have never driven his setups before so I can't speak to which setups are better for the same cars. However, for iRacing, I would go with VRS if choosing between them. iRacing has a ton of content and once you get into it you might want to try stuff other than the 9 series Coach Dave offers setups. VRS has a team of builders and offers setup and data packs for nearly all (with a few exceptions) the series in iRacing accross all disiplines. That would be the main factor in my descision. I race serveral non GT3/IMSA road series, Rally Cross (super fun), Oval, and even Dirty Oval occasionally. As long as your iRating is below 3k (like most people), VRS provides solid competitive setups for just about everything and I recommend them to everyone starting out in iRacing.

    He was stopped up high and locked down. You just had a racing deal man. It sucks but had he not kept it locked down and collected people trying get going it would have been on him. Some one should have called that out though.

    • @Area51AlienFactory
      @Area51AlienFactory ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, I don't think there was a way to avoid it unless someone called it out as soon as he went around and said he was up high and to go low. I was just irritated because it was a single car self spin that caused it. Once he lost control and went around he locked it up and did what he could. But going around by himself was bad on his part. (And I know, we have all done it at some point.)

  • @chadalca17

    It's crazy how we can completely destroy these cars, but as long as we can get them repaired and no engine damage, we're still competitive even at charlotte? I think that's why we keep having so many cautions, those causing and involving in all the wrecks repair their cars and head on out to do it again. Myself included... i should have been junk after slamming into the 3 car. Bummer on the end of your race. Looks like you were approaching race as I was. No reason to be battling side by side early in race, chill... save tires, save car and sometimes it works, sometimes not

  • @MarkMoughamian
    @MarkMoughamian ปีที่แล้ว

    Sorry I called you out in that race. Looking back at replays I can see it wasn't intentional, just bad racecraft. For future reference, when these tires are old and get slid, you really can't expect to throttle it back up hard without spinning. Really gotta ease back on them after slides like that. I know it wasn't intentional, but it was just bad decision making. Hope you have better ones

    I was #3 raced around you a bunch. After i got got caught in a late race caution after a long green flag and everyone pitted except the 13... i rolled the dice and took 2 with hope some others behind me would take 2.... too, but they did not. Started 3rd behind 13 and 9. Fell to 6th from 4th after I thought the race was over... I too thought we didn't have GWC. Thought overall fun race. thanks for streaming!
