Hey Geek Street, great video and we appreciate the inclusion of ourselves into the video. We just wanted to add that our wheel stand also has upgradability to a full cockpit if people purchase the rear seat frame. We noticed this information was possibly missed, so just wanted to add it here for you. Keep doing a great job with your content!
You are correct, we had a similar design a long time ago which was our Pro Cockpit. We felt it wasn't suited to the modern racer and it was effectively replaced by the TITAN Cockpit while our ART cockpit grew from strength to strength in the same time.
I have a aluminium profile wheel stand from Sim Labs. Love it. Nice and compact. Cost me like £250 with the seat supporter. I don't need a full rig. And a metal chair that is strong so I can stomp on that 200 kgs load cell and the chair can take it no problems and no fatigue either.
I have a version of the first wheel stand and it’s actually upgradeable. It has support bars for extra support with stronger ffb settings, and I’ve also added on the mount and seat with recline and slider ! I recently went from a Logitech driving force pro from 2005 to a moza r12 and it’s been standing up great even at full ffb in assetto corsa competizione I believe everything was just under $400 usd
An excellent simulator rig seat can definitely help improve lap times and maintain stability. I recently purchased a GT-Lite setup from CONSPIT to upgrade my gear, and I can't wait for it to arrive!
I got the GT omega wheel stand and does the job nicely for me having limited space. I got pretty thick carpet so no problems with the seat moving and with it being so small I can easy move it in front of my desk when I want to use it then simply fold it up and put to one side when I'm not.
I am currently using a GT Omega Classic (actually have 2, as I bought a sealed one at an Amazon discount store for $20 CND). I have the older model from about 1-1/2 years ago that did not come with the office chair stopped, so I bought flat replacements for the wheels. As a side note, not sure about the new GT Omega Classic that has the wheel stopper, but the older one does have a separate (sold separately) seat frame extension. There are also other brand of seat frame extension that fit sold on Amazon. The main reason I got the Classic was for lack of space. The room my setup is in doubles as my girlfriend and my collectors display room and office area. So the idea of a fold up wheel stand was awesome, until I added extra shelves to it (in all I have the 2 it came with, bought a spare shelf, and added the 2 from the discount set). How (because there isn't enough room them mount them all) and why? How took a lot of planning to get them mounted together. And why, so that I could have my shifter one one, my handbrake beside and at a similar height, a mouse pad shelf and a keyboard shelf.
Awesome video!. I can advocate for the Playseat Trophy Logitech G edition. Perfect for small spaces and no noticeable flex with my Logitech Pro Wheel and Pedals. "Best Rig"
I think the playseat trophy is the most aesthetically pleasing to me, has little to no flex and still retains portability, with the optional shifter if desired. I think it's the jack of all trades here, esp paired with the logitech pro wheel/pedals. I know everyone says to get an alu rig, but they just look too industrial to me and are a PITA to move around. Thanks for the video!
@@GeekStreet just curious, do you have a favorite wheel and pedal set so far? Your video last year on the PSVR2 and GT7 is the reason I'm down this rabbit hole and have been diligently thrifting FB marketplace for the logitech suite of products 😛
@@pelvispresley22 if you got about $800 (for the base and rim) the alpha mini from simmagic is the way to go from my research, plan on picking one up myself.. below that I'd look at the csl elite DD from fanatec. They also got a good deal going that comes with the pedals for like $600. I been using the v3's from fanatec for about 3 years now highly recommend them if you got the $.
i picked up a tubular frame one from a company called vivo on amazon ,was $500 CAD shifter and monitor mount included ,i have a moza R5 attached to it and loving it !
Found a full racing set up on marketplace, 250,- and logitech steering wheel with peddels and shifter, its the meta if you want to get in sim racing, buy second hand, if you want more expensive gear you can upgrade later
All you need to know is do you need foldable/portable or do you have room? Find a budget and goal. Then find out which has the cheapest shipping/product total. Then buy. One company in EU will kill US buyers for shipping. Vice versa.
I believe that the Playseat Evolution is a great budget choice.. It costs around 300€ new and you can get it used for as low as 90€. I got mine used and only required a seat cover as its white leather seat was quite used up (the vinyl coating started falling off). It's not perfect but it's great for getting into sim racing. It can even support a DD Wheel and minor mods make it even greater. The Pedal stand is rather flimsy and needs an additional part (wood or whatever) to make it stable.
I have the playseat challenge for my previous logi G29, basically made for each other, absolutely great. I upgraded to a Fanatec CSL DD 8Nm and Loadcell brake, the 8Nm is absolutely the limit for the PS challenge. And I don’t use 100% brake force anyway, anymore than 50% does the seat not tolerate. But I’m happy with the rigidity, I purchased a reinforcement kit for the PS challenge which is much needed and makes it perfect for me. I’ll be happy with this setup for many years.
I ended up with a TR8 Pro just because of the ease of assembly and aesthetics. An 80/20 rig like the TR120 would be more customizable but I didn't want the hassle of taking hours to put everything together and the trouble I'd have in case I need to move it for any reason.
Best rig out of all those? I really like the Trak Racer TRX with it's tubular structure. Years ago, I used to have Trak Racer's older tubular models (with monitor mount), but there were some welding weak points. Hence I replaced it with Simetik K2-R, which offers good adjustability in a fairly small footprint. I also like its aesthetics. 7:55
I recently got a PC but before I had a Logitech g29 wheel+shifter now Im thinking about getting a USB handbrake. Whats the best one and what to look when buying it?
As an extremely causal gamer who may play the racing games 1 or 2 hours a month max, I have to go with wheel stand that can be fold up easily and put away. Foldable seat can be an option too but I don't even play enough to justify a game console.
Ive been looking for a new cockpit so this couldn't come at a better time lol. Does the tr120 or the next level racing gt elite come with a butt kicker mount?
“ Best Rig” I just recently purchase the Logitech Challenge X to use with my Logitech G Pro Wheel and it works very well together. Thanks for the reviews as it made it alot easier to make a purchase decision!
If you don't like the looks of an aluminium rig like me then have a look at the RSR21 from Rock Solid Rigs starting around £ 400. I have one and am very pleased with it easily modifiable as it's made from wood
@@GeekStreet well its beach plyboard that used in aircraft. If you look on TH-cam for Rock Solid Rigs you'll find reviews on it. I got mine with the two monitor mounts and was so pleased with the looks and how it's built 👍 from me.
i know i'm 9 months too late, but a small Tier list figure at the conclusion of the video would be a great way to remind people how you rated the different options along with prices if possible. very good and informative video, thanks!
The GT Omega Classic wheel stand also has a rear seat frame add-on, much like the Next Level alternative you featured immdiatly after. I own the GT Omega classic wheel stand with the rear seat frame add-on, and it is all available to purchase on GT Omega's website.
Hi, I'd be grateful if you can advise me on items and models to get for my 1st racing sim. I am completely new to this and my budget is £2k. I am looking at track racer tr8 rig but can you advise me on following: - what DD wheel base to get - what pedals to get - what tv and size to get for mounted TV - what gearbox to get - what additional brackets I would need - anything else you would advise Your help is appreciated PS I'll be running a PS5
Alrighty, this video helped QUITE a bit! I’ve been wanting to get into sim racing for quite some time and always thought it was going to cost a bunch of money. But from someone who lives in the US this actually doesn’t seem that bad. From the video I was looking into the Next level NLR-R001 or the Next level racing GTElite, out of those two which would you prefer? Another question is (If you know) how tall are both of them? Cause I’m Working with a limited space and need them to fit under a space. One other thing is which, wheel/pedal, shifter combo would you recommend I buy? I’d like to be able to race Both F1/iracing, + Gran turismo and all the other games, so what would you recommend? Anything helps!
I‘m thinking of buying one that simulates the movement of the car. Seen it some time ago and now I want to pull the trigger. Anybody have any experience with that kind of rig? Is it worth it for the price?
Why isn't there any mention of the CONSPIT GT-lite stand in this video? It's a real pity since it clearly has a stronger design sense and better quality.
Are there any sim racing setups that have hand controls? Hand controls for someone like me who is a paraplegic and don't have the ability to use my feet?
Hi, I would like to ask for your advice: I'm looking for the best sim racing rig that can be comfortable for both me and my son, who is about 1.3 meters tall. Currently, we use a simple "Wheel Stand Pro" and change the chair we sit on each time, but I need a rig that is separate from the TV and dedicated solely to simulation. It should be easy to adjust for different heights. In addition to the rig, I will obviously need to find a monitor stand, and I'm considering both rigs that already have the stand included or getting a separate stand to better set the distance from the monitor depending on whether it's me or my son using it. My budget is around €500-700, but if you have recommendations for rigs that are particularly advantageous for my situation and cost more, feel free to suggest them. I'm considering both fixed and foldable rigs, but space is not a major issue. Thank you again for your work and for any suggestions you can provide.
I have Trak Racer Tr80- lite but I think i have my pedal angle setup wrong, i adjust the brake so that it’s 90 degrees to the ground. How should the pedal angle be for a GT rig?
Hi ich hätte da mal eine frage ich bräuchte ein simracing rig für um die 600 bis 700 Euro mit Sitz und Monitor Halterung was wäre deiner meinung nach immoment das beste was man kriegen könnte die Maße die bei mir gehen würden wären 160x60 cm zur info ich benutze eine Fanatec wheel base
I have a Fanatec CSW 2.5 (8 N/m) and am looking to get an entry level wheel stand or full rig which one would you recommend as id like one with no flex at all. the next level racing wheel stand dd is my current choice but would like to hear any recommendations
If you could help me I would appreciate it. I have a different use case. I have the budget and the space. I want a rig that an adult can use, and then adjust for a young child. So the seat and the steering wheel need to be able to adjust quickly depending on the use case. Suggestions? I will be using PC only.
Open wheeler gen 3 Get the seat riser kit I got all the add ons Go watch there video on here , see em at end , racing , flight ect . Best sim rig for money .
Don't sleep on advanced sim racing. They have good customer service and free shipping in North America. I prefer independent monitor stand and the advanced vesa mounts are totally worth it.
Many online sim shops sell their own brand of aluminum profile rig at a fraction of the price of trakracer and next level, it's a crime to have a video like this and not even mention that. Since it's aluminum extrusion, there is little to no difference between them and more 'name' brands like trakracer and gt omega. Hell you can look up the parts list from a simshop like advanced sim racing and just order all the pieces yourself from a metal shop. I did exactly thst for some add on pieces for my rig. You can order custom lengths and custom end taps and the hardware so you can basically add on whatever you can imagine and have it identical to a name brand at a fraction of the cost.
@@Motoscotty Advanced Sim Racing makes pretty good and cheap rigs, so does 6 sigma racing. I bought an ASR3 from advanced sim racing, but both companies make more affordable lighter duty versions - advanced sim racing makes the ASR1, 6 sigma makes the 6s-slim. they both should be able to handle wheels up to around 10nm (honestly though you could probably get away with over 12), and like a 75kg load cell (i have a 100kg load cell that i use at 45% - and i doubt anyone actually ever uses the full 100kg, looking online most people use between 40-60kg even on heavier pedals). sites like open sim rigs will sell you plans for sim racing rigs that you can DIY with wood or profile or whatever. advanced sim racing also actually has a full parts list for each rig on their site, and the build plans are on their youtube channel, so if you want to DIY you can order what you need from wherever near you that sells profile and build it using that (you will need to come up with your own solutions for the pedal plate and wheel deck though if you go this route) If you have a junkyard accessible, you can get a seat from a real car for probably like 50 bucks, but you can also find cheapish ones on amazon and aliexpress. also since they are aluminum profile, you can modify them as needed with easily available profile stock. I modified mine with profile from an online store called fazstore here in canada. the profile itself is pretty cheap, its all the t-nuts and fittings etc, that end up making it more expensive. Also these places usually have black Friday deals. So if your planning on buying it may be worth waiting a little till a sale comes up
I bought a trac racer 160 with a bunch of addons.. Spent a fortune… they never shipped the item. Contacted support many times. Heard nothing.. being forced to dispute purchased with bank. Not a great time as I bought it weeks ago for an event… had to miss the event.

Great thanks for clarification, that wheel stand was purchased quite a few years ago so good to hear its evolved.
Hey, GTOmega... Didn't you guys use to sell a cockpit just like the NLR GTRacer? IIRC you called it the Pro cockpit. How did NLR end up with it?
You are correct, we had a similar design a long time ago which was our Pro Cockpit.
We felt it wasn't suited to the modern racer and it was effectively replaced by the TITAN Cockpit while our ART cockpit grew from strength to strength in the same time.
Can we also mount Fanatec gt dd pro on it?
@@GTOmegaTV this is why I’m in the comments 👍🏻 I have the classic wheel stand with the rear add on, but it’s time to upgrade to the prime lite 😉
I would choose an 80/20 rather than a tubular as it gives you much more versatility with regards to upgrades and adjustability as well as rigidity.

Which Rig is best choice that supports a 65" IN TV and also has inverted pedal options. I can't confirm if the TR 160 has TV Mounts that support 65"
I am looking into these for ergonomic reasons; mostly mouse/ keyboard. Will be sat in for long hours.

If PLAYSEAT® SENSATION PRO have more easier possibilities of adjustment, then for me it could be perfect SIM cockpit .

Don't sleep on advanced sim racing. They have good customer service and free shipping in North America. I prefer independent monitor stand and the advanced vesa mounts are totally worth it.
Many online sim shops sell their own brand of aluminum profile rig at a fraction of the price of trakracer and next level, it's a crime to have a video like this and not even mention that. Since it's aluminum extrusion, there is little to no difference between them and more 'name' brands like trakracer and gt omega. Hell you can look up the parts list from a simshop like advanced sim racing and just order all the pieces yourself from a metal shop. I did exactly thst for some add on pieces for my rig. You can order custom lengths and custom end taps and the hardware so you can basically add on whatever you can imagine and have it identical to a name brand at a fraction of the cost.
@@davyc412 any links to these rigs?
@@Motoscotty Advanced Sim Racing makes pretty good and cheap rigs, so does 6 sigma racing. I bought an ASR3 from advanced sim racing, but both companies make more affordable lighter duty versions - advanced sim racing makes the ASR1, 6 sigma makes the 6s-slim. they both should be able to handle wheels up to around 10nm (honestly though you could probably get away with over 12), and like a 75kg load cell (i have a 100kg load cell that i use at 45% - and i doubt anyone actually ever uses the full 100kg, looking online most people use between 40-60kg even on heavier pedals).
sites like open sim rigs will sell you plans for sim racing rigs that you can DIY with wood or profile or whatever. advanced sim racing also actually has a full parts list for each rig on their site, and the build plans are on their youtube channel, so if you want to DIY you can order what you need from wherever near you that sells profile and build it using that (you will need to come up with your own solutions for the pedal plate and wheel deck though if you go this route)
If you have a junkyard accessible, you can get a seat from a real car for probably like 50 bucks, but you can also find cheapish ones on amazon and aliexpress. also since they are aluminum profile, you can modify them as needed with easily available profile stock. I modified mine with profile from an online store called fazstore here in canada. the profile itself is pretty cheap, its all the t-nuts and fittings etc, that end up making it more expensive.
Also these places usually have black Friday deals. So if your planning on buying it may be worth waiting a little till a sale comes up
I bought a trac racer 160 with a bunch of addons..
Spent a fortune… they never shipped the item.
Contacted support many times. Heard nothing.. being forced to dispute purchased with bank.
Not a great time as I bought it weeks ago for an event… had to miss the event.
Can you give me some games i should play with a racing rig like this on xbox
Best Rig: my Mazda 3 5-speed hatchback. Otherwise, I'd have to say I love the look of the Logitech Playseat. Thanks for the video.
