Rebuilding My Entire Racing Simulator With The Newest Hardware. Will It Be Any Better?

- I got A Direct Drive wheelbase which is the top of the line for sim hardware to add to my motion simulator to see if it feels any different than it does with a mid-grade wheel setup. Will it make any difference? Is it worth the money?

Let me know what you thought of this video! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
"racing will make you a millionaire, if you start as a billionaire"
Bruh😂
LMAOOOOO00000O0O0O0
LMAOOOOO
LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
LMAO
This man tig welds for a sim setup that is true dedication.
Now just needs to brace the wheel mount to lower the flex.
Would you expect anything less from Taylor?
@ Not My Real Name no I would not
Not My Real Name well your not wrong, he does tend to overbuild anything and everything
Though is that a bad thing.... 😂
13:30 Cat at the slider: Let me INNN!
"I know this sect- THIS ISN"T THE SECTION! THIS ISN'T THE SECTION!"
BANG!
me playing Dirt Rally 2.0
Wait a minute, you're allowed to have a direct drive wheel even if you aren't living in a shed and have a R32!? I thought those were required. Hmm.
You are not allowed - it has been ruled illegal in 43 countries, the law will only be void if you are seen to be thicc
🤭🤭🤭
Gotta have a bright minty paint job, otherwise no-go
Damn the broadbent jokes lmao didn't expect those here
@@skidsftw8074 ya can't just dive into the jimmer pool and not get some on ya.
Well thanks... Until now I was fine with not being able to afford one of these
Bruh fr, saw this and i was like fml
I was being a good boy saving my unemployment benefits, but fuck it you only live once.
@@Pigey My dream setup: P3 rig w/ frame parts replaced w/ 80/20, HP Reverb G2, DD1 base & assoc gear, & G5 motion seat. Est $ minus PC: $6k.
Now I have my T-300 clamped to a table, PS4, & 39” TV 🙃
@@lewisgordon1490 look up Rigmetal. I got a 8020 setup with wheel plate and shifter mount and seat for $680 shipped in the US. Way more affordable than the SimLab stuff and it’s the same material. Don’t overpay for brand name.
@@lewisgordon1490what do you mean replace frame with 8020?
My favorite part of the whole video is the cat following him around everywhere and jus vibin
Thanks for the information, looking to get into this setup!
Your joking right
@@topside249 😂
@@topside249 why would she be joking?
Absolutely brilliant to hear your comments on this. Tried a DD2 yesterday and couldn't believe how real it felt.
Taylor, I love your content man. I don’t know what it is but I watch A lot of TH-cam and a lot of the “bigger” TH-camrs as well but after a long day at work for some reason I crave watching one of your videos. You’re a huge idol of mine. I hope one day to take some time off work processing green chile to come to Florida in hopes of meeting you and hopefully sliding with you as well. Keep up the sick content and fab work man!
0:39 Sim racers are much the same as race drivers. The difference is in budget for the most part (at least for me). That said, I'll gladly put $5K into a ridiculously immersive sim rig (from PC to motion rig) and drive incredible cars at legendary tracks in a virtual setting, without batting an eye when someone criticizes it. If I had a real car, I could spend that in a month depending on how my sessions go. I'd love to have the means to do it, but sim racing makes more sense financially. And usually people are interested when I tell them I sim race.
2:19 That's my biggest reason for the passion I have for sim racing. It translates. It's not the SAME as the real thing, but what you learn on a sim about car control will ABSOLUTELY help you on a track, or driving in general.
9:29 You're just awesome, that's all lol
14:47 Thank you for linking that shifter
since you mentioned it, can you do a video on what it costs to run an event like clutchkickers at your level?
He said in last video that the price money pays for the gas to the tow rig and the entrance fee , so maybe around $1500 for a weekend 😁
24:05 the true value of a sim
Dude, you’re cracking me up 😆 speaking so calmly while nailing those turns!
love the sim content w all the upgradges, dont be afraid to be nerdy lot of people love watching this kind of stuff and all the minute differences and features. super cool stuff taylor!
Top video mate! Really good and informative content!! Keep em going I learn a lot from you bro 🔥❤️
After the initial lengthy rant was over this video gat very interesting, and I say this because in my meager budget of Pennie’s a day, I too am constantly upgrading my system. I don’t do racing (get dizzy) but I do the “truck simulator” thing. Initially I started out with a basic old run down table. Now I have a a comfortable set up and a trucker’s seat that’s out of this world. Yeah, so I can see this gentleman’s effort paying off. Great video, once it got going.
This helped swing me towards going direct drive. That looks so much smoother & quieter!! Awesome content man!
How much do you think he’s got in his sim as it sits right there, computer and all?
@@srcastic8764 Probably about $5000-6000
Awesome, would love to see mor sim stuff.
@4:43 "a lot of wizardry" .. That's a nice way of putting it ;-)
The fact you can drive like that and talk so calmly without missing a beat, to me is incredible.
Thanks man you got me into Sim Racing currently running a VRS Direct Drive!
I like your little racing buddy roaming around :D
Good looking rig there my friend!
this whole setup is endgame, this is bad ass, if youre still sim racing id love to play ac with you!
Dude I subbed immediately your content is sooo good
Omg you are sooooo close to 500k!!! Congrats!
Man I love the detail of your videos 10/10
personally i would have given the plate a quick black coat but love how you're doing all your own mods
Quickly becoming one of my favorite channels!
Damn i just got my V2.5 base, love it, V3 pedals are sick, love them!
Clear advantage of sim racing in Nordschleife. Good content. You do both real and sim plus diy. I can listen to people who know what they’re talking about. I ordered DD1 just before watched it, my birthday present today!
I would highly advise mounting the DD to something abit thicker, you'll probably be losing a lot of detail through the mounting plate, atleast something as thick as the CSWv2.5 angle bracket.
My DD2 twisted a 3mm plate during a pretty nasty crash in iracing o o;;
So yea, if you want to safely use a DD, please make a thicker mounting bracket! > < also tip for mounting wheels, make sure to tighten the big ass fastener abit first so its pressing against the rubber prior to slipping the wheels QR onto the DD shaft, then tighten. That way the rubber wont get pushed back when putting a wheel on and its also nice and snug, my DD2 has zero slack, so no wiggling of the wheel.
UGUU!~ >
Flawless transition between changing the shift knobs, had to do a double take
Really enjoy your simrig stuff 👍
Nice spheil Taylor. I started watching you on Cleetuss channel. I used to do sim racing in 2008. I recently bought a new wheel to get back into sim racing. Nice rig sir!
Awesome video. I’m curious: how much seat time do you average on your sim rig each week, and how do you see it helping to translate over to irl drifting?
This is ridiculous bro. Sick!
Poor Tuckinator just wanted to sleep in his sim chair
I just came across your channel. I also like cars and racing which is why you just got a new subscriber. keep up the good vids
Very nice stuff! Dutch regards, Nico
Your video editing was on point for which picture to have bigger during your racing
Congrats. Welcome to the Podium club.
Beautiful setup, lovely drive
My poor boi self is now convinced I need to save for a DD1!
I'd recommend getting some sort of an outro for your edits, to give people viewing on consoles a chance to use their brains and throw you a like before the video ends.
Thanks for all you do, Taylor! You're easily the best, most helpful, and informative auto vlogger out there.
Ive got no choice but still im loving my Playseat Challenge with a G920 bundle,having said that,i just cant imagine what a great time you have with this.
Awesome vid dude. Best car you tuber
Super jealous considering I'm still rocking my original Fanatec CSR setup, love the sim content! Btw make sure your PC is free of dust :D
Supervisor Sandy on the scene
And Tuck waiting for Taylor to finish up so he can sit in the warm sim seat.
Amazing sim racing gear :)
Super helpful thanks!
6:23 SANS! thanks for the video, i think i need to have this in my life. I better start putting away my nickels.
love the set up, got one myself. but my vr is funky it jumps around. did you experience the same issue. love the vids keep up the good work.
You will get much more fidelity when you figure out how to minimize the flex your wheel is getting from the rig stiffness. It is dampening the "feel" you get from the direct drive. You can see the base move so much. I think once you get that sorted it will be a huge benefit. My DD1 felt much better when I got rid off all the flex from my wheelbase mount.
Awesome stuff bro!
Not to mention you can do 100 odd laps around Klutchkickers in assetto and not have to spend a cent on tires, fuel, food etc etc
Or wait in line
Sweet as setup!!!
enjoy driving with the new setup
11:28 that miata looks clean ngl
That wheels so nice it even comes with power steering fluid
That’s badass😂 looking to get into a similar setup to practice racing dirt modifieds
Love the sim content, dude you should join up with Kame trick if your getting more into assetto corsa
if theres anyone to trust on how a car simulator should feel, I would definitely trust someone like Taylor, since he races in RL as well as being knowledgeable on simulator equipment
I love that your coming around to assetto, you should hold a assetto meet!
Dude. This setup is dope.
That “Europe Rocks” poster though 😂
Pretty much just made these upgrades to my rig(jsut not fanatec) so worth it.
Those welds though!😳
Nice set up.
Nice setup
Awesome video, thanks for sharing the details. Do you find that you have to adjust the settings of the steering wheel a lot? Or does it more or less work out of the box?
Although I cant afford to do these elaborate Sim setups and rigs, I do admire what you guys can do to make Simulator driving and racing more realistic and fun to do. I was curious what you used for displays for driving, and I see you do VR like myself. I dont do your style of racing, but I do different styles of racing (Karting, F1, and Indycar). I raced real gokarts when I was younger. thanks for the video.
That setup is cherry my guy. Loved the video.
You are one smart guy!
Thanks, it was useful!
Imagine your mom walking into your room while you're sitting with a helmet in a moving chair with a steering wheel while he is talking to himself
I remember playing gt2, leguna seca in and ruf, favorite track and car. If you wanted to drift then the Shelby cobra. Tire smoke through out the whole track!
Dont know anything about Sims I am just getting into this thing and already like your videos!
My RSeat S1 alacantara, and new PC ate up a lot of my budget, but still ended up with V3, and CSL Elite wheel. The Fanatec low budget wheel is way better than the old T300. I will get a bigger rim for the wheel base, because all I do is dirt oval. Did I mention my Vive Cosmos? Almost forgot. It’s a game changer. Nothing like being able to look off into corners.
Hey nice one mate! What is the brand of motion platform?
Setup is very personal. I mounted my handbrake to the shifter (same gear you have). The handbrake mounts with a forward rake and is to the left of the shifter so it's between the wheel and the shifter. This allows for minimal movement. It mounts with the stock hardware
Love the sim content
That's over 2k in this setup alone, not counting previous cost on wheels, pedals, shifter and ebrake. True dedication right there, and no kick back from Fanatec either, I'm surprised he didn't reach out and see if they might sponser the video.
I wish i could do the welding you do man, my gt omgea rig needs some strengthening for the dd2. Great job 👍🏽 and yes the green hell is tricky but stick with it it’s awesome.
I have the regular pedals and I absolutely love them. Never used to the inverted so I have no clue how different they are.
right on!!
HELL YEAH!!! I just got Triple 2k MSI 27 inch monitors for my rig.
it seems amazing omg! trying to save so i can buy a g290 and start playing
G920 or the newer 923. But I’d get a T-300 or TMX. A bit more than a G920, less than half of Fanatec V2.5, twice the power of 920 but more importantly little lash and MUCH MUCH quieter (more so w/ some sims). When I had my Logitech wheel I was often worried I’d bother my roommates if played late at night. My T-300 is nearly silent by comparison. Don’t think made me better but the smoothness & quite had the biggest shift in enjoyment that I’ve had of any mods.
I've had your old setup in my basket on the Fanatec site for months (pre rona) but never pulled the trigger because i couldn't decide whether i'd regret it and wish i'd have gone with the DD1. I think i'll be saving the extra peas to get the DD1. Until then ill be rocking the faithful G920 haha
The fact that something like this is **relatively** affordable is amazing
Great setup ! just a question, what kind of motion platform did you use?
only thing i can think of is i would probably put the button pad on the other side of the wheel if it fits in front of the handbrake. kinda like if it was a center console of a car.
If you have 3rd to 1st gear miss shifts with the Fanatec shifter, it’s the sensor spacing. Basically the side to side sensor inside the shifter needs to be shimmed out a couple mm. That fixed mine for good.

Hey love the set up. I am looking to add motion to my set up so I am contemplating that set up in this video, or just adding a motion to my rig. I have the GT Omega RS 9. My main question is, would the motion setup make a lot of noise for my neighbors down below me? I did add a 1 inch Gym square padding underneath. Thanks in advance!!! Love the vids!! keepem going!!
Very comprehensive review and it feels great knowing I'm better at Nordschleife than you 🤙🏽🤙🏽8000+ hours spent on that track !
hi may i ask what isur well base setings for drifting. :) ?
Yeah I got a trackball mouse for my sim rig! Great minds think alike buddy!
new setup looks sick. i just wanna say though if you had to help your old wheel on transition something might not have been setup right. i have csl and once i finally got all the settings dialed it performs great the thing self steers fast and with lots of power. but when i first got it out of the box it didn't feel too good.
Yo first video I seen on this channel and my god that is so cool but what game is he playing?
'Liked' the moment you said 'aluminium' 😁
Haha he drops it every now and then. Its a treat for us English
