RACEROOM for starters

I was originally in for the Fanatec setup, and was prepared to spend the money. But what I wanted wasn't in stock so I bought the Thrustmaster T-248.

The T-248 is a hybrid FFB system, that uses a combination of gears and belts. The wheel's good enough I reckon, but what I really like about this bundle is the pedals. They are fantastic and are Hall sensors. Magnetic so no old-school potentiometer trouble like we used to have with this type of gear (and in this price range)

I've been more than happy with it. In the $300 range it's a solid choice.

If I did it over again I might opt for the T-300 just because it has detachable rims (the wheel part). But the T-300 is still bundled with inferior pedals. The T-300 with my current pedals (T3PM) would be really a good spot for me so I can swap rims to whichever discipline I'm running at the mo, from open wheel, to GT to vintage, but still have the pedals I prefer.

Good luck in your choice and if I can help let me know.
