At least you're getting your gear together properly, when you get the dedicated PC, you going to want it to have it's own router, of course at that point, you'll be discussing Triples vs VR. It looks as though you have a supportive family. Good Luck!!
Got me in 48 hours with overnight shipping this past week. Loving it. The new texas warehouse is awesome. Wont have to worry to much in the future when ordering in the US.
lol obviously you know nothing about fanatec 😂 and you paid for overnight shipping that’s why! And overnight shipping shouldn’t take 48 hours when you pay for overnight shipping
Yeah, I've ordered a few thing's from them since they switched to the texas warehouse. Previously i wad waiting minimum 2 weeks for parts and accessories. Last 2 times i ordered, used same old regular shipping, and they both got here in less than 2 days after the order. Ps. I also live in texas.
@DarkKentX yeah but alot of people are reading into it wrong. They also just released yesterday a new cockpit. Also jack isn't leaving he had to step down for image reasons due to customers freaking about about the delays. It's called saving face. Yet they also announced his position will be sales/product development. He's to good at marketing to get off the team. So the whole team is still together lol.
No problem! Glad I could help! Lol Thanks. It’s the Alpine TRX from Trak Racer. Here’s the link: trakracer.com/products/alpine-racing-trx-2023-livery?_pos=1&_sid=64669cecf&_ss=r&variant=42362174013631
That F1 wheel and paddle shifters are the best. The gold QR2 is so smooth going on and coming off. I’ve tried all three QR2 and the gold one is definitely the best. I have a CS DD and v3 pedals and the entire setup is a dream to use. Since your gear is four months old now you already know that.
Glad I came across your channel, entertaining and funny, that got you a sub, I’m running Logitech pro wheel and pedals and Trak racer tr8 pro so the previous version of the rig you have there
Thank you! I appreciate the sub as well. I was considering the TR8 when the TRX was announced. Waited almost a year for it! Worth it. How do you like the Pro?
Hell Yeah, Bro!!! I bet you are ecstatic that you waited for your Fanatec Delivery. I am actually happy that you chose to have faith and wait. Cause a lot of people chose not to wait. A lot of people do not understand that the world does not revolve around them and that there are other people. Fanatec Employees roughly 350 vs the WORLD of Motorsports/Sim Racers. Anyway, I love the Trak Racer Alpine TRX. I have the TR8 PRO with the 20Nm Fanatec Podium F1 PC/PlayStation and Fanatec V3 pedals. I raced on iRacing, ACC for PC/PS5, GT7, F1 22/23. I haven't been on in a few months due to health issues with lower leg swelling. Enjoy bro!
I’m so glad that I waited! I wouldn’t classify myself as a “Fan boy,” but I have thoroughly enjoyed my Fanatec experience. & I agree, many of us view ourselves as the main character in a world full of NPCs 😅 I do believe I knocked it out the park with the TRX. I love it. Sorry to hear about your health issues. Hope you get well soon & back in the driver’s seat! Thanks for watching!
Thank you! I’m loving it. I wasn’t sure how much of a difference I’d actually feel moving up from 8nm, but I can tell you now (as a casual driver myself), it’s substantial. & the QR2 is incredible.
Not many of us out'chere, brutha...✊ You're 2 years in; I'm about 3 years in. Nice setup you got there, it's very sleek.👍I guarantee you, you ain't done upgrading. lol. It *never* ends😂 Next thing you know, you're gonna get ActivePedals, and triples...😬😬😬
🤦🏿♂️ Facts. & thanks! I’m already knowing Bruh. This is my 3rd or 4th variation in those 2 years, & I’m already planning “What’s Next.” You must’ve found my Playbook bc I’m definitely considering ActivePedals at some point. Lol
@@DarkKentX 👍Yeah it's crazy how addictive our little hobby is. I started out in a foldable Playseat Challenge and Logitech G923 in 2021. Now my rig has morphed into half of a bedroom😂The ActivePedals are totally *not* a necessity. But they say the pedals are arguably the most important part of your setup, in terms of your driving consistency. So I took the plunge! (And I have no regrets.) And, I've re-sold enough equipment on eBay in the last 3 years, that now I'm in the process of building my "end game" setup. Buy once, cry once!😭
@@eagletrippin Man ain’t that the truth! ActivePedals AND half the bedroom?! You’re my hero inspiration! 😂 I know Me, & I’m most certainly going ActivePedals once I go PC. In the meantime, maybe I’ll work on my driving lol
Yeah, the triple-screen setup takes up alot of space😬 I'm by no means a great sim racer (I'm decent), but I'm more into the "immersion"... You have a great setup, keep working on your craft✊ Holla at cha boi if you need a bad influence in terms of buying advice😂
I ordered the same setup and it should be arriving today. I moved up 3 times in a year and a half from the T300 ( over heated ) then the Tgt 2 which was way better. Both with the tlcm pedal set. That made me not want to short myself when I went to DD. Hope you do a follow up. Also nice rig.
While I still play GT7 (I also have PSVR2) IRacing has taken over most my race time since I built my PC this February. Your next upgrade should definitely be a pc, the FFB quality over anything on either console is huge. I got back into simracing during COVID playing on both consoles as well and this year there was really nothing else to get without getting a pc and I didn’t expect the huge difference in detail over both series x and ps5. GT7 is a great Segway into iracing so you won’t take long to get acclimated once you finally do.
@@mutha_fnmikey2325 Since the recording of this video, I’ve discovered that my PC is more than capable. I’ve run ACC & even Half Lyfe in VR (Meta Question 3) w/o any issues. At the moment, I’m In Love w/ GT7 lol & prefer the simplicity of console. Eventually, I’ll give it a go, but I still have so much to accomplish in GT7… I’m really just getting started.
Yup I did set them up through the pc Fanatec app. There’s still no way I can run any higher than 20 to 25 percent. I can handle a harder lc pedal after using thrustmaster tlcm with stiffer upgraded springs.
How are you enjoying the CSL elite v2? When I use mine, I only get to use about 15 to 25% of the brake force. On your brake pedal what percentage are you comfortable with because I believe that I should be getting a lot more out of it.
I like em. They’re much better than my previous pedals. Did you make the adjustment thru the Fanatec app (on PC)? I don’t like a super stiff pedal, so I believe I set mine to 40%. I can achieve 100% brake force easily in-game at that setting. I hope this helps.
I got the pedals fairly quickly as well. I ordered them separately. It was the preordered DD+ & Formula v2.5X that were the reason for my wait. I didn’t realize how I’d worded it at the time. I waited to install them at the same time as everything else. Thanks for watching!
So I’ve heard. My only problem is that I’m primarily XBOX (at the moment). I like the PSVR2, but the Oculus would work with PC (which I plan to transition to eventually). Still weighing the options…
Thank you! Having started with the Logitech G923, I would not recommend starting with any non-direct drive wheel base. The McLaren GT3 wheel I spoke of in this video is arguably one of the best budget-friendly wheels available (in the Fanatec ecosystem). Pedals are extremely important, & I’d suggest something with a load cell brake, bare minimum. A rig, while not mandatory, does increase the fun, stability, & immersion IMO. & there are far cheaper, but just as sturdy ones than the one I started with & have here. Lastly, playing on PC seems to be “the wave,” I’m even aspiring to it, but haven’t yet bc playing on console was cheaper (unless you already have a strong PC). These are just my opinions, I’m no Guru, but I hope it helped.
Nice, i've been running the CSLDD since last November. I still love the crap out of it, thinking of just upgrading to Qr2 for the easier releases. I mainly run iracing and AMS2 on PC, and i seap between two wheels depending on the car, lol. Gets super annoying. i have to tug hard to release it, and i just upgraded the collar because it was giving out 😅 Let us know how that wheel base is after setting up the FFB, noticed more detail ?
The QR2 release is so much better! No play in either of my wheels now, & it’s actually a “quick” release in comparison to the QR1 Lite I had. Even without completely dialed in settings, the 15nm of the DD+ is far superior to the CSL DD (8nm) in every way. The detail is great. I honestly didn’t know what to expect when I heard popular RUclipsrs talking about “greater detail,” but I know now. You feel every minor slip of the tires even quicker than before, & can respond faster. Long story less long, it’s amazing. Worth the upgrade.
Gotta race on pc bro trust me you won’t go back and you’ll upgrade those pedals again huiskevald are awsome or if you got the money go with somatic or simucube bro I got the same track racer rig with ultrawide on it I want triples now with some Motion
That’s The Plan (to go PC)! I’m in no rush now tho after getting the PSVR2 & Meta Quest 3 the other day. 🤯🤯 I’m Hooked! Once I do go PC tho, I’m going ALL OUT… Simucube ActivePedals! I’m content for now, but you know us SIM Racers lol Thanks for checking out the video Bro
Just subbed bruh. I was about to order the DD Extreme for PS5, but all the Fanatec news got me a little Shakey. I ended up going Simagic Alpha 15nm, P1000 pedals and GTS wheel with the Cortex converter box. I got a rig I built, but this Alpine rig looks tough.
I appreciate the sub! I understand the concern with Fanatec, but hopefully it all smooths out. I’ve heard nothing but great things about Simagic. It’s the way I may have gone if I’d began on PC 1st. I love this Alpine TRX! I didn’t wanna go meta like everyone else with the boxy looking rigs, & the adjustability sold me. I’m the 21st F1 driver on the grid in my mind lol, & this rig allowed me to drive seated like the real F1 drivers… Where do I sign? 😂
We got the same setup except I got the DD, Black Alpine TRX, but I did not get the podium shifters. Also had about the same wait time for my Black Friday order.😂😂
Was really excited for that v2.5x at $200 black friday price but unfortunately it feels just too narrow for me. A bit crazy you still on console with all that super expensive gear lol PC VR is the way to go for sim racing.
I’m really enjoying the v2.5X (for F1). I Frankensteined another wheel that I use for everything else. Everyone I game with is on console, but I’m starting to venture out onto PC slowly.
Ps5 gamer here. Great rig you have!! Enjoy your DD+. I have it also, coming from the DD Pro 8nm.. I use the DD+ on a reinforced Playseat Challenge and it works good 😊 in game I have it around 50% as that is enough power for me. You?
The "buy once, cry once" sentiment doesn't really work for a hobby that people don't even know if they'll be doing in a year or two, so it doesn't make sense to, for instance, spend $1.5k+ on a dd2 podium wheel base. Although resale value is damn near 100%, so no harm no foul if one did but didn't stick with it. I've even seen fanatec gear on eBay sell for more than new prices because they know they'll receive the order within a week.
Very true. Partly the reason I started with the Logitech G923. OAN… Just sold the old equipment I replaced in this video, & I’m regretting not trying eBay now! 😂
In my opinion stay away from fanatec there going down hill bro there’s other companies that offer same results for cheaper price .. I got the moza r21 for the same price you paid for that fanatec wheelbase cheers racing bro
Your opinion is fair… But aside from the preorder delay/logistics with this order this time, Fanatec has been awesome to me. & as a console-only player (currently), I had limited options initially. I appreciate you watching & your feedback. Happy Racing MyGuy
If you have a micro center near you go check them out they have all kinds of sim racing equipment there and you don’t gotta wait for it to be shipped to you bro I’m out in so cal so we only got one and it’s like a hour n half drive for me but worth the trip … make sure you take money cause you’ll always walk out with something for your rig or a pc build lol
Dont listen to that moza dog... Lmao moza is also shiit. I would rather drive fanatec that moza... Maybe we can talk with simucube beeing better. But thats it. So dont listen to moza dogs. Overheating bases
lol should teach you stay away from fanatec! Also makes no sense to buy a dd+ then use cheap pedals! And no point in the $200 qr2 lol you should of bought the $99 qr2 😂 fanatec is ripping people of with the bs of it can be used in a real car 😂😂😂 You people love to get ripped off by fanatec 😂😂 had clubsport dd 12nm it was weak and junk sent that shit back and bought a real wheelbase simagic alpha
Ummm… thanks for your opinions, but I spent My money how I wanted to as a console player. Fanatec has been great to Me (this shipping time being the only exception). The QR2 admittedly was unnecessary, but what I wanted. I mentioned that I liked the aesthetic with the upgraded paddle shifters. With that said, shouldn’t I have done what I wanted to do? Congrats on your “real” wheelbase btw.
@@TheFelker I’d like to believe so. I did my research, & preferred the adjustability of the V2s as well. Dude hates Fanatec now. I’d seen a few of his videos in the past.

Lmao moza is also shiit. I would rather drive fanatec that moza...
Maybe we can talk with simucube beeing better. But thats it. So dont listen to moza dogs. Overheating bases
@@EAsportsItsintheGame187🤣🤣🤣
lol should teach you stay away from fanatec! Also makes no sense to buy a dd+ then use cheap pedals! And no point in the $200 qr2 lol you should of bought the $99 qr2 😂 fanatec is ripping people of with the bs of it can be used in a real car 😂😂😂
You people love to get ripped off by fanatec 😂😂 had clubsport dd 12nm it was weak and junk sent that shit back and bought a real wheelbase simagic alpha
Ummm… thanks for your opinions, but I spent My money how I wanted to as a console player. Fanatec has been great to Me (this shipping time being the only exception). The QR2 admittedly was unnecessary, but what I wanted. I mentioned that I liked the aesthetic with the upgraded paddle shifters. With that said, shouldn’t I have done what I wanted to do?
Congrats on your “real” wheelbase btw.
@@DarkKentX You made the right call on the pedals, the V3s are really dated now and the V2s are better cost/performance ratio.
@@TheFelker I’d like to believe so. I did my research, & preferred the adjustability of the V2s as well. Dude hates Fanatec now. I’d seen a few of his videos in the past.
Damn this dude is pissed off you spent your own money on something you enjoy? Imagine hating your life so much you want company lol.
