When it comes to the world of sim racing, enthusiasts understand that the feedback you receive from the virtual car you're maneuvering is crucial. Nearly all vehicle feedback is felt through the steering wheel. Many dedicated sim racers swear by direct-drive wheels for their impeccable precision in conveying vehicle dynamics.

Hey all, so I got the Buttkicker Gamer Plus over the weekend and was able to mess around with it.

What a neat experience. If you’re in an environment that allows you to use something like this I would highly recommend it.

I did a quick write-up with some more details if you want to check it out.

    Thanks for sharing! My Pro should be here in a couple days. Eager to try it out. I went with the pro because I’m not sure how well the mount on my rig (OpenWheeler Gen3) will transfer the vibrations. Also worried about noise, as I usually race in a shared space. We’ll see!

      Good luck with it! Definitely have to tweak it a bit for others around you, but I think it’s manageable enough. Once you find a good place to mount it you should be good. Cheers!
