While racing is theoretically possible on a console gaming controller, it’s quite a bad way to apply throttle, braking and steering, which are all finicky in simulators. See also ‘ the PC & screens‘, and the summary. To make the chunks of information a little smaller and easier to digest, this is split into the multiple posts.

But yeah, having a proper wheel and having it setup correctly (not according to feel, but correctly) is super important.In the following series of blog posts we’re trying to shed some light on the various hardware parts you need to have or – for some parts – should have. Having a smaller FOV offers quite a few benefits, which are explained in the videos. The biggest change I made is the FOV one. There are a few other videos made by other people, but EmptyBox is pretty to the point on a lot of things. Have fun understanding how adding blinders makes you faster, but it does. One of the most controversial ones would be proper FOV.

I think I already directed you to this playlist, but emptybox has a pretty decent video set showing how to properly setup yourself for success in sim racing. And that can help with feeling the car, and creating a better sense of how the car is handling. Plus, the wheel is just an awesome wheel!īut ultimately, it comes down to just wanting the virtual in-game wheel to match the wheel in real life. At most, it just gives you a lot of breathing room and makes the car feel more alive, although iRacing will automatically adjust how far you can turn the wheel based on its real world turning ratio, so a car that only has 540 degrees of steering will make the wheel create a force feedback buffer at those ends.

In race time, I've rarely ever had to go a full 450 degrees right or left, but sometimes it does popup. Cars are pretty sensitive at high speeds, and having that refined 1:1 ratio just makes it, in my opinion, easier to drive.
Having that rotation doesn't mean you'll be turning the wheel that much, and it's not like an FPS where having a faster turning ratio makes you better. This is often done with speed sensitivity, but still creates a system where turning will be non-linear, creating an inconsistent environment. The issue with wheels under 900 degrees is that they suffer from an issue where the areas on the sides will be more sensitive to allow the user to make fine adjustments but still turn the wheel the full direction. What it does is for most vehicles is grant you the ability to run a 1:1 ratio of cars that run up to 900 degrees.
