This is the brand new Ascher-Racing McLaren Artura Ultimate, and it’s probably the most insane (and expensive) sim racing wheel I’ve ever reviewed. Priced at $1500, this is far from a toy and has to be absolutely perfect. It is notably compatible with wheelbases from Fanatec, Simagic, Asetek, and many others, thus potentially making this wheel rim one of the most versatile ever. Ascher Racing has sent this unit over for review, and I’ve been putting it through its paces for the last several weeks. Now, I’ve gathered my thoughts on it, determined what I do and do not like, and am ready to shar ..read more

Also, keep in mind that if yo ..read more

This is the Next Level Racing F-GT Elite 160 — it’s one of the company's top-of-the-line sim racing cockpits, which unsurprisingly looks absolutely menacing. More than that, I’ve paired it with the brand-new Next Level Racing ERS3, a $250 reclining seat that they claim is one of the best value sim racing seats on the market today. All put together, I’ve been using this sim racing cockpit for several weeks now, and today I’m ready to give you all my review, going over all the good, the bad, and whether this really is the top of the line in sim racing cockpits. Keep in mind that if you are inte ..read more

Turtle Beach sent me this product for review, but it hasn’t yet arrived, so what you’re seeing in this video is the Turtle Beach VelocityOne race bundle that I myself spe ..read more
