sure that's fanatec wheelbase , may be a lite version or shorter version of DD for BMW "Fusion SL" rigYou can see in this picture the new Podium QR2 and unknown wheel base:
We now know what this unknown wheelbase is, don't we?You can see in this picture the new Podium QR2 and unknown wheel base:
I can remember reading somewhere that the cost for this new wheel was going to be somewhere in the $1400-$1600 range just for the wheel, no wheelbase in that pricing tier.Those wheels look so good but it is it worth it just to play racing games? For some it is but not for me though
i bought one F1 Podium unit in march for 1.799 Euro and i am still fully satiesfied!I can remember reading somewhere that the cost for this new wheel was going to be somewhere in the $1400-$1600 range just for the wheel, no wheelbase in that pricing tier.
Way above what I would even remotely consider for my personal game controller expenditures.
I can remember when the DD1/Formula Playstation bundle was released with its $1799 price tag, considered it for about 30 seconds then decided maybe at $1399-$1499 but no way at $1800.
I like decent things but I play games to have fun and I can do that very well with CSL and Clubsport level gear and at my ability level really do not think I am leaving a lot and actually anything on the table because of my gear quality choices.

substract the F1 wheel with APM from the base and you are not far off the regular DD1 PC base price! ..if there is any difference at all!
I do understand you, mate!I think when I was comparing the Sony specific DD1/ Formula bundle compared to the regular non Sony specific DD1/standard F1 wheel bundle came out to be a $150 higher for the Sony specified unit over the basic same option in a non Sony configuration. $1649 as compared to $1799.
I just do not think the formula wheel at over its $500 price point is a very good value but of course that is subjective to personal likes and opinion.
At least with the non Sony wheelbase dd1 the customer does have the option for other wheels which is not the case for the Sony PS version.
Glad you are enjoying yours though! They do seem like nice units just a little higher priced than I care to invest.
I am taking the slumming route and pre ordered the CSL DD 8nm unit.
I already have the v.3 pedals and will use the McLaren gt3 wheel I already own as well.If I was on PC and wanted a wheel I’d go for the new CSL DD 8nm as well! What pedals you wanna get? What wheel is looking good to you?
Alright. Got the V3‘s myself.I already have the v.3 pedals and will use the McLaren gt3 wheel I already own as well.
Yes I have both the v1 version of the wheel and bought the v.2 version when it came out as I like the wheel to the point of wanting a backup.Alright. Got the V3‘s myself.
Reg. the wheel: Are you ok with the shifter pedals being one unit?! I think i like them better when separated but I did not have my hands on the McLaren wheel yet.
Oh yes, I fell in love with those magnetic shifter on my APM! That click, that satisfying feeling EVERY time I click them!Yes I have both the v1 version of the wheel and bought the v.2 version when it came out as I like the wheel to the point of wanting a backup.
I do use the v.2 version since it has the magnetic shifters but my v.1 version which is now a backup still works like new.
A new one?! I only know about the black one, also available for Xbox.Fanatec is now offering a new Clubsport universal hub with the new CSPt mag shifters. You could add a d-shape or round rim to that.

Almost think I should work for Fanatec
good job! @DomB_Fanatec
I know that one. But combining it with a rim is more expensive as getting a combo for 400 euro. I like the podium button plate endurance a lot. That one with a D shaped rim and magnetic shifter plus clubsport QR for 400 euro would be a dream come true. I guess.
Is the Clubsport QR attached to the hub you linked taking full advantage of all the DD1 F1 base horsepower?!
That’s right. Cheaper than the Podium version.You could just get the Clubsport 911r GT3 package. It uses the new V2 hub.
The podium endurance button box when paired with the clubsport universal mount they show a couple of pictures of that combo together on the web site and the way it looks to me the function buttons on top of the universal hub are partly blocked by the overhang of the podium endurance box when attached together which seems would disable or prevent access to some of the function adjustments on the hub.I like the podium button plate endurance a lot.

good spot mate! thank you.The podium endurance button box when paired with the clubsport universal mount they show a couple of pictures of that combo together on the web site and the way it looks to me the function buttons on top of the universal hub are partly blocked by the overhang of the podium endurance box when attached together which seems would disable or prevent access to some of the function adjustments on the hub.
This would be one area I need need clarified if that was indeed an issue before I bought those two units to pair together.
I actually do not have a problem with the buttons and led readout on the top of the universal hub to access and go through an adjustment or set up menu as for me the ease of accessing those menus even while in game overrides anything to do with looks.good spot mate! thank you.
i dont like the buttons on the top of the hub too much. its looks "old days", like a gaming controller... and compared to the integrated one button option in the F1 Podium wheel (using the MFS)... na, i dont think i can go back to that level of "quality". i hope you get me.
well, guess i have to go the podium route as long as i am on PS.
well written mate, thank you!I actually do not have a problem with the buttons and led readout on the top of the universal hub to access and go through an adjustment or set up menu as for me the ease of accessing those menus even while in game overrides anything to do with looks.
Like the next guy I appreciate a nice professional looking attractive product but I have learned that basically what is more important is the functionality and what one option may do better on that front than a different choice even if the one that works better does not look quite as fancy.
Overall though I do like the looks of the Podium endurance box with some wheel options but realistically the changeable position and even location of the modules on the universal hub really do make it a more versatile and configurable option and even at a lower price point and using that reasoning I have started looking at the clubsport hub from a different perspective than my original assessment of the product.
