The Clubsport Formula V3 has leaked. It looks like a wider diameter wheel this time around, alongside a bigger screen and new encoders.

I upgraded my TX wheel of 10 years, yes 10 years, to Fanatec CSL 8nn, and oh boy is it a fantastic piece of kit..... i'm in love and it came just at the time i was getting jaded with sim racing.
Only game i prefer my TX on weirdly is AC, I was drifting like a champ on the TX and the CSL i'm having to learn to drift all over again....
 
Worked it out, I have had to do a set up for AC drifting where i reduce the natural damper thing to about 6 from 50. Also my CSL doesn't seem to have a 'drift' setting like i see on YT. Is it because they removed it?

Yeah damper 50 is too high for any thing.

drift DRI setting did not make it to the DD’s - only the old belt drives had it
 
Disappointed they aren't hydraulic pedals. Maybe next time. I can't see my laptimes improving with that set over what I have now.

My guess for the price is something like 559.99€ or 599.95€ (to justify the podium brand), the two pedals/formula set will be probably 20-40€ cheaper.
From a first loot at the video they kinda look like what other manufacturers offer in their mid to upper range (eg heusinkveld sprint) pedals (and prices between 600-900€)

Dunno. Without full force support im not sure that paying more than $400~ makes sense for these;

Particularly when https://www.apexsimracing.com/products/sp-pro-pedal-3-pedal-set-with-3-ydraulic-dampers

Exist.

Been waiting years for fanatec to release a podium pedal..and now, im not sure why.
 
I’ll be a day 1 preorder guy for sure. Biggest thing for me is being able to quickly change how the brake feels for road cars and race cars
 
Hey Everyone,

Wanted to ask if anyone has a long term review of the Fanatec Clubsport GT Cockpit?

I currently have a playseat trophy with Logitech RS50 that I attach to a TV, but for a more immersive/comfortable setting I am looking to upgrade to clubsport GT or Simlab GT Evo with a curved monitor attached to the rig.

I love the look of the clubsport but am seeing a lot of reviews saying "just get an 80/20 rig" but not sure if that's just jumping on the bandwagon so wanted to see if anyone has experience of the rig long term?

I only play GT7 so don't need endless adjustability with extra's, my only concern is I am 6 foot 5 (195cm) and 16 stone (100kg) with broad shoudlers so not sure if I would fit in the bucket seat and I don't have the option to try it anywhere in the country I live in.

Thanks for any advice.
