I have the Logitech G27 and need a mount/ stand solution PLEASE

[lakersfreak]

Hello to all!!!! I wanted the wheelstand Pro but they're out of stock until end of March (I can't wait that long)!!!

I have 2 stands available to buy and need all your opinions (even if you don't have these stands).

The Revolution

http://cgi.ebay.com/Revolution-Rigs...ps=63&clkid=6560934203287711771#ht_3832wt_908

and the Virtual Racing Simulator stand

NEED EVERYONES OPINION PLEASE!!! I CAN'T DECIDE

I say the Fanatec one but you'll have to wait like everyone else. The other two doesn't show up in your posted links.

Good luck!

I dont have a G27 but the first one looks sturdier.

 

[DynoNobel]

second one looks better to me. I am currently using an end table that is the right height but not enough room to position the pedals right. I see that the Amazon one you linked looks like it has nice leg room.

With the Ebay stand, it looks like leg room would be an issue. I know its adjustable but you want the wheel at the right height, and look at the pic with the chair...where would your legs go there?

Anyay, I obviously have neither of them, but thats my opinion based on my current issues and from looking at the pics

I have been using this Rennsport Wheelstand by Fanatec for few weeks now, and love it. Unfortunately I needed the adapter for the shifter for G25, and I think you would too for G27, however the stand is worth it IMO.

Or you could build one easily for about $30

I like the looks of the Fanatec one myself.

 

[ShylockHolmes]

Fanatec, it's solid and heavy, looks great and transmits wheel vibrations right down to your pedals!

 

[TheBuG]

Or do like me and make one yourself

But i guess its easier to buy a stand that is made for a wheel then to make one yourself

 

[JGW]

I made my stand as well. Cost me about $60 and a couple of hours.

Wheelstand pro and wait . Have you tried contacting wheelstand pro directly? I got mine on Xmas eve, but the local distributors wanted me to wait till the end of Jan.

 

[dhandeh]

It's worth the wait. You won't be disappointed with a wheelstandpro.

 

[Lillee]

Make one, it's miles cheaper and pretty easy

 

[ikarys]

Good luck mounting a wheel to this

 

[Steve_D]

Personally I'd wait for the Wheelstand pro they are awesome but looking at those two, the first looks like it's home made from offcuts of overflow pipe.

Hmmm how did you contact wheelstand directly?????

Through their website -> http://www.wheelstandpro.com/

There is a distributor in Australia which is http://www.wheelstandpro.com.au/

In fact, on the distributor website, they mentioned if the wait is too long, to contact WSP directly.

Ya I actually just ordered it through the website... Here in the US the distributor wanted me to wait until end of March!!!! Wayyy too long. Hopefully won't take that long through them.

Just got an email from fanatec stating that their wheel is available now... So do I cancel my $190 wheelstand pro and buy the fanatec for $140? Which stand is better???? Thanks to all

 

[ikarys]

Their wheel is available? I thought you had a G27?

The wheelstand pro has transformed my 3 seater micro suede couch into a racing machine... Can't go wrong

 

[lakersfreak]

sorry i was talking about the stand. i do have a g27. they have a stand for the g27.

 

[highlifeGT]

the "Bob Earl Racing" cockpit was a good purchase for me. It takes up a bit of space during game play, but its a nice compromise if you want a cockpit that is collapsable to a degree, and doesnt look completely nerded out with an actual car chair sitting high up.

The bob earl sits on the floor, and folds up nicely. Decent purchase for 250$

All I know is, I have a WSP, and its fantastic.

You can get the cheaper one if that's what you want.

 

[Black05Hemi]

I just got a G27 too, and have been looking for a wheelstand, but decided to buy the Obutto cockpit so I can invert my pedals

 

[ikarys]

Wow inverting the pedals on the G27 looks like a mega PITA.

lakersfreak:

Same issue as you. I went to order the WSP from US and they told me late march. I just got an email back from the main WSP site and they said 2 week backorder plus add 1 week for delivery. Its a little more expensive to buy from there but having it in 3 weeks instead of 6-7 maybe worth it..........that is if they can get it to me in 3 weeks.


What has been your experience so far?

 

[Octane-Junky]

Check out this company www.pitbikesupply.com under ESP racing. I think they have what your looking for. From what I hear their products stable and well made.

 

[Gunstar]

Here's the G27 on a Rennsport. Got it last night.


I'm liking it so far, took a few laps this morning, made a couple adjustments, it's really coming together for me now.
