One of the most commonly discussed topics in sim racing is the impact that equipment has on performance.
Many people find their lap times and consistency improve dramatically with more expensive, better quality equipment, but at the same time there are so many examples of people who are unbelievably quick using entry level gear.
So in this video series we’re going to start from the beginning with an entry level rig consisting of a Logitech G923 and Next Level Racing GT-Lite to see what exactly you can expect from a basic rig, then follow through a typical upgrade path to see where the best value lies, and how to best prioritise your spending to get maximum enjoyment from your money!
