Reviewers who have tested the Thrustmaster T818 Direct Drive wheelbase are mostly unimpressed. The Logitech G Pro Direct Drive wheelbase remains the top choice among the new “mainstream” direct drive units. Some reviewers are comparing the Logitech wheelbase to wheelbases costing more than twice the price, such as the Leo Bodnar Direct Drive wheelbase which retails for $4423 US. The Moza R9 wheelbase is priced just under the T818, yet outperforms it in testing.
Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0
Master your laps without dominating the room. The Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0 stands rock-solid for direct-drive wheels, yet folds away in seconds when real life calls. Full adjustability for wheel, pedals, and shifter lets a man settle into his proper position the honest way. A clever chair cradle keeps your seat planted under hard braking, while predrilled mounts welcome Thrustmaster, Fanatec, Logitech, and the rest. Upgrade later to a full cockpit with the GTSeat add-on. Serious performance, sensible footprint—no compromises required.
