"It's like the Jetsons, but it's here now." These words perfectly capture the excitement coursing through the sim racing community as affordable 3D printing technology transforms what's possible for home racing setups. In this tech-packed episode, Jason, Eric, and Jeff share their journey into the world of 3D printing, revealing how this once-futuristic technology has become an essential part of their sim racing evolution.
The conversation takes a major turn as we dive into Moza's market-disrupting hardware announcements. Their new force feedback shifter offers 12Nm of torque with incredible versatility—functioning as an H-pattern shifter, sequential, handbrake, or even a flight stick. But the true showstopper is their M Booster active pedal, priced at $799-$999, less than half the cost of competitors like Simicube. We explore the important question on everyone's mind: can this budget-friendly option deliver comparable performance to its premium-priced rivals?
The team also explores iRacing's latest update, which brings significant graphic improvements that make third-party visual enhancement tools obsolete. We challenge preconceptions about NASCAR sim racing, with the hosts agreeing that oval racing delivers some of the most intense and challenging virtual racing experiences available. The episode wraps with valuable insights on overcoming VR motion sickness, offering practical tips that could help more sim racers experience the immersion of virtual reality racing.
Whether you're considering upgrading your sim racing hardware, curious about 3D printing possibilities, or looking to enhance your virtual racing experience, this episode provides essential insights from experienced enthusiasts who are constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible in home sim racing.
