    What a wonderful year, Kireth. I sincerely hope that your forward momentum continues, though with such a broad spectrum of the sim. racing community covered within your content, I can legitimately see no reason as to why it should not, 🙌✨️.
    A very happy new year to you, and huge thanks for your posts over the last year.

    I returned my SF1000 for the Ferrari 488 wheel, very happy with my decision.

    I would recommend wrapping the grips with tennis tape; they will wear down before the rubber of the wheel and there are different thickness, grip levels and padding available to choose from, to wrap the rim how you'd like!

    I own both and i would recommend the SF1000. The hypercar wheel looks fancy and has nice materials, but i think that the grips are too stiff and they are hurting my hands after a while. The SF1000 is the perfect fit for modern race cars like LMDh imo.

    Wonder if it would be a good wheel for iracing. You need to try Kireth, maybe in combination with the T598.

    I have both, the sf1000 is great but is still 'last gen'. They did release a new quick release upgrade for it though that replaces the old style QR completely. I'm on the fence about going that route though as it requires taking the rim apart and I'm personally OK with the regular adapter that came with my T818.

    I would like to see your opinion on the Evo Racing 32R steering wheel, an interesting proposal from Thrustmaster. What I don't understand is that Thrustmaster markets the Evo Racing Hub but doesn't have any steering wheel to apply to it. Supposedly there should be a formula type steering wheel to apply to this Hub.

    Sf1000 is my go to. You need to dial one of the middle nobs right to be able to use secondary paddles for handbrake grid starts. 2 thumb wheel encoders near grips are fuel and BB which is really handy. But i prefer the chrono paddles which are extra. Gear changes are instantly sharp. 👍

    Really disappointed the sf1000 doesn’t work out of the box with the new QR. tempted to go with Logi g pro. If im gonna spend the same

    Are these too heavy for the T598? Will you reduce the feeling of the force feedback?

    • @Kireth
      @Kireth  7 днів тому +2

      The Hypercar definitely feels heavier on T598 than the bundled rim! But this also has benefits with oscillation. Pros and cons

    They are both Ferrari designs actually. The Hypercar wheel is the Ferrari F80 wheel.

    • @awakeandwatching953

      well thats cause you drive gt7.. other sims have brake bias, abs, TC, TC cut and TC slip that can all be adjusted on the fly in the car even with fixed set up races.. the screen is more for people who drive in an f1 style position.. also 65 inch tv means nothing if its a couple metres from your eyes while some one has a 32 inch between their wheel and wheel base
