This is considered “low end” for Playseats
I like saving $$ as much as anyone else, but I don't do the "Cheap is as Cheap does" thingy, and I can quickly recognize garbaggio clustercrap when I see it :D
As much as I like racing SIMs, if I got a wheel I'd rather get a solid stand like the GT Omega.
Recaro seats are nice on the track, but at home I'm a La-Z-Boy.
