Sim racers have never been spoiled for choice when it comes to picking thebest racing wheels for PCor consoles.
Turtle Beach has firmly gone with the latter because the VelocityOne Race is a huge, heavy lump.
Its an all-plastic shell but feels sufficiently premium with a solid build quality that doesnt flex or creak anywhere.
Unfortunately, not all of the VelocityOne Races wheel inputs feel quite so good.
The VelocityOne Race pedals are a mix of good and bad.
Unfortunately, the results arent quite there yet.
The pedals arent without a few quirks themselves.
The Race Management Display is a nifty addition and will be particularly useful for Xbox players.
However it must be said that at this stage I found the changes each setting made particularly gentle.
Even going from one extreme to another on some tweaks prompted a very minor difference in on-track feel.
Its a shame as this is a stand-out feature against other wheels.
Hopefully, therell be great plug-and-play support for this with future updates.
There are promising signs, but it needs to overcome some rookie errors.
In my testing, this was highlighted by just how much changed from one firmware update to another.
The force feedback felt completely different with each but in most cases did improve.
It makes me hopeful for the future with Turtle Beach in the sim racing space.
