it's a fantastic setup. i used to drive it on my desk with tracks i go to - glen, VIR, summit, etc. then now i'm full sim racing. can't tell you how beneficial it is. to be able to race and learn every day whenever i want. it took my driving to a whole new level ina short period of time

I was looking at that rig but I have heard it moves too much with direct drive wheels.

I have the Accuforce and even at 13Nm of torque it plenty strong to vibrate any setup that isn't super stiff. I was in the shop and heard 2 customers regret getting cockpits that aren't super stiff. I recommend the aluminum extrusion setups as they are super stiff and super flexible in setup types.

That being said you can get just as familiar with the tracks with a cheap logitech wheel mounted to a desk. The better wheel and pedals will be more for if you're intending to sim race competitively and improve your driving more as they'll provide a little more realistic feedback.
I suggest trying VR as well as you'll feel more at-home on track as though you're actually there. The ability to turn your head and look to apexes is great

The Accuforce is priced so close to the Fanatec Clubsport that it should elicit a serious look. The direct drive gives so much more feedback and than you add the Sim Commander 4 software and it really is a no brainer if you have a stiff enough cockpit to handle the DD steering wheel.
