Black Friday is the perfect time to get into sim racing, with huge savings on racing wheels, racing games and all the accessories you need to start strong.
If you don’t know me already from my Gran Turismo 7 and F1 22 reviews, I’m the resident car geek on the Laptop Mag team. I have a relatively cheap setup with the Thrustmaster T248 wheel and GT-Lite cockpit, which is nowhere near top of the range, but is more than enough for most players.
But in this year’s big sale season, it looks like you can make your money go a lot further and invest hard into making the most of (what I think is) an incredibly exciting hobby. Allow me to take you on a tour of the best deals.
