Hello guys,

I'm interesting on take a iracing subscription but in the web page I cannot see my wheel (simucube 2) between compatible wheels.

I know that there is a lot of videos with people playing iracing with simucube but, I need anything special to achieve simucube working with simucube?

Everyone I’ve ever seen using a Simucube base has been using iRacing. I’m pretty sure it’ll work well.

My wheelbase (Accuforce V2) is also not on that page and it works fine.

iRacing’s wheel and pedal compatibility is pretty complete. It’s games like Dirt Rally or Forza Horizon where you see the occasional issue, not iRacing.

Thanks for your reply mate

I understand but my worried is to have a problem like I saw in Reddit when the simucube got crazy in iracing and broke a finger of a mate.

So here’s the thing. No company selling you a wheelbase (especially a DD wheelbase) will promise you it won’t hurt you. There are disclaimers all over the legal info for these products saying to keep them away from children, etc.

These things are massive, power hungry, industrial strength motors. There are dozens of ways they can hurt you. iRacing and other sims have options to reduce the forces in crashes and when parked. The software that came with my wheelbase also has options like these.

But, there are driver errors, USB glitches, etc.

If you’re looking for someone on the internet to promise you it’s safe and that it won’t hurt you when using it with iRacing, I don’t think you’re going to find that assurance.

That is true mate. I think I'll need to looking for a proper configuration in the game or in the driver to avoid this things.

Thank you very much for your comments

I run an SC2 Pro, going on close to a year, without issue in iRacing. If you turn on high torque, be sure to let go in a wreck, it'll wrench your wrists good if you hit right.
