r/simrally

I recently upgraded from a Moza R5 and originally planned on buying Simagic. I spent probably 5–7 hours a day for several days researching, reading Reddit threads, watching reviews, and talking directly with both Conspit and Simagic before finally making a decision.

In the end, I went with the Conspit Ares 12 Nm paired with the CPP Apex pedals, and honestly… the difference is night and day.

I mainly drive rally, so I’m not even using the full 12 Nm yet, and I’ve only had a few hours behind the wheel before leaving town for the holidays. Even with that limited time, I’m seriously impressed.

A few things that stood out:

The steering wheel feels fantastic in the hands.
The force feedback has so much more detail than what I was used to. You can feel a lot more of what the car is doing.

The Conspit software has been surprisingly good. Every setting has detailed explanations, which made dialing everything in much less intimidating.

One thing I wasn’t sure about at first was the hydraulic brake pedal. Coming from the Moza SRP pedals, it felt very different initially. After spending some time with it though, I completely get the hype. The jump to a load-cell/hydraulic brake is incredible and gives you so much more confidence once you start getting used to it.

The other thing that really helped me make my decision was Conspit’s customer support. I can’t really compare it to Moza or Simagic since I haven’t owned those products, but every time I’ve reached out—whether through Discord or email—I’ve gotten a response anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. That level of communication gave me a lot of confidence before I even placed my order.

Overall, I know Conspit isn’t as common as some of the bigger brands, but so far I’m really happy with the decision. I’m looking forward to putting a lot more hours on it once I’m back home.

If anyone has questions about the Ares or the CPP Apex pedals, especially for rally, I’d be happy to answer what I can.

Just sharing my rig that I recently "mostly" finished up. My biggest requirement is that it needed to be somewhat portable and able to stow away when im not using it. As you can probably see, its setup in my music room which is already pretty tight. I did pretty much the entire setup using budget items and honestly, its working out great. I still need to work out a couple little kinks here and there but its been great so far.

The cockpit is the Mineer foldable cockpit available on temu and other sellers. I did a detailed review of this last fall. TLDR, its great and is holding up well. $155

Moza r3 bundle with the clutch pedal and break pedal spring mod. ~$350

Mineer triple monitor stand on wheels $100

3x Sceptre 1080p 100hz 27" monitors (prime day deal $85ea)

Amazon 6sp H pattern shifter ~$50

Amazon ebrake $40

I had a couple extra Klipsch Quintet speakers laying around so I picked up a cheap stereo amplifier on Amazon to run them. I mounted them to the top of the monitor stand with a couple zip ties. The amp was $25.

I used roughly 50 dollars in miscellaneous cabling including longer DP cables.

For a little over 1k, it checks all my boxes and im pretty happy with it. Im not counting my PC in the mix as I already owned it prior to the hobby for other games and production. I do really enjoy playing in VR but its not sustainable for me after more than a few minutes at a time. This was my VR alternative (though im still keeping my Rift S).

Now I just need some friends to race with 🙃

I got no penalties, because this accident happened after cross the line.

Hi, I just got into sim racing about a month ago. I bought my first wheel which was an R3, I loved it so I returned it and got the R5. Two weeks go by and I see an ad on simshop for the simagic alpha evo sport bundle for $599. I bought it right away and retuned my R5. I couldn’t be happier with the choice I went. Eventually I will upgrade to the 18nm wheel base in the next few months but for now I just need to get a good feel for sim racing. I did wrap my gt Neo wheel in tennis wrap because I have fairly large hands and this wheel is a bit uncomfortable after the 1hr mark. I am absolutely loving it so far and have many many future plans because I have unlimited space. I ordered an aluminum rig on amazing for $250 including seat which isn’t the best but beats an office chair any day. The rig is absolutely amazing for the price I paid. I have also added dual locking polyurethane caster wheels so I can move it out of the way when I need to use my pc for other tasks. Zero flex but the seat does flex since it’s a two piece under heavy braking which is the only downside but will eventually get a full carbon seat in the near future. My next upgrade within the next few weeks will be to get ultrawide monitor or maybe even a triple monitor setup but I’ll need to upgrade my cpu and gpu for that since my 3070 won’t be able to handle it. I did do some cable management but not super satisfied with it so I’ll run it under the pedals so no wires are showing. All in all I’m in about $850 and I couldn’t be happier. Please feel free to leave any feedback or improvements you recommend I do. I’m here to learn and the more information I have the better of a setup I can build.

O que você acha? É bom? Está em promoção! Não sei se é mais estilo arcade ou mais realista.

Edit: It looks decent to me, so can you tell me which version I can buy?

EXO Rally Championship is awesome. I only heard about it from seeing a reddit post, so I am passing on that favor. It is very fun. You can set it up with a wheel, a joystick, a wheel and a joystick, 3 joysticks, 5 joysticks, probably 4 joysticks and a pedal and a joystick too...

There is no telemetry output yet but the Dev is active and it could happen I think :)

Check it out!
