You’ve likely heard me say in our Direct Drive wheelbase reviews for a few years now that “everything is good now”, and “there isn’t really a wrong choice, so don’t overthink it”. But with so many brands now speaking about their exclusive approaches to “next gen force feedback”, how do we navigate the marketing and make the right choice, and does it actually make a tangible difference? This video and article is designed to empower you with the knowledge required to cut through the marketing fluff and understand what’s actually going on. Sound good? OK, let’s dive in, starting with the most important questions, and tend digging deeper into the jargon! _________________________ 🛈 How Boosted Media Makes Money and Why it Matters: https://boostedmedia.net/automotive/vlog/how-boosted-media-earns-money-why-it-matters _________________________ 🔥 *BOOSTED* *MEDIA* *APPROVED* *PARTNER* *NETWORK:* Find a recommended Sim Racing Hardware Reseller Near You! 💥 https://boostedmedia.net/dealers/ If you'd like to pick up any of the gear you see in my videos, I'd love it if you could use the following links.

About Wheelbase

In both road and rail vehicles, the wheelbase is the horizontal distance between the centers of the front and rear wheels. For road vehicles with more than two axles, the wheelbase is the distance between the steering (front) axle and the centerpoint of the driving axle group. In the case of a tri-axle truck or bus, the wheelbase would be the distance between the steering axle and a point midway between the two rear axles.
