What FFB is realistic for sim drifting? (2 to 20 Nm)

Thanks to HelloFresh for sponsoring today's video.

I tested sim drifting at different force feedback strengths from 2 Nm all the way up to 20 Nm using my direct drive wheelbase, combined with my years of experience drifting real cars, to lean which FFB strength was too weak and a waste of money, which range was good for sim enthusiasts on a limited budget, which is perfect for a sim drifting "forever purchase" and where FFB is too much and you end up paying for wheel strength that you don't actually need.

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.
