Is the FS3 V2 worth it over a cheaper wheel stand?

Yes if you run a direct drive base or want a shifter mount and folding in one frame. Budget stands flex under strong force feedback; the V2 bracing is the main reason to pay more.

Will it handle my direct drive wheel base?

Trak Racer recommends 0 to 5Nm of wheelbase torque on the wheel plate. Bases running well above that, like high-torque Simucube or Asetek units, will likely show flex.

Does it come with a seat?

No. The box contains the FS3 V2 stand and the Office Chair Wheel Tray. You use your own chair, and the tray sits under its casters to stop it rolling.

How big is it when folded?

It folds into a compact package in seconds, but at 39.5 lbs it is still a substantial item to carry. Plan a closet or corner for storage.

Which wheels and pedals fit?

The plates are pre-drilled for Fanatec, Logitech, Heusinkveld and other major brands, with a steel pedal plate and a wheel plate. Check your specific base's bolt pattern before buying.

Sim racing hardware tends to discount around Black Friday and major sim-racing sales events. Watch the price history rather than buying at first sight.

Our take on the FS3 V2 Wheel Stand

The Trak Racer FS3 V2 is a folding steel wheel stand for sim racing, built to hold a wheel base, pedals and a shifter without a full cockpit. Its V2 revision adds rigidity for direct drive wheel bases and ships with an office chair wheel tray so a desk chair stays put under braking. It adjusts in three height stages, the wheel plate slides 30mm and the pedal tray up to 100mm, and it folds down in seconds. It weighs 39.5 lbs and measures 895mm long by 584mm wide assembled.

What reviewers say

Owner feedback on the FS3 line centers on stiffness for the money and the convenience of folding it away, with the V2 seen as a real step up for direct drive wheels. Complaints tend to be about weight and flex under very strong bases.

Quick fold for storage between sessions
