My name is Barry Rowland. I am a Sim Racing enthusiast that has been doing this for a long time. In my early years just out of school, I campaigned a Datsun 510 in the SCCA. I had to stop due to expenses. So, I took up Sim Racing to provide me with my racing fix. Of course, nothing will ever replace racing a real car. But for me this will have to do. I now do reviews on Sim Racing Hardware. I love to see how things are built. Materials used, build quality, and of course how they perform. I developed the SRG process that all review material must go through. Giving you as much detail as I can. It is the only way I know to let you make the most informed decision possible on purchasing Sim Racing gear. I used to buy the items I review. Due to my own budget constraints, I have recently been allowing manufacturers to send me an item at no cost to me for review. However, they still go through the same detailed SRG review process, something I could not compromise on.

Awesome video, 👌 I'm starting with a full moza setup. But it's good to know what other options are offered.
Love the review, decided to order, but they were not able to actually deliver anything. After 3 weeks, I demanded a refund. Too bad because the design seems great, but the company is dead.
Thank you very much for this video, it helped me alot to disasemble my TGT-II, all the details wit hthe different screws was very helpful. Thanks!!!
Do ONLY Moza wheels plug in it?
Pls help I can’t get my display to work it just keeps cycling between the thrustmaster and Ferrari screen
I have a question on just how much noise it makes in-game? I live in A situation where sound is A factor and I heard the Logitech G29 in the store and it sounds like A miniature jackhammer. I've just seen A video where in the firmware v5.4 and in NFS there's a grind/whine in idle situations. Does that apply to all games? Or am I just whistling Dixie?
Barry I need help I have the thrustmaster ferrari f1 1000 wheel I open the wheel to expose the spider to heat the bolts to remove them nothing worked the bolts will not move can you buy the spider..
How does this compare to the Mod Cambio ?
Here's me posting on a really old video, but for situations where you're mating up two parts, both with the same threads, and you want actual clamping force, you need a BOLT with the threads ground off close to the head. Instead of forever altering the part, you can just grind down 1/4" of the bolt's threads (or just a hair over the thickness of the part) or just run down to the hardware store to get a bolt that works for that. Bolts are cheap, these parts are not.
shame im years to late noe its double the price nad that in Euros over here
bro you're reviews are always kick ass. They stand the test of time and always provide MORE details than necessary which imo is great especially considering you add time stamps. You have helped me with my big purchases of VRS base and pedals as well as this rig. Keep it up brotha!
everything i own has been through the SRG and comes with Barry's stamps of approval
Lol, hour long review of a simple profile cockpit. Good grief.
I wish i could get it but 400 dollars for a add on thats not compatible with my 458 spider wheel? Yes i know it can work on an actual f1 car but i mean still 400 dollars for a addon!?
did you bolt the sliders upside down
I hate when i always spill my beer down my H shifter hahaha 😂
Hi, thanks for this video ! my GS wheel present a problem on the right stick. can you tell me if it's possible to change this stick my self ?
Please consider doing an update on this. I had mine run for one evening then, nothing. The software seems to run, the ACC game is "patched and I launch ACC from the Motionhouse servicer software, but no fans run. They run when the button in back is pushed to test the power connections. But it not in any game. I'm currently working with Motion House in hope of finding a solution. Thx.
Nice review, I just ordered mine and Im still trying to figure out what preload to use, Which one is closes to factory on logitech 920? I assuming the smallest one axc has ?
Oranges weigh more than limes.
then gotta test it going thru the base cause that’s the most common config. All the best
Dude thank you so much for making these videos Im building my 4080 rig and i have so little info on mounting. You make things so much easier by showing all of these details
Can you please list where to get the plates in the side bar?
My th8a plug in PC,PS4,no response,where can i get this cable?😅
I just bought a set and this video will be my type of "bible" to face possible faults in the future... Fingers crossed, I won't have any issues, I am sure. Thank you very much for the ultra-thorough review!!
Four years later, I'll use it for my Sim
and there he goes
5 year old video and honestly still the best video about installtion on this products. this man teach like bob ross love it.
Please, back to action and new reviews on channel !!
Thanks for the video, it helped me set mine up!! 6sigma is amazing! Love that company!!
Outstanding content. Thank-You!
For people who wants to know were Barry is. I read this on Reddit i quote ''He lives near me, like 10 mins up the street. I bought my rig from him. Just doesn’t care and has many other interests. His main rig was set up for flight when I was there. He said at the end of the day it’s all just hardware that basically works the same and it was getting tiring. He does a lot of photography and competition rifle stuff. Really nice guy, went to buy the rig and was there for like 2 hours. Edit it was cool felt like I met a celebrity from our niche ha"
Miss him here in the UK for sure, thorough thoughtful videos that are easy to understand, and engagingly educational, Take care sir if you happen upon this old man's comment.
Yes this is all true. I've been watching his videos for years and had no idea he lives in the same City as I. I found out about 3 months ago when I bought a handbrake from him. I was at his home yesterday. He lost interest in sim racing but he's doing great! Hope he comes back but I doubt it.
Coma back ol' Barry we miss you!
Thankyou Barry i am going to book a test drive at the UK supplier, 150 miles from me but worth it to experience before I purchase I think. thanks again for a great review
do not screw the thing in like that. it is not meant to move like that. if you simply push it it will move. do not spin it like this guy you will cut your hands up trying to do so. very irresponsible and incorrect installation guide here.
You should not be rotating the thing to get it to line up. Simply push it. I cut my thumb trying to rotate the thing to align it as you showed but that is wrong.
Dose it still support that latest f1 games can anyone help ?
What will be the benefits of unplugging the transducer?
Hola, me gustaría preguntar, tengo el t818 hace un año, es normal que después de una hora de carrera, note un roce en el eje? será debido a algún tipo de dilatación por la fricción? gracias de antemano y saludos.
NRG stye that was stolen from works bell
Almost 18 months on, is there any chance you have had chance to try a newer model of the T818? I have seen some mention (and I hope it's true) that Thrustmaster might have reduced the flex somehow? It looks like a good wheel, but I am still concerned about the flex, it's the only thing putting me off. You're evaluation is always honest and thorough and I'd really appreciate your up to date view on this.
lecz trzeba wspomnieć że przetwornik blokuje wylot powietrza oraz szybko psuje się wentylator który trzeba wymienić na mocniejszy oraz wydajniejszy np. Noctua NF-A4X20 5V
thanks a lot for explaining the clutch configuration 👌🏽
Barry, I hope you are in good health, it is needed here!! hugs
Really enjoy your in-depth reviews Thanks!
Is there a large difference between this and the NRG FRP 301 seat?
Great video.
Miss your videos... I'm in the market for a new seat.
This is a misleading review. "Pneumatic damping" implies air is used instead of liquid. I bought these pedals under the premise that there was no risk for a leak. Well, I have a leak. So I call BS that these are pneumatics. It is unfortunate that this video is 63 minutes long but doesn't discuss the tremendous risks and headaches of how the brakes REALLY work. Such a shame. This video assured me that buying these pedals was as risk-free as it could be. Pneumatics are safer than hydraulics. Well, clearly, this was a lie.
I found that you can easily make the shifters pretty much silent by simply putting some rubber bands behind them
Awful product I've had the ferrari package for less than a week and it broken so sent it back and got a refund. Do not buy this product read the reviews they're most.y negative about the t818.
