Immersive driving simulation comes to life in the details. Dual-motor force feedback makes you feel every tire slip and terrain change. Solid steel ball bearings in the wheel shaft give weight and durability. Stainless steel paddle shifters and floor pedals apply precision force. Hand-stitched leather covered wheel makes every car luxury. Helical gearing delivers smooth, quiet operation.

Feel your tires on every turn and type of terrain. Sense under and oversteer drifting with precision. Feel every weight shift and tire slip, and the road conditions that caused them. Powerful dual-motor force feedback realistically simulates force effects so you can respond immediately and accurately.

Driving Force handles the stress of racing action and is built for long-lasting reliability. Solid steel ball bearings are used in the wheel shaft. Stainless steel paddle shifters and pedals feel great under pressure. The wheel is covered in high-quality, hand-stitched leather for a premium sports car feel. Grab your car by the wheel for a more realistic, comfortable and durable racing experience.

Exceptionally smooth, quiet steering action thanks to helical gears modeled after gears used in automotive transmissions. Anti-backlash keeps the wheel and pedals tight, maximizing your control. Driving Force Racing Wheel also features a long lasting, reliable hall-effect steering sensor, using magnetic fields to sense the position of the wheel.

All your controls are where you can reach them. The D-Pad, buttons and paddle shifters are incorporated into the racing wheel. LED indicator lights positioned just above the center of the wheel tell you exactly when to up- or down-shift so you maintain maximum acceleration without taking your eyes off the track. A 24-point selection dial and the +/- buttons on the front of the wheel let you further fine-tune your driving preferences.

Maintain a more realistic driving body position with the separate floor pedal unit with integrated throttle, brake, and clutch pedals. Driving Force lets you comfortably accelerate, brake and change gears with the feel of an actual car.

The nonlinear brake pedal mimics the performance of a pressure-sensitive brake system for a more responsive, accurate braking feel. For even finer control, reposition the pedal faces to make heel-toe maneuvers easier to perform.

So just got a PS4, and converting over from a xbox360 seat setup. I think after reading all the reviews I am going to go with the T300rs with the T3PA-pro pedals. But I really don't want to spend $160 on the TH8A shifter, and I like the look of the Logitech driving force shifter better. Does anyone know if the Logitech shifter will work with the T300rs? I watched a review of the G29 where the t500 shifter was used so I am hoping it works in reverse. Also is there anything I'm missing about the TH8A over the Driving force shifter besides 7 speeds? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

When I upgraded from my old G27 rig I was blown away by how much of an improvement the TH8A was. It's like the difference between a Fiero and a Ferrari lol. If you have the $150 to spend on the shifter I highly recommend it. When I first got my T300 wheel I thought about buying the adapter since I had modified my G27 shifter into a custom built console, and had an aftermarket shifter knob & boot on it.....but after having the TH8A in my hands I never wanted to touch the logitech shifter again.

Since 2007, Inside Sim Racing has been the number one show dedicated to the world of simulated motorsports. Every episode, we will bring you stories from a variety of genres in the world of Simulated Racing.

The Gran Turismo official steering wheels (such as the GT FORCE or Driving Force, see the trademark symbols difference) are a series of racing wheels designed by Logitech (a.k.a. Logicool in Japan) in collaboration with Polyphony Digital. These racing games controllers are designed to be used with the PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 systems but later models can be used on PC as well due to their USB connection.The GT Force is the central part of a driving simulation cockpit installation. Official kits are co-designed and released in Japan by Logicool and Sparco[1] (distributed by import tuner Endless in North America), while compatible kits are designed and released worldwide by European manufacturers such as Playseat[2] and MoveTech.[3]

The original GT Force first came out in Japan and South East Asia in 2001. It was later released in North America and Europe. The brand soon evolved to "Driving Force" in these Logitech distributed territories. Code product is "LPRC" for Logicool PlayStation Racing Controller.

A "GT Force for Gran Turismo 2000" (Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec, LPRC-10001) was scheduled for 2001,[6] however due to a game title change it was replaced by the "GT Force Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec" custom version released on April 28, 2001.

The Driving Force is the first evolution of the GT Force announced at the London Games Convention in early September 2001.[8] This model is discontinued since it was replaced by the Driving Force Pro in 2003.

Manufactured by Logitech for the PlayStation 2 primarily as well as being compatible with select PC games, the wheel featured force feedback and 900 degree rotation. The wheel offers analogue accelerator and brake pedals, a sequential gear shift to the side and paddle shifters mounted on the back of the wheel in addition to the standard PlayStation 2 buttons. The controller was jointly designed by Logitech and Polyphony Digital to be used with Gran Turismo 4, however works in games not compatible with the 900 degree rotation by switching into a 200 degree mode. The wheel received strong praise from reviewers at launch for being an overall good experience when paired with Gran Turismo 4.[11][12]

The Driving Force EX (also known as the GT Force RX (LPRC-12000) or Driving Force RX (Retail Version)) is the PlayStation 3 official wheel released on the console's launch date, November 11, 2006.[14] It features force feedback and was succeeded by Driving Force GT. The wheel came bundled with Formula One Championship Edition.

Developed in conjunction with Polyphony Digital, first introduced at the 2007 Tokyo Game Show and intended for use with Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Gran Turismo 5 and all PlayStation 3 auto racing games, the Driving Force GT is the fifth entry in the company's Driving Force series of game controllers.
