Sim racing · head‑to‑head
The TR40S Racing Simulator & Moza R3 Wheel, Wheelbase and Pedal Set delivers a complete, entry-level direct drive cockpit setup to get you racing immediately. Meanwhile, the VNM Simulation Stick Shift Bundle – 3-Pedal Set & Dual-Mode Shifter is a premium, specialized control upgrade designed for drivers who already have a rig and wheelbase.
The Moza R3's 3.9 Nm motor can run warm under sustained heavy force feedback, and some users report minor software jankiness or FFB dropouts in Pit House. Meanwhile, the VNM shifter requires a tedious process with an Allen key to switch modes, and its H-pattern sensors can misidentify gears.
The Moza SR-P Lite pedals lack a load cell and will slide unless hard-mounted, though the R3 wheelbase can be upgraded within its own ecosystem. Meanwhile, the VNM pedals do not include a heel plate out of the box, and the brake spring stack can squeak under high tension.
If you need a complete, rigid foundation and a plug-and-play direct drive wheel to start racing immediately, the TR40S Racing Simulator & Moza R3 Wheel, Wheelbase and Pedal Set is an unmatched all-in-one package for $709.00. However, if you already own a cockpit and want to upgrade to premium CNC-machined controls, the VNM Simulation Stick Shift Bundle – 3-Pedal Set & Dual-Mode Shifter delivers exceptional build quality and load-cell precision, currently priced at $892.05.
The VNM bundle's price has remained unchanged over the last 30 days at $892.05, though it has dipped as low as $699.10 in the past. The TR40S and Moza R3 bundle sits at $709.00, though its historical price trend remains unknown.
