Logitech G With New Racing Series

An expanded series of wheels, shifters, and handbrakes offering greater customization for all racing styles

Logitech G today announced the launch of the new Racing Series, marking an important milestone in Logitech G’s sim racing history. The Racing Series introduces groundbreaking innovations and customization options that allow drivers to tailor their setup to their individual needs.
– ”Many sim racing drivers have expressed the desire for their setup to reflect the car they’re driving, whether it’s handling gravel in a rally car, drifting with burning tires, or navigating with precision. We developed the RS system specifically for motorsport enthusiasts who want to play their way,” says Richard Neville, head of SIM product engineering at Logitech G.

Sim racing drivers, above all, want the experience to replicate the feeling of driving a real car. This includes not only the steering wheel but also shifters and handbrakes. Additionally, sim racers want the ability to upgrade their system based on needs or budget. They want the option to purchase specific components to achieve certain goals, whether it’s reaching a desired torque level in the wheel, choosing a particular wheel shape, or ensuring compatibility across multiple platforms with a single unit.

Every component in the Racing Series is designed to meet the highest standards of quality and performance, giving drivers the equipment and customization options to create a cutting-edge racing experience that mirrors the demands of real-world racing. All products in the Racing Series are compatible with Pro Series racing products. Additionally, certain items are compatible with previous products via the Logitech G Racing Adapter.
The new Racing Series includes the following new products:

Logitech G RS Wheel Hub
Developed to be compatible with both PC and console, as well as to work across different racing disciplines, the Logitech G RS Wheel Hub can be seamlessly paired with all of Logitech G’s Direct Drive bases and supports single, double, or triple setups.
The RS Wheel Hub features an easy-to-use quick-release mechanism that ensures a secure, friction-free mounting for your wheels. It supports both Racing Series and Logitech G x MOMO wheels.
The adjustable paddles can be widened to fit different wheel sizes and are removable when the RS Wheel Hub is used with the Logitech G RS Shifter & Handbrake. Additionally, users can enhance their sim racing experience with customizable RGB rev lights. Through G HUB, they can adjust light patterns, direction, and color.

Logitech G RS Track Wheel
The perfect tool for track racing, the Logitech G RS Track Wheel is designed to meet the demands of long races. It combines ergonomically shaped TPE (thermoplastic elastomers) with lightweight, low-carbon aluminum. This design provides enhanced ventilation, comfort, and grip, even at high speeds over extended periods.

The TPE material, uniquely shaped with a custom microtexture pattern, offers breathability and improved grip. The result is a wheel that molds to your hands, providing exceptional synchronization between you and the action on screen, boosting confidence at high speeds.
The RS Track Wheel is built for durability, maintaining top performance without compromise. It attaches easily to the Logitech G RS Wheel Hub, with bolts and an Allen key included.

The Logitech G RS Round Wheel
Designed to maintain maximum control during rapid wheel rotations, the Logitech G RS Round Wheel helps drivers dominate on the track. The wheel is made from high-performance silicone leather and low-carbon aluminum. The material gives a premium feel, while the intuitive and fuller grip profile provides optimal handling through hairpin turns and curves. The result is a wheel that molds to your hands, offering unmatched synchronization between you and the action on the screen. The choice of materials maximizes its lifespan and reduces environmental impact without sacrificing performance.

The Logitech G RS QR Adapter
The Logitech RS QR Adapter prioritizes compatibility and can be used with almost any 70- or 50.8-mm PCD front- or rear-mounted aftermarket wheel, including wheels from the well-known manufacturer MOMO. It connects to all compatible Logitech G Direct Drive bases on PC and features a quick-release function, making it easy to switch between wheels for different races. Use a single adapter for all your wheels and swap between them in just seconds.
The adapter, made from high-quality aluminum, is designed to enhance the response of TRUEFORCE feedback while reducing weight. With more detailed feedback, it offers quicker reactions and improved lap times.

The Logitech G RS Shifter & Handbrake
Enhance your sim racing experience with precise control through its 2-in-1 mode switching and settings in G HUB. Easily switch between sequential shifting and handbrake functions without needing any tools. Fine-tune the gear activation point and handbrake response curve for maximum accuracy.
The RS Shifter & Handbrake is designed to handle all driving styles and features versatile mounting options, a durable steel core clamp for the table, and an adjustable-height handle. All you need to focus on is perfecting your line control.
For an even more immersive experience, add a second RS Shifter & Handbrake. This setup delivers top performance across all racing disciplines.
