Ascher Racing F64-USB V3

German engineer and avid sim racer Martin Ascher has made a name for himself building high-standard sim racing equipment for the sim and real racing market, including a number of custom steering wheels.

As a follow-up to the popular AR F64-USB formula style wheel rim, Martin released the Ascher Racing F64-USB V3, with a Wireless F64-SC version coming in Q4/2022.

Compared to the F64-USB V1 model, the F64-USB V3 features new 12-position switches and two new thumb encoders.

The wheel features improved handle ergonomics with a slightly larger diameter, thinner base, and a modified shape on the top that makes it easier to press the top buttons. The motorsport rubber grips offer much more grip and have the perfect hardness (not too soft, not too hard) to prevent fatigue during endurance races.

The Ascher Racing F64-USB V3 Wheel Rim is available for €1,099.00 VAT included + Shipping. (The wheelbase comes without a QR)
