Ascher Racing F28-SC Wireless Wheel Review by The SRG

The last few years, 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.

Barry Rowland of the Sim Racing Garage reviews the new Ascher Racing F28-SC Wireless Wheel for the Simucube Direct Drive wheelbases. As usual, during his in-depth review, Barry disassembles the unit and checks out all the parts, build quality, and inner workings of the product before performing a hands-on test.

The Ascher Racing F28-SC Wireless Wheel for SimCube is on sale at the Ascher Racing Webstore for €669.00 (inc. VAT).
