Good deals for those who've picked up a Fanatec wheel from the recent deal.
TR80 Lite is a pre-order for collection in "early September". Full payment required now, so you're definitely taking a risk.
Note that neither deal includes a seat - you'll need to buy a seat (for the TR80 Lite) or use an office/gaming chair (for the FS3).
Other way around - bracket is included, not the slider. Slider is $49 extra.
I am sure those sliders used to be around $150, I want to swap out my fix backed seat for an adjustable i took out of an 86, mainly so i can hook up the seat warmers for winter racing.
Ahh bugger, yeah you're right, I was just looking at one of the pictures.
Seat brackets aren't included either though.
The slider was included in the last easter deal (it was actually cheaper by selecting it), and there was also a free keyboard tray mount. Unfortunately not this time, but still a very good price for an aluminium extrusion rig. Rock solid and very easy to customise.
I was ready to jump on this deal but delayed the purchase for a week until I could find a nice car seat at the local wreckers, now I have to wait until September…
That's the only thing holding me back right now. I don't want to wait 3 months and I especially don't want to hand over $400+ as effectively an interest free unsecured loan.
I did ask their CS about just paying a deposit but was given an unequivocal no.
$137.99 shipping to WA :( - Also subscribe for an instant $20 voucher…. my total is 943.99… must resist..
Have you tried using the $20 code champ. It doesn't seem to work for me for whatever reason.
Yeah worked for me hey (temptation was too much) they emailed me this code, I assume one time use but go-ahead n try!) TR08FD7TGP6X
Cheers bud yeah it appears to be a unique code. For some reason the emailed code didn't work for me initially so I signed up again and the second one they sent worked. So picked up the FS3 wheel stand and the Fanatec DD wheel mount for $183 delivered using the $20 code.
Cheers again for mentioning the code on here have a good one chief! 🍻
Also cheers OP good find! 🍺
I have the FS3.
Way better than any eBay budget setup. It's REAL heavy once setup on a CSL Elite + Thrustmaster TLCM pedals (for reference) and can be a little awkward to move around when not folded up because of the shape/weight but is super solid when anchored to chair.
Can you anchor it to office chair? Any extra attachment for that?
I'm currently using a piece of rope to tie my office chair to my wheel stand. It's not ideal but it works.
Just bought one last night thinking it was pre-order. Had a notification today that it was shipped, and seems like there's still 4 left
$419 is pretty good for what you're getting with the TR80 Lite… seat slider is included but not seat brackets. Their red recliner chair is on sale and takes it up to $663.
Or get a car seat from a wreckers or supercheap/etc… just need a suitable bracket.
