 Welcome back here to the channel. As you can see, we have a new box, NRG Innovations. We have one of the new lightweight sim wheels that we're gonna be taking a look at today and seeing how actually light they are. So without further ado, let's see which wheel I've chosen. As you can see, also beautiful packaging, as always from NRG Innovations. And the wheel we've chosen is this right here. And that's this Nirochrome scale styled lightweight sim racing wheel. Definitely a very sweet looking wheel. And of course we have the horn button and everything in the box. So we're gonna take a look at actually how light is this wheel compared to my plethora of NRG Innovations wheels. Oh, we're dropping some formula drift cars. We have my Alcatara suede, my Alcatara suede and deep dish. And of course the OG Mint Green and Nirochrome. We're gonna put a new little rabbit on there. It's kind of coming off. So we're gonna take the weight of basically all these wheels and we're gonna be checking it compared to the new lightweight sim wheel. So we're gonna grab a scale over here. The rim is definitely very beautiful and awesome looking. We're gonna open it up, take a look at it and see exactly how light this actually is. So let's open this up, get the scale out here and we'll continue from there. All right, so we did open up the wheel and as you can see the Nirochrome and scaling and that NRG logo that is implemented into there. We have a nice leather finish on the wheel as well as a very beautiful grip on the back for finger grips and of course thumb grips for when you're doing racing It's extremely light off the grab. How light is it actually compared to other wheels? So we set this one aside over there and we're gonna start with my Alcaterra and Suede wheel that they sent me. We're going to put that on there. And if you can't, slide it over there. It's two pounds and two ounces for two pounds, 2.0 ounces on that Alcaterra Suede wheel with no dish. So pretty hefty wheel. This is one of the ones the rims they did send me as well as the other Alcaterra Suede NRG. Big thank you to them. So before we continue, we should guys check out their new NRG Innovations website with all the information on all the new sim gear and everything. It is live. So make sure you guys check out the new NRG website www.getnrg.com, g-e-t-n-r-g.com of course. So next rim on the block is the deep dish Alcaterra and Suede wheel. So let's take a look at that one. Set that one back there so we can actually see the weight. Two pounds, 1.6 ounces. So a little bit lighter than the first wheel that we measured. So, and it probably has to do with this is solid thick spokes, no cutouts. And this one has of course, you know, the cutouts in the spokes. So, the OG Mint Green and Neuro Chrome wheel. The original wheel that I had on the channel, this one comes in at two pounds, 0.8 ounces. So, how light is the new wheel compared to those? The new lightweight sim wheels that I have from them comes in at a whopping 1 pound, 3.8 ounces. So a good pound lighter than the predecessor wheels that I was using. So it's definitely a huge weight loss for this wheel. Now how does this compare to say the Factor G920 wheel? Well, we have one of those, so we're gonna take a look at that. We're gonna put that one over there. So this is the Fanatec wheel that came on my Fanatec setup. And this wheel is pretty hefty, actually. This wheel is a one pound, 14 ounces. So it's a pretty hefty wheel. Now, Factor G920 wheel. We still haven't had Factor G920 wheel because this is what you'd be taking off a G920 to put this on. So just for reference sake, 1 pound, 3 ounces, 3.8 ounces. Factor G920 wheel with the center hub, 1 pound, 0.9 ounces. So, 350 millimeter lightweight energy innovations wheel is actually a very good wheel. Actually just as light as the Factor G920 wheel. So will this put wear and tear on your G920? I don't think so at all because it weighs about the same. So with that being said, let's get this on the rig, take it for a rip and actually feel how this feels because it's definitely a lot lighter. I definitely love how the rim looks and feels. So we're gonna put it on the rig and we're gonna go for a full send on it. So let's hop over to the sim rig, get this mounted on the wheel and go full send sideways. All right, so we are on the simulator. We do have the wheel all hooked up onto our fan-detect base. We just hooked it on with the screws without having, whether we've been putting the bezeling or anything on it right now, this is just gonna be a first impression, the first impression of the wheel. It's solid, it doesn't move, it doesn't flex. There was, I was, you know, pleasantly surprised with how it feels. I love the, you know, the leather feel and it's kind of a good grippy feel. So we do have it on here. We are at a track that you guys all know on the channel, Aussie Driftland and in car you all know and that is my 350Z. So we're gonna take this for the first rip with how everything I have it set now. I'm not sure if we're gonna have to adjust our force feedback or turn it down some but we're definitely gonna see. So let's go full send. We're gonna drop that a little bit. There we go. So we're gonna go full send here at Aussie. Oh, I can already tell that there is, you can see the wheel kind of has a little twitch to it because of how high the force feedback is. So I think we're gonna have to dial the feedback back because, you know, a couple of pound difference makes a huge difference in how the wheel rotates and reacts. So, oh yeah. The wheel response is actually much quicker. As you can see it's kind of got a little twitch to it and I think that's because it's rotating so, so much easier. You know, it would definitely be very more pronounced on say a G920 or things of that nature but this wheel is definitely very, very light. So, I think I have a sticker back here. Yep, yep. It was a quality control sticker I was feeling on the back of the wheel. So we're gonna dial our feedback actually back on our Fanatec wheel. We are actually 75%. So we're gonna dial it back to 60 and see if that works because if we can dial our force feedback back a little bit, it's gonna make everything feel much nicer. Oh yeah, it definitely rotates much quicker and much easier. Definitely super excited to have this wheel on my rig now. You know, energy innovations coming out with the lightweight sim wheels making it less stress on your rig and feel all the torque from your wheel. You can feel every little, like I guess bump and crack on this car right now because without the base having to throw such a heavy wheel around, you know, it's gonna be able to utilize its force feedback better and you know, energy did a great job with, you know, making the wheels light as possible but still very sturdy. And I'm, you know, I like the grip feel of it. The leather slide into my hands is definitely a cool thing because I'm so used to the suede wheels. So I wanted a leather style wheel. So this is kind of, you know, great to have leather style wheel, you know, in my arsenal of wheels because we all know you can have too many wheels. And I think that was the correct force feedback change that I needed to make. And I love the black with the scaled style neurochrome in the middle. So like I said, make sure you guys go to getenergy.com to check out all their sim racing stuff for their thrust master bases as well as their G920, you know, hub bases and everything like that that they have. So you can put a full size rim on your rig as well. And with the lightweight wheels, you know, definitely going to be a great addition to the sim rig. I, like I said, I'm giving these two of these other rims to my teammates. One of them is rocking a thrust master and they always rocking a G920. So I'll be getting their impressions and stuff on the wheel as well once they start running them. So I may pull out the G920 and throw this on my G920 as well. But so may she just follow me on all social media all which found in the description box below. I hope you guys enjoyed this little video, this little tidbit of the new sim wheel that is on the rig here for the channel. You can be doing a lot more with this wheel and things of that nature. I'm getting the flow of it. So make sure you follow me on all social media all which are found in the description box below. As always, I thank you guys for coming back and watching Hot People Rabbit. I'll see you guys on the track.
