Xbox and PlayStation are about the closest some people are going to get to racing or driving luxury cars. Though, driving with an analogue joystick control is not the most exciting craze in the world.

Yes, if you enjoy racing games you will make sure you drive your car with anything in your hands, even if it was a mini vice grip attached to just a pin sticking out the controller.

However, if you haven’t raced on any console with a gaming steering wheel, pedals at your feet or even in a bucket seat under your backside, then you haven’t experienced the real deal and the real fun of a racing game.

You know how the saying goes, “When you have the right tools for the job, it’s a lot easier to do the job and a lot more fun”.

Xbox and PlayStation accessories are pricey

Sadly, to achieve this first-class experience you need the moolah baby! So you have to ask yourself, is it worth it to spend the cash on something you won’t be using often?

A new set of pedals and steering wheel could easily set you back about $400 or more. That’s not even wireless and the best quality money can buy.

So the nag of a wired powered steering wheel is what you spending your money on. So if you not going big, just go mini pro!

This little wheel of fun is worth the look

When you have time on your hands and a 3D printer, life becomes life-changing. When you have everything at the power of your fingers, life is so much more entertaining and lazy as well.

Xbox and PS users can now enjoy racing games with a mini steering wheel. It will only set you back about $15. If you have a 3D printer even better and you can DIY it.

This is great for small kids (when you don’t want to damage any of your more expensive console accessories), and it works well for a quick race or two. The perfect mini accessory for a small taste of the pro experience.
