Impressive! Goes to show that practice and skill with any given setup can lead to results. I don't play racing or flying games in VR much because I get motion sick but I can imagine how actually looking into a turn like I do in real life would make my driving ability way better.I currently own two G27s. According to many who made the transition, the newer Thrustmasters are definitely better, especially with the pedals. I haven't tried it myself though. That said, with my lowly G27 and an Oculus Rift, I've become probably one of the top 100 drivers in Dirt Rally 2. Just got my first world record, and ranked 82nd, 47th and 25th in the World Series Rounds 1-3 respectively (with thousands competing). In 2019, I would've been happy with a top 1000 spot. The difference was the VR, not what wheel I used. However, I do now aspire to a better wheel and a motion platform setup. Actually, two of each, so we can have our pre-Covid race nights once we are post-Covid.
My bad, that was the T300 GT. The RS has the 3 pedal setup, which appears to be a fair deal better built.Impressive! Goes to show that practice and skill with any given setup can lead to results.

I highly recommend against most Thrustmasters. I'll upload pictures of the t300 to show how flimsy some of it is compared to logi.
Yes, their new T-LCM pedals look good but are more expensive than the fanatecs and you probably don't get nearly as much customization.
If you are used to the G27 I recommend you stay with it. For comparison I put the G29 pedals beside the t300rs pedals. For some reason the aluminum is oxidizing a lot. Sure the thrustmaster is made out of reinforced plastic but they really do feel flimsy compared to any other pedal I have used. Few pictures of the t300 wheel to show how it looks nice but is actually just molded plastic that they did not bother removing the overhang from. I don't have sensitive hands but those small ridges and holes would give me blisters.
If you feel like it is time to upgrade maybe try mixing and matching wheel bases and pedals. You play on PC so it should be way easier to do that.

How is your experience so far?i will say if you order fanatec pedals, make sure you add in the pedals to that you get the $29 discount. the default bundle only discounts it $10.
my rig is on the way will report back to let you know. csl elite, p1 xbox wheel, standard pedals with loadcell brake add on. Logitech shifter with an O-ring sequential mod and amazon 16bit handbrake. using the gt omega stand.
i'd say the shifter/handbrake from fanatec is not worth it since you can use the logitech and the O-ring mod for like $80-85 compared to the $200+ fanatec.
