Fanatec has launched its Black Friday sales for 2025, featuring hefty discounts on its range of direct drive wheelbases, steering wheels and cockpits.
Running until the 2nd of December 2025, Fanatec has some sim racing bargains on its website, with the price of its ageing 25 Nm Podium Wheel Base DD2 QR2 slashed to €999.95 / $999.99 from €1,499.95 / $1,599.99.
Thankfully, there are also deals on the Landshut-based manufacturer’s newer products, including the ClubSport DD and ClubSport DD+ wheelbases, which have been reduced to €599.95 / $699.99 and €799.95 / $899.99, respectively, down from €799.95 / $999.99 and €999.95 / $1,179.99.
Fanatec’s ClubSport DD was released towards the end of 2023, providing 12 Nm of torque, a QR2 quick-release system and PC compatibility.
The ClubSport DD+, on the other hand, was made available at the start of 2024 and featured a torque bump to 15 Nm, the same QR2 system as the DD, but with PC and PlayStation compatibility, making it a top choice for Gran Turismo 7 players.
Like the ClubSport DD, the DD+ is marked as ‘Xbox ready’, meaning both wheelbases can be used on Xbox consoles when fitted with an Xbox-compatible Fanatec steering wheel. All wheelbases mentioned also come with a three-year Fanatec warranty.
