For racing, a steering wheel and pedals are required, as well as a gearbox included. If a player wants to feel like a pilot of a huge Boeing or a military fighter, he will need the appropriate props.

Professionals in car simulators and street racing games opt for advanced steering wheels with feedback. However, such an accessory would also be useful for a beginner. The meaning of this device is that the steering mechanism is designed in such a way that when the player drives on an uneven section of the road in the game, all the holes, bumps, and roughness will be felt on the steering wheel. Previously, the vibration effect was used, but it is the force feedback function that helps achieve the maximum level of realism. For beginners, a simple inexpensive steering wheel without pedals is suitable. To learn how to drive in the game, amateurs do without additional gadgets, but those who want to achieve maximum realism can purchase pedals, a gearbox, and even a handbrake for drifting.
