Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Pro (8 Nm)
A direct-drive base putting out 8 Nm of peak torque with Fanatec's QR2 quick release, a solid enthusiast-tier option. The standout is its PlayStation and Gran Turismo licensing, making it the pick for PS racers or anyone running cross-platform PS+PC setups. PC-only racers should skip it, since the CSL DD is effectively the same hardware for less.
