Amazon is offering some good deals on sim-racing gear on its 48-hour “Big Deal Days” extravaganza, beginning today.
Like “Prime Day“, held annually during the summer, the Big Deal Days events is an exclusive event for Amazon Prime subscribers. If you don’t already have an account, or it’s been a while since you’ve had one, a Prime subscription is usually free for a month every year or so — meaning you can sign up and, as long as you remember to cancel before the month is up, not be out of pocket hunting for bargains.
Big Deal Days offers discounts on a large range of products, with both set discounts and limited time and capacity “Lightning Deals” that range from modest to surprising, though there’s not often any particular rhyme nor reason to what’s discounted or by how much.
Nonetheless, there’s plenty of good deals if you’re a sim racer, not just for genre-specific accessories and hardware but related items like console hard drive expansions and displays.
Here’s the best deals we’ve found so far — feel free to let us know if you find something you think should be on here too — and you can use any of the following affiliate links below to support our site too!
Wheels
Logitech is the star of the show again, as it was on Prime Day. It looks like the direct drive Logitech G Pro wheel isn’t discounted again this time round, but there’s good discounts on the very popular entry-level models if you want to take the plunge into your first wheel set-up.
- Logitech G923 for PlayStation ($299.99 / reg. $377.73 / $77.74 savings / 21% off)
- Logitech G29 ($189.99 / reg. $299.99 / $110.00 savings / 37% off)
- Logitech G920 ($189.99 / reg. $299.99 / $110.00 savings / 37% off)
Rigs
There’s discounts here and there on driving rigs — mostly not from the household names you might be more familiar with, but several that are well-rated, and ideal for a budget buy or a trial run to see if you (or your spouse!) can live with it.
- Next Level Racing F-GT Lite ($299.99 / reg. $329.99 / $30.00 savings / 9% off)
- GTPLAYER Foldable Cockpit ($151.99 / reg. $199.99 / $48.00 savings / 24% off)
- Marada Cockpit ($119.26 / reg. $175.39 / $56.13 savings / 32% off)
- Marada Aluminum Cockpit ($448.39 / reg. $639.99 / $191.60 savings / 30% off)
Accessories
Add-ons like SSD expansions for the PlayStation 5 are always popular items — given the 825GB capacity of the original, and 1TB in the facelift; even the Pro only has 2TB — and you’ll find discounts here too. The 4TB version of the officially licensed WD Black drive in particular has a big price slash.
External drives are also discounted, which is great for storing your PS4 games to leave the SSD free for PS5 titles. We always love a discount on the BACKBONE One, which can transform your mobile phone’s Remote Play function with dedicated controls rather than on-screen options. It’s like a PlayStation Portal but a third of the price…
- BACKBONE One ($69.99 / reg. $99.99 / $30.00 savings / 30% off)
- Seagate 5TB Drive for PS5 ($129.99 / reg. $149.99 / $20.00 savings / 13% off)
- WD_BLACK 4TB NVMe Expansion Drive for PS5 ($294.49 / reg. $549.99 / $255.00 savings / 46% off)
