Gamers using sophisticated race-car simulators have traditionally had two options when picking a steering wheel and pedal setup for their home: go cheap but lose realism, or buy an expensive, high-end chair that takes up a lot of space. The new Playseat Challenge X—Sim Racing Seat, Logitech G Edition finally finds a middle ground. At $299, the 26-lb. carbon-steel frame is a snap to assemble and folds down for easy storage. But it also accurately mimics life in the fast lane, with six seating positions depending on your driving style.
