Description

Fanatec QR2 Wheel-Side – Secure Connection for Your Sim Racing Wheel

The Fanatec QR2 Wheel-Side is a motorsport-derived quick release system, originally developed for the 2022 BMW M4 GT3 race car and optimized for sim racing. Crafted entirely from diecast aluminum with a CNC-machined and black anodized finish, it ensures a rigid, play-free connection between your steering wheel and base.

Quick and Easy Attachment

Just push the wheel onto the base shaft – the spring-loaded locking pins automatically engage, providing a secure fit without any additional locking parts or adjustments. Removing the wheel is just as fast: press the release sleeve and pull.

Transfer Data and Power

The QR2 transfers power and data from a Fanatec base to a Fanatec wheel, ensuring seamless integration. It's compatible with all Fanatec bases equipped with QR2.

If you're looking for a precise, durable quick release that enhances your driving feel, the QR2 delivers.

Product Details

The QR2 is not just a connector – it's a performance upgrade. The aluminum body adds a premium feel and reduces weight compared to plastic alternatives.

Whether you're swapping wheels for different racing disciplines or just want a secure, rattling-free setup, the QR2 delivers the precision of a real race car system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the QR2 compatible with my Fanatec base?

The QR2 is compatible with Fanatec bases that have the QR2 socket. If you have an older base, you may need a QR2 adapter or to upgrade the base's shaft. Check Fanatec's compatibility page for your model.

Do I need to torque anything?

No, the QR2 uses a spring-loaded mechanism that automatically locks the wheel in place. There are no bolts or clamps to adjust, though it's a good practice to occasionally check that the quick release is clean and free of debris.

How do I remove the wheel from the base?

Grasp the metal ring (sleeve) on the wheel-side and pull it back toward the wheel. While holding it, pull the wheel off the base. The spring-loaded pins retract, allowing release.

Will the quick release add any play or flex?

No, the QR2 is designed to be rigid and play-free. The tapered shape and spring-loaded pins create a tight fit that eliminates flex, ensuring accurate input and force feedback transfer.

Is it strong enough for high-torque direct drive bases?

Yes, the QR2 is designed to handle the forces from Fanatec's direct drive bases, including high-torque models. The aluminum construction and locking mechanism are engineered for durability.

Great, but pricey

Works perfectly with my Fanatec base. Installation was easy and it feels secure. Just wish it came with the other side included for the price.

Good but not perfect

The quick release works as advertised, but I found the mechanism a bit stiff initially. It loosened up after a few uses, but the price still feels high for what it is.

Upgraded from QR1

The QR2 is a massive improvement over the QR1. The connection is much more solid, and there's zero play. I can feel more detail from the wheel base. Worth every penny.

Started rattling

After about three weeks, it developed a slight rattle. It still holds the wheel, but the rattle is annoying during racing. I expected better from Fanatec.
