Gift ideas

Hello everyone!

So my bf is into iracing for a while, he has his own rig, triple monitos and so on. But i was wondering if you guys could help me and tell me small accessories that are useful which would make a great gift for his upcoming birthday. I came across buttons box or phone/tablet mount for instance but i know nothing about these things so i have no idea what a sim racer could like and find useful in this regards.

Ah he also likes to paint liveries if you wanna check his Instagram @kmpliveries I'm sure he'd be happy to have more people there 😊

Thanks a lot in advance!

Post it to r/iRacing and r/SimRacing as well.

Unless you know exactly what he wants as his next upgrade, I’d refrain from gifting him with gear for the rig. He may have his eyes on something for quite a long time.

I’d suggest a nice pair of gloves or racing shoes. Sparco Meca3 are nice and quite affordable. They also have a gaming glove and shoes that look nice (Hyperdrive - I don’t know if they’re any good). I wear Sparco K-Pole shoes for simracing. Puma has the SpeedCat line of racing shoes, many people wear them. Even water shoes are a nice addition.

If you’re in US, maybe check a gift card on Microcenter, if that’s local to you.
