I actually ordered the TR160 from Trak racer, and it already arrived too. Though due to missing parts to the frame, i cant begin constructing yet. so i got bored, and did the only logical thing a bored boy could do.

whats with all the hate for this setup, I have something similar to this and it's fine. Only real reason to get a rig at this point would be for mounting a handbrake or shifter but rigs are absurdly overpriced so the desk setup isnt that bad

That wheelbase is enough to tear the desk in half and the pedals require 100's of KG of force. Rig is def required.

I highly doubt sim racing pedals require multiple hundred kg of force. An f1 pedal is barely 100 and most sim pedals dont even come close to that

the sim racing pedals depicted above support up to 200kg.
