Written by MOZA Racing has launched a new online configurator alongside a fresh product lineup called the DriveCraft Series, giving simracers a direct way to build a complete direct drive setup — wheelbase, wheel, and pedals — from a single page on the brand’s official site. The MOZA DriveCraft Series configurator bundles existing MOZA hardware into ready-made packages rather than introducing new components, and it comes with launch pricing that MOZA says starts at $559, with savings of up to $128 on select configurations through September 30, 2026.
Introduction to MOZA’s DriveCraft Series Launch
The DriveCraft Series addresses a common sticking point for anyone building a rig: matching a wheelbase to a compatible wheel and pedal set without piecing together compatibility research across three separate product pages. Instead of shopping for a base, a rim, and a pedal set individually and hoping the mounts and cabling line up, buyers can now pick from preset bundles built around MOZA’s own hardware. The series centers on two direct drive wheelbases — the R9 V3 and the R12 V2 — paired with a choice of wheel and MOZA’s SRP2 pedal set, all sold as a single package through the new configurator on mozaracing.com.
For simracers researching their first rig, this kind of guesswork has traditionally been one of the biggest barriers to entry. Anyone who has spent an evening cross-referencing compatibility charts across a manufacturer’s site knows how easy it is to end up with mismatched hardware, and our own direct drive buying guide covers plenty of examples where shoppers picked a wheelbase and wheel that technically connect but don’t suit the racing they actually do. The DriveCraft Series is MOZA’s answer to that friction, packaging the decision-making into a single guided flow.
What the New MOZA DriveCraft Series Configurator Offers
The configurator itself is the more interesting piece of this launch. Rather than browsing separate product pages for a wheelbase, then a wheel, then pedals, users select a starting base and the tool walks them through the remaining choices in one continuous flow, showing the final bundle price as they go. It’s a shopping tool first and foremost, but it also doubles as a compatibility check — every option presented is confirmed to work with the base already selected, which removes the guesswork that trips up a lot of first-time buyers.
- Choice between the R9 V3 (9 Nm) and R12 V2 (12 Nm) direct drive wheelbases as the starting point
- Wheel selection limited to the KS or CS V2P rims, matched to the chosen base
- SRP2 pedal set included as the standard pedal option across DriveCraft bundles
- Live price updates as components are added or swapped
- Bundle discounts applied automatically at checkout, valid through September 30, 2026
Customization Options and Compatibility
Compatibility is really the point of the whole exercise. MOZA’s KS and CS V2P wheels are aimed at different driving styles — one leaning toward open-wheel and GT-focused layouts, the other built more for touring, GT, and rally-style setups — so having them surfaced side by side inside the configurator, rather than buried on separate product pages, makes it easier to match a wheel to the kind of racing someone actually plans to do. The base and pedal choices are more straightforward, since the R9 V3 and R12 V2 differ mainly in torque output rather than in what accessories they support.
That said, torque output still matters when picking a base, and it’s worth reading up on what each wheelbase actually feels like on track before committing to a bundle. Our MOZA R12 V2 review goes into more detail on how the higher-torque option behaves in practice compared with the lighter R9 V3, which can help narrow down which DriveCraft configuration makes sense for a given setup.
DriveCraft Bundle Offers Breakdown
At its core, the DriveCraft Series comes down to two wheelbase tiers, each available with a choice of wheel. The R9 V3 is the lower-torque option at 9 Nm, aimed at simracers who want a strong direct drive feel without the price or overhead of a higher-torque base. The R12 V2 steps up to 12 Nm, giving more headroom for stronger force feedback effects and a setup that scales better if someone plans to keep the base for years rather than upgrade again soon. Both wheelbases can be paired with either the KS or CS V2P wheel, and both bundles ship with the SRP2 pedal set as standard, so the pedal side of the equation stays consistent regardless of which base a buyer picks.
MOZA frames the pricing structure around a starting point of $559, with savings of up to $128 available on select bundle configurations compared to buying the same components individually. Those numbers apply to US pricing specifically; MOZA notes that figures will vary by region, including the EU, UK, Australia, and Japan, though it hasn’t published a full region-by-region breakdown alongside the launch.
Bundle Pricing Comparison Table
| Bundle | Wheelbase Torque | Wheel Options | Pedals Included | Starting Price (US) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| R9 V3 DriveCraft Bundle | 9 Nm | KS or CS V2P | SRP2 | From $559 |
| R12 V2 DriveCraft Bundle | 12 Nm | KS or CS V2P | SRP2 | From $559 (savings up to $128 on select builds) |
MOZA hasn’t broken out individual list prices for every possible wheel-and-base combination, so the table above reflects the launch pricing structure it has confirmed rather than a line-by-line price sheet. The $128 maximum savings figure applies to specific configurations within the range rather than uniformly across every bundle.
Why the Configurator Matters for Sim Racers
Bundled hardware isn’t a new idea in simracing — plenty of brands sell wheelbase-and-wheel combos — but pairing bundles with a configurator that actually walks buyers through compatible options is a step most competitors haven’t fully committed to. For someone building their first direct drive rig, the biggest risk isn’t picking a bad wheelbase; it’s ending up with a wheel or pedal set that technically works but isn’t well suited to the kind of racing they want to do, or discovering after purchase that two components don’t talk to each other as cleanly as expected. By locking the configurator’s choices to pre-verified combinations, MOZA is effectively doing that research for the buyer before the order is placed.
For more experienced simracers, the appeal is less about hand-holding and more about convenience and price. Buying a wheelbase, wheel, and pedal set as one bundle at a discount beats sourcing the same three items separately, provided the specific combination on offer already matches what that racer wants. The catch is that the DriveCraft Series, as launched, is built around a fixed set of components — the R9 V3, R12 V2, KS, CS V2P, and SRP2 — so it won’t help anyone chasing a mix outside that lineup.
It’s also worth noting what the MOZA DriveCraft Series configurator doesn’t do: it isn’t a general-purpose builder for MOZA’s entire catalog, and it won’t surface every accessory the brand sells, like additional rims, quick releases, or add-on pedal upgrades outside the SRP2 set. Buyers who want a more open-ended setup will still need to shop MOZA’s individual product pages, but for anyone happy with the preset combinations, the configurator remains the fastest route from browsing to checkout.
