When Moza Racing told me it was sending over one of its latest simulator setups, I assumed I knew what was coming. A racing wheel, presumably, given that most of my experience with simulator hardware has involved driving cars quickly. So when a rather large box arrived containing the Moza R5 Pro Truck Driving Simulator bundle, it was something of a surprise. This clearly wasn't the racing wheel I had expected. Instead, there was the expected 6Nm wheelbase and a set of pedals, but instead of Moza's small (slightly too small for some) standard 280mm ES racing wheel, there was a thoroughly massive 400mm steering wheel designed for the considerably more agricultural business of driving trucks. And that immediately got me thinking about SnowRunner. SnowRunner was my COVID-era obsession. While a lot of people took shelter from the pandemic-splattered reality of the outside world in cosy games like Animal Crossing, I spent far too many hours grinding enormous trucks across impossible terrain, hauling improbable loads ridiculous distances and experiencing previously unheard-of levels of frustration when everything went wheels-up at the last bend. The highs were correspondingly ridiculous, particularly when a well-timed winch saved hours of hard work. So that's where I ended up spending most of my time with the R5 Pro, rather than the more obvious Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator. As it turns out, a truck simulator wheel makes an awful lot of sense for a game where the objective is often less about getting somewhere quickly and more about persuading a 12-tonne truck up a muddy hill without burying it axle-deep in a swamp. That's a big wheel The first thing you notice about the Moza setup is just how enormous that truck wheel is. At 400mm, it's considerably larger than the wheels normally
