In the build up to the release of the brand new direct drive wheel base, the Fanatec CSL DD, Fanatec have released a series of videos answering customers questions.

In the latest video, published on the 1st June 2021, Fanatec CEO Thomas Jackermeier answers plenty of questions regarding the CSL DD wheel base. And one of the most important questions answered is the pre-order start date.

When Do Fanatec CSL DD Pre-Orders Start?

Fanatec have officially announced that pre-orders of the Fanatec CSL DD wheel base start this week.

Baring in mind, this video announcement was made on Tuesday 1st June, this week could be any time before the 6th June 2021. So release date for pre-orders will be before the 6th June. Although many potential customers wont be able to place their pre-order on this date, due to Fanatec’s pre-ordering wave system.

Fanatec Pro-Ordering Waves

Thomas Jackermeier revealed that pre-orders will be offered in three waves. Depending which wave you as a customer fall into, dictates when exactly you’ll be able to place your pre-order.

Only customers who fall into the waves below will be able to place their pre-order of the new Fanatec CSL DD wheel base at certain times.

Fanatec explained their wave system should counter some of the large interest that has been generated in this new direct drive wheel base. And it should allow all customers to place a pre-order before the release of the wheel.
