QR2 Base-Side Quick Release

The Fanatec QR2 Base-Side (Type-C) is a motorsport-derived quick-release mechanism made from diecast aluminium with a CNC-machined finish. It upgrades Gran Turismo DD Pro and CSL DD wheel bases to the QR2 standard. The tapered shape ensures a tight fit and the anodised surface adds durability while allowing easy wheel detachment. It connects to QR2 Wheel-Side, QR2 Pro Wheel-Side, or QR2 Lite Wheel-Side components.

Compatibility limits

This accessory only works when the steering wheel is also equipped with a QR2 Wheel-Side, QR2 Pro Wheel-Side, or QR2 Lite Wheel-Side. Supported wheels include the CSL Universal Hub, CSL Universal Hub V2, ClubSport Universal Hub V2, Podium Hub, and various CSL Elite, ClubSport, and Podium steering wheels such as the McLaren GT3, BMW GT2, Formula V2, RS, F1 Esports, BMW M4 GT3, and WRC models. Older QR1 wheels cannot be used with this base-side unit.

Installation notes

The package includes the QR2 Base-Side unit measuring 17.2 cm x 11 cm x 6.7 cm with a gross weight of 0.62 kg. Installation involves mounting the base-side to the wheel base and clamping the wheel-side onto the steering wheel. The improved clamp ring design aids alignment, but the tapered fit requires careful seating to avoid cross-threading or an insecure lock. Ensure both sides are QR2 specification before assembly.
