JQ Werks Madtrace® GEN2 PODIUM LINE Racing Steering Wheel System For BMW F Series
Description
Experience the next generation of driver control with the JQ Werks Madtrace® GEN2 PODIUM LINE Racing Steering Wheel System, engineered exclusively for BMW F-Chassis models. Designed for professional-grade performance, precision, and integration, this system redefines what’s possible in racing technology. As the first fully integrated steering wheel solution to combine CAN bus and LIN bus technologies in one hub, the PODIUM LINE delivers seamless communication with factory electronics—offering true plug-and-play functionality without wiring modifications or splicing.
Every component is developed for track-focused performance and OEM-level precision, providing complete driver control, lightning-fast response, and a clean, fully wireless setup that enhances cockpit efficiency and ergonomics.
Precision Engineering and Build Quality
Crafted from 6061-T6 billet aluminium and 5-axis CNC machined for ultimate accuracy, the PODIUM LINE Steering Wheel System ensures both exceptional strength and durability. Finished in black anodising, it perfectly complements the matching adapter hub and quick-release mechanism—also CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminium—for long-lasting reliability and premium aesthetics.
Advanced CAN Bus Integration
Exclusive to the PODIUM and FORMULA Line systems, JQ Werks’ proprietary CAN Bus integration unlocks over 20 additional factory functions (model-dependent). Drivers can control features such as high beam flash, turn signals, traction control, wipers, and shift lights—all from the steering wheel itself. This system ensures OEM-level communication and safety while dramatically enhancing convenience and control during competitive driving.
MadtraceLAB 1.0 Customisation Platform
The GEN2 PODIUM LINE is fully programmable through MadtraceLAB software or the optional Driver Information Display (DID). Drivers can customise button functions, RGB lighting, and system profiles with ease. A discreet USB-C port allows for software updates and new feature integration, ensuring the wheel evolves with future firmware releases.
Multi-Profile and Button Layout Mapping
Store and recall up to three custom profiles directly from the wheel’s internal memory. Perfect for track sessions, driver swaps, or varying conditions, each layout can assign unique functions across the eight face buttons and dual joystick knobs. Quickly switch between profiles using a rear-mounted button, changing your wheel’s layout and lighting setup on the fly for instant adaptability.
RevLEDs CAN Bus Shift Light
Enhance your track awareness with RevLED shift lights integrated via CAN Bus technology. These ultra-responsive LEDs illuminate progressively and flash red at redline, providing precise visual feedback without delay—ideal for high-performance driving.
Optional OLED Driver Information Display (DID)
For advanced telemetry, the optional OLED DID module replaces the horn cap to display real-time data such as speed and system status. It also enables direct in-car editing of button maps, lighting colours, and brightness without connecting to a computer—making on-the-fly adjustments effortless.
Optional Dual-Paddle System
The optional motorsport-grade dual paddle module, made from billet 6061-T6 aluminium, adds even more versatility. Each paddle is fully programmable, supporting custom functions beyond gear shifting. Both automatic and manual transmission vehicles are supported, allowing drivers to assign any action they desire—such as indicators, boost settings, or drive mode toggles.
Important Notice
The JQ Werks Madtrace® GEN2 PODIUM LINE Racing Steering Wheel System is designed strictly for off-road, racing, and track use only. Removing the OEM airbag system poses a safety risk for road use.
